By employing RT-PCR method, full length cDNA of cotton delta-12 oleate desat- urase gene GhFAD2-1 containing an open reading frame of 1 158 bp was cloned for constructing RNAi vector. A 515 bp long specific fragment of this gene was se- lected for constructing ihpRNA vector under the control of a seed-specific promoter NAPIN, named pFGC1008-NAPIN-FAD2-1; meanwhile miRNA gene-silencing vector pCAMBIA1302-amiRNA-FAD2-1 targeting GhFAD2-1 was also constructed.展开更多

Using PCR-based amplification, two different restriction sites at both ends of tobacco Bax inhibitor-1 (NtBI-I) gene were created, respectively, which made the construction of ihpRNA gene silencing vector more efficiently. Then, NtBI-1 genes were inserted into Multiple Cloning Site (MCS) of pGSA2285 respectively to form Bax inhibitor-1 ihpRNA gene silencing vector, named as pGSA4285, containing sense and anti-sense BI-1 sequence which was spliced by chalcone synthase intron. Combined PCR identification and enzyme restriction analyses, the results showed that Bax inhibitor-1 ihpRNA gene silencing vector had been constructed and transferred into Agrobacterium tumefaciens EHA105 successfully, which laid a foundation for the further study on the function of BI-1 in plant PCD regulation.展开更多
