An improved procedure for production of white spruce (Picea glauca) transgenic plants using Agrobacterium tumefaciens.

An efficient and reproducible procedure for the transformation of white spruce (Picea glauca [Moench] Voss) embryogenic tissues was developed using A. tumefaciens-mediated gene transfer. Rapidly dividing white spruce embryogenic tissues were co-cultivated with disarmed A. tumefaciens strains containing additional copies of the virulence regions from plasmid PToK47. The plasmid pBi121, containing the neomycin phosphotransferase II (nptII) gene providing kanamycin resistance as a selectable marker and the beta-glucuronidase (uidA) reporter gene, was used as binary vector. The highest frequency of transformation (15 transformed tissues g(-1) FW of treated embryogenic tissue) was obtained with 5-d-old tissues grown in liquid medium and co-cultivated with Agrobacterium for 2 d in the same medium but containing 50 microM acetosyringone. Recovery of kanamycin-resistant tissues was improved when tissues were first grown for 10 d on a timentin-containing medium (400 mg l(-1)), to prevent bacterial overgrowth, before application of the selection pressure. After 6 weeks on kanamycin-selection medium, resistant tissues were obtained and showed stable uidA expression. The presence of the transgenes was demonstrated by PCR analysis and their integration into the genome was confirmed by Southern hybridization. Transgenic plants were regenerated from transformed tissues within 4 months after co-culture.     

Additional virulence genes and sonication enhance <Emphasis Type="Italic">Agrobacterium tumefaciens</Emphasis>-mediated loblolly pine transformation

Additional virulence (vir) genes in Agrobacterium tumefaciens and sonication were investigated for their impact on transformation efficiency in loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.). Mature zygotic embryos of loblolly pine were co-cultivated with disarmed A. tumefaciens strain EHA105 containing either plasmid vector pCAMBIA1301 or vector pCAMBIA1301 with an additional 15.8-kb fragment carrying extra copies of the Vir B, Vir C, and Vir G regions from the supervirulent plasmid pTOK47. pCAMBIA1301 contains hygromycin resistance and the beta-glucuronidase (GUS) reporter gene. Expression of GUS was observed after 3-6 days of co-cultivation, with peak expression at approximately 21 days. The highest numbers of GUS-expressing areas were visible up to 21 days after co-cultivation, declining rapidly thereafter. Both transient and stable transformation efficiencies increased when the explants were sonicated before co-cultivation and/or the additional virB, virC, and virG genes were included with the pCAMBIA1301 plasmid T-DNA. Use of the plasmid with additional vir genes and sonication dramatically enhanced the efficiency of Agrobacterium-mediated gene transfer not only in transient expression but also in the recovery of hygromycin-resistant lines. Stably transformed cultures and transgenic plants were produced from embryos transformed with A. tumefaciens EHA105 carrying pCAMBIA1301 or pCAMBIA1301+pTOK47 in the three families of loblolly pine. The presence of the introduced GUS and hygromycin phosphotransferase genes in the transgenic plants was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction and Southern hybridization analyses.     

Expression of Kanamycin resistance introduced byAgrobacteriutn binary vector intoNicotiana tabacum andAtropa belladonna

Kanamycin resistance gene was introduced into tobacco and Atropa belladonna cells by binary vectors, based on Agrobacterium, by means of inoculation of seedlings. The plasmid pGA472, which carries chimaeric kanamycin resistance gene expressed in plants was introduced by transformation into A. tumefaciens Bo542, harbouring pTiBo542 plasmid and A. rhizogenes 8196, carrying pRi8196 plasmids and the resulting two strains were used as binary vectors. Tobacco tumors induced by A. tumefaciens Bo542(pGA472) grew as undifferentiated, kanamycin resistant tissues. Those induced by A. rhizogenes 8196(pGA472) differentiated into transformed plants. When cultivated in vitro on 200 μg ml^-1 kanamycin medium, they showed yellow green sectoring, which was not selected out during vegetative propagation. Atropa belladonna tissues transformed by both A. tumefaciens Bo542(pGA472) and A. rhizogenes 8196(pGA472) differentiated plants which grew well on 200 μg ml^-1 kanamycin as green, non-sectoring plants; sensitive cells obviously did not divide at all. Selection of Atropa belladonna transformed tissues on kanamycin medium is much more efficient than selection of transformed tobacco tissues with introduced kanamycin resistance gene.

插入玉米Ds转座因子的水稻转化群体及其分子分析

转座子标签法是一种利用转座因子插入高等植物基因组中造成基因突变,然后通过分离转座因子插入的旁邻顺序,进而克隆出突变基因的策略。这种策略在高等植物功能基因组学的研究中是十分有用的。为此目的,将玉米的Ds因子及bar基因连接至载体pCAMBIA1300的T-DNA区域中,构建成重组Ti质粒pDsBar1300。pDsBar1300中T-DNA区域中的潮霉素抗性基因可在转化过程中用作水稻转化植株的选择标记。插入在Ds因子中的bar基因可追踪转化后代的Ds因子。pDsBar1300通过根瘤农杆茵介导引入水稻品种中花11号的幼胚组织。从各转化愈伤组织中获得了1400株独立的Ds水稻转化植株。通过PPT抗性检测和PCR分析证明了水稻转化植株中Ds因子的整合。Southernblot分析了转化植株基因组中Ds因子的插入拷贝数,其中单拷贝插入比率约占70％。这些插有Ds因子的水稻转化植株,当引入自主型的Ac因子反式活化Ds因子后,可使Ds因子跳跃到不同位点上,就可得到更多的突变植株。     

Cloning and expression of the yeast galactokinase gene in an Escherichia coli plasmid.

This report describes the construction and isolation of a plasmid, derived from pBR322, which carries a BglII restriction fragment of DNA containing the galactokinase gene from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This was accomplished by the following procedure: (1) Purified galactokinase mRNA, labelled with 125I, was hybridized to BglII digests of yeast DNA employing Southern's filter transfer technique to identify a restriction fragment containing the galactokinase gene. (2) This fragment was partially purified by agarose gel electrophoresis, ligated into the BamHI site of pBR322 and transformed into Escherichia coli to generate a clone bank containing the galactokinase gene. (3) This bank was screened by in situ colony hybridization with galactokinase mRNA resulting in the identification of a plasmid carrying this gene. This plasmid DNA hybridized with the galactokinase mRNA to the same extent in the presence of absence of a large excess of unlabelled mRNA from cells that were not induced for galactokinase synthesis, while the same amount of unlabelled galactose-induced mRNA reduced the hybridization by 95%. When this plasmid was introduced into an E. coli strain deleted for the galactose operon it caused the synthesis of low levels of yeast galactokinase activity.     

Isolation and genetic analysis of an Agrobacterium tumefaciens avirulent mutant with a chromosomal mutation produced by transposon mutagenesis.

A transposon 5 (Tn5) insertion was introduced into the genome of A. tumefaciens (A-208 strain harboring a nopaline type Ti-plasmid) using a conjugative pJB4JI plasmid containing Tn5. Five thousand transconjugants were assayed for virulence on carrot (Daucus carota L.) disks; 54 isolates were avirulent or very attenuated. The cellular localization (plasmid or chromosome) of the Tn5 insertion in those isolates were identified by Southern hybridization analysis. An avirulent mutant (B-90 strain) with the Tn5 insertion in the chromosome was selected and characterized. The mutant had the same growth rate as that of the parent strain in L-broth. The mutant and the parent strain had similar attachment ability to carrot root cells. Tn5 was inserted into one site of the chromosome. The wild-type target chromosomal region (1281 base pairs) was cloned and sequenced. An open reading frame (ORF) consisting of 395 base pairs was identified. The wild-type DNA fragment (1.6 kb) containing the ORF introduced into B-90 strain complemented the avirulent phenotype of the strain. A soluble protein was predicted from the ORF. The Tn5 was inserted near the 3'-terminal of the ORF. Homology search of this ORF found no significant homology to known genes and proteins. Thus, the ORF identified in this paper seems to be a new chromosomal virulence gene of A. tumefaciens.     

根癌农杆菌介导的白腐丝状真菌——黄孢原毛平革菌的转化

利用农杆菌介导的方法成功地对黄孢原毛平革菌（Phanerochaete chrysosporium）进行了遗传转化。将含有潮霉素磷酸转移酶融合基因的双元质粒pCH61300转入根癌农杆菌（Agrobacterium tumefaciens）208中,然后用该转化菌分别感染黄孢原毛平革菌的分生孢子和原生质体,获得16株可能的转化子,经复筛,共获得6株潮霉素抗性水平为100μg/mL的稳定转化子,分生孢子和原生质体的转化频率没有明显差别。PCR检测结果显示,抗性基因已导入黄孢原毛平革菌细胞中;Southern杂交表明,TDNA以单拷贝形式整合到黄孢原毛平革菌基因组中。其中的一个转化子菌落形态与原野生型菌株相比有所不同,菌丝稀薄,分生孢子较少。利用分生孢子转化更为简便易行,无需特殊的设备和制备原生质体,此方法为深入开展该菌的遗传转化研究奠定了基础。     

农杆菌介导将Bt杀虫蛋白基因导入优良玉米自交系的研究

高度耐盐双价转基因烟草的研究

随着全球性人口的增长和土地退化的加剧,开发利用广阔盐碱地和干旱土地的需要日益迫切。植物生物技术的日臻完善,为培育高效耐盐植物迎来了一丝曙光。在高渗条件下,耐盐的微生物或植物细胞通过增加胞内一些相溶性溶质的浓度来维持渗透压的平衡。这些可溶性溶质包括无机离子、糖类、多元醇、氨基酸和生物碱等。通过基因工程手段,使细胞内积累脯氮酸⑴、甜菜碱⑵、甘露醇⑶、海藻糖⑷,能够不同程度地提高转基因烟草的耐盐性。多元醇含有多个羟基,亲水性能强,能有效维持细胞内水活度。山梨醇、甘露醇等己糖分子结构、理化性质和生理功能相近。故此．我们认为：不同糖醇在转基因烟草中的积累．可能具有协同(或累加)效应,有希望更大地提高植物耐盐性。我们在获得大肠杆菌mtlD基因(编码l-磷酸甘露醇脱氢酶)和gutD基因(编码6-磷酸山梨醇脱氢酶)克隆⑸的基础上,获得了分别表达mtlD和gutD基因的单价转基因烟草,并首次证实了gucD基因的表达,能显著地提高转基因烟草的耐盐性⑹。本文工作进一步报道同时表达大肠杆菌mtlD和gutD基因双价转基因烟草的高效高度耐盐性。
