目的:探讨miRNA的表达差异与水稻种子活力的相关性。方法:通过人工老化处理获得不同活力的水稻种子,然后运用real time qPCR技术,对不同活力种子的胚中miR164c和miR168b的表达量进行相对定量分析。结果:水稻种子随活力下降至丧失活力以...目的:探讨miRNA的表达差异与水稻种子活力的相关性。方法:通过人工老化处理获得不同活力的水稻种子,然后运用real time qPCR技术,对不同活力种子的胚中miR164c和miR168b的表达量进行相对定量分析。结果:水稻种子随活力下降至丧失活力以前,miR164c的表达量也相应下降;但丧失活力的种子中,miR164c的表达量显著回升。miR168b的表达量则随着种子活力的降低而呈先升后降的模式;在死种子中,miR168b的表达量维持在较低的水平。结论:初步推测miR164c和miR168b的表达量与调控水稻种子活力的变化相关,但它们的调控机制可能存在差异。展开更多
