This paper reports a promoter trapping method to generate mutants in the filamentous fungus, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, by ATMT insertion of a trapping vector （pCAHPH） that carries a promoterless hygromycin phosphotransferase （hph） gone. Transformants were selected on the media containing 200 ~mL hy^omycin B, and screened for pathogenicity-related gene mdtants. Their pathogenicity-related mutants T-DNA flanking sequences were then cloned and analyzed. Hph genes were amplified from mutant genomic DNA but not from wild-type DNA, indicating that the phenotypic alternations of these mutants were the results of T-DNA inser- tion. T-DNA flanking sequences were obtained using modified themud asymmetric interlaced PCR. Two right-sided flanking sequences were highly homologous to proteins from other species.展开更多

Two promoter-trapping vectors, designated as pCBGFP and pEGFPHPH, were constructed and transformed into protoplasts of M. grisea. A library of 1077 transformants resistant to hygromycin B was generated. Of which, 448 transformants were found to express eGFP gene in different structures of M. grisea. Three transformants grew slowly, 5 transformants decreased in conidiation and 7 transformants reduced in pathogenicity greatly among these 448 transformants. Eleven transformants were checked by genomic southern blot randomly, and 9 of which were single-copy insertions. The promoter trapping technique has been applied successfully in M. grisea and can be used as a tool for functional genomic analysis.展开更多

Southern blot analysis revealed that about 40% of these mutants were single copy integration and the average T-DNA insertion number was 2.28. By extensive phenotyping in the field, quite a number of agronomically important mutants were obtained. Histochemical GUS assay with 4,310 primary mutants revealed that the GUS-staining frequency was higher than that of the previous reports in various tissues and especially high in flowers. The T-DNA flanking sequences of some mutants were isolated and the T-DNA insertion sites were mapped to the rice genome. The flanking sequence analysis demonstrated the different integration pattern of the right border and left border into rice genome. Compared with Arabidopsis and poplar, it is much varied in the T-DNA border junctions in rice.展开更多
