CDS are most commonly obtained using complementary DNA (cDNA) derived from messenger RNA (mRNA) extracted from plant tissues and generated by reverse transcription. However, some CDS are difficult to acquire through this process as they are expressed at extremely low levels or have specific spatial and/or temporal expression patterns in vivo. These challenges require the development of alternative CDS cloning technologies. In this study, we found that the genomic intron-containing gene coding sequences (gDNA) from Arabidopsis thaliana, Oryza sativa, Brassica napus, and Glycine max can be correctly transcribed and spliced into mRNA in Nicotiana benthamiana. In contrast, gDNAs from Triticum aestivum and Sorghum bicolor did not function correctly. In transient expression experiments, the target DNA sequence is driven by a constitutive promoter. Theoretically, a sufficient amount of mRNA can be extracted from the N. benthamiana leaves, making it conducive to the cloning of CDS target genes. Our data demonstrate that N. benthamiana can be used as an effective host for the cloning CDS of plant genes.展开更多

Previous article reported a novel NLR protein SUT1 (SUPPRESSORS OF TOPP4-1, 1), which is involved in autoimmunity initiated by type one protein phosphatase 4 mutation (topp4-1) in Arabidopsis, however, its role in planta is still unclear. This study employed Nicotiana benthamiana, a model platform, to conduct an overall structural and functional analysis of SUT1 protein. The transient expression results revealed that SUT1 is a typical CNL (CC-NBS-LRR) receptor, both fluorescence data and biochemical results showed the protein is mainly anchored on the plasma membrane due to its N-terminal acylation site. Further truncation experiments announced that its CC (coiled-coil) domain possessed cell-death-inducing activity. The outcomes of point mutations analysis revealed that not only the CC domain, but also the full-length SUT1 protein, whose function and subcellular localization are influenced by highly conserved hydrophobic residues. These research outcomes provided favorable clues for elucidating the activation mechanism of SUT1.展开更多

This technique can be applied to small amounts of materials in which a whole view of CaM mRNA distribution can be obtained. The authors revealed that CaM mRNA expression changes dramatically before and after fertilization. Especially interesting is that a prominent CaM mRNA band appears between the egg apparatus and polar nuclei temporarily during the period of pollination and fertilization. The band disappears just prior to fertilization and expands to a fan_shaped region that occupies the micropylar portion of the embryo sac. After fertilization, CaM mRNA accumulates in the elongated zygotes with higher concentration in their chalazal portion than in the micropylar portion. Such an asymmetrical pattern continues to manifest in the early proembryos. It is supposed that CaM mRNA may be involved in the early events and signaling steps associated with double fertilization and zygote polarization in higher plants.展开更多

[Method] NbDAD1 gene was isolated from N. benthamiana by using RT-PCR technology and over-expression vectors were con- structed to obtain NbDADl-overexpression resistant plants and NbDADl-overexpres- sion resistant plants carrying HA tag. [Result] The 351 bp long NbDAD1 gene was cloned from N. benthamiana; recombinant plasmids pCAMBIA1301-NbDAD1 and pCAMBIA1301-NbDAD1HAtag were constructed successfully; 50T0-generation N. ben- thamiana Hyg-resistant transgenic lines of three genotypes were obtained, including 23 positive transgenic plants. [Conclusion] This study laid the foundation for investi- gating the specific functions of NbDAD1 gene in N. benthamiana and exploring the possible functional mechanism of DAD1 protein in programmed cell death of plants.展开更多

Transgenic leaf plates and differentiated seedling leaves were verified by GUS histochemistry, PCR, and RT-PCR. Results showed that transgenic N. tabacum with Ppc-cDNA of E. crusgalli had relatively strong differentiation ability. However, N. tabacum after transformation of complete DNA sequence of Ppc genes in Z mays had relatively poor ability of growth. The differentiated green seedlings had the phenomenon of yellowing; and photosynthesis ability of leaves was poor. This might be caused by the misidentification and wrong splicing in transcription. This indicated that the expression rate of monocotyledonous complete DNA might be reduced in the monocotyledonous cells with relatively far genetic distances. Detection results of showed that Pn in most transgenic N. tabacum with Ppc-cDNA of E. crusgalli was was higher than that in control, which preliminarily proved that PEPC of monocotyledonous plant E. crusgalli had certain regulatory effects on photosynthesis of N. tabacum.展开更多

[ Method] The toxieities of nine fungicides against P. parasitica were measured using growth rate method. On this basis, the fungicides with good effects were selected to compound with metalaxyl, and the optimum complex ratio was confirmed. [Result] The toxicity of metalaxyl was the strongest with EC50 of 2. 130 5μg/ml; followed by carbendazim, mancezeb and dimethomorph with EC50 of 2.357 9, 2.639 8 and 2. 778 8 μg/ml. The effect of cyazofamid was the poorest with EC50 of 6. 278 8 μg/ml. The optimum complex ratios of dimethomorph, carbendazim and mancezeb with metalaxyl were 40： 60, 30：70 and 20： 80, and their co-toxicity coefficients were 138.80,124.25 and 115.00, respectively. [ Conclusion] The complex agents had application and promotion value, which could be used to carry out further field trials.展开更多
