[Method] The tender leaf blade of wild barley under salt stress was taken as the experimental material. The primers were designed according to the homology of rbcS gene sequences of wheat and barely in Genbank; then PCR amplification,recovery,ligation,transformation and sequencing of rbcS gene were carried out. [Result] Two rbcS genes including rbcS1 and rbcS2 with the length of 1 252 and 908 bp respectively were cloned from the barely genome. rbcS1 and rbcS2 were both composed by two exons and one intron. The exons length of the two genes was the same of 525 bp,encoding 174 amino acids,and the homology between them was 96%; however,the intron length of rbcS1 and rbcS2 was 448 and 107 bp respectively.展开更多
The 3.0 kb BglⅡ+XbaⅠrestriction fragment of millet(Setaria italica) chloroplast genome containing rbcL gene had been cloned into pBluescript SK (-) vector, then the restriction map and the 1990 bp complete nucleotid...The 3.0 kb BglⅡ+XbaⅠrestriction fragment of millet(Setaria italica) chloroplast genome containing rbcL gene had been cloned into pBluescript SK (-) vector, then the restriction map and the 1990 bp complete nucleotide sequence was determined. The 1431 bp coding region of the gene consists of 476 amino acid residues with a predicted molecular weight of 52679 D. The 389 bp 5′ upstream region has the putative -10 box, -35 box and SD sequence, similar to that of procaryotes. The 170 bp 3′ downstream region contains three stem loop structures. Comparison of the rbcL gene sequences between C 4 plants and several C 3 plants reveals no difference in the coding region, promoter and 3′ downstream region. It might be concluded that the rbcL gene sequence has no relation with its cell specific expression.展开更多

To investigate the role of the MEP pathway in plant development and metabolism, we carried out detailed analyses on a dxr mutant （GK_215C01） and two DXR transgenic co-suppression fines, OX-DXR-L2 and OX-DXR-L7. We found that the dxr mutant was albino and dwarf. It never bolted, had significantly reduced number of trichomes and most of the stomata could not close normally in the leaves. The two co-suppression lines produced more yellow inflorescences and albino sepals with no trichomes. The transcription levels of genes involved in tricbome initiation were found to be strongly affected, including GLABRA1, TRANSPARENT TESTA GLABROUS 1, TRIPTYCHON and SPINDLY, expression of which is regulated by gibberellic acids （GAs）. Exogenous application of GA3 could partially rescue the dwarf phenotype and the trichome initiation of dxr, whereas exogenous application of abscisic acid （ABA） could rescue the stomata closure defect, suggesting that lower levels of both GA and ABA contribute to the phenotype in the dxr mutants. We further found that genes involved in the biosynthetic pathways of GA and ABA were coordinately regulated. These results indicate that disruption of the plastidial MEP pathway leads to biosynthetic deficiency of photosynthetic pigments, GAs and ABA, and thus the developmental abnormalities, and that the flux from the cytoplasmic mevalonate pathway is not sufficient to rescue the deficiency caused by the blockage of the plastidial MEP pathway. These results reveal a critical role for the MEP biosynthetic pathway in controlling the biosynthesis of isoprenoids.展开更多
