摘要: 【目的】对水稻叶片早衰突变体W330进行遗传分析及精细定位,获得控制突变表型的基因。【方法】用60Co-γ辐射诱变籼型水稻恢复系中恢8015,从突变体库获得一份叶片早衰突变体W330。对该突变体进行表型观察和主要农艺性状调查。利用多代自交稳定的突变体W330与粳稻品种02428杂交,观察F1和 F2的表型,并统计F2群体中早衰突变表型与正常野生型的分离情况,分析该突变表型的遗传行为。利用构建的F2群体进行精细定位和候选基因分析,然后对候选基因进行DNA测序、酶切分析、表达分析、酶活测定及进化分析。【结果】突变体W330从三叶期开始出现叶片衰老,直至抽穗期及黄熟期。与野生型相比,突变体W330株高变矮、分蘖减少、叶片变窄、抽穗期不变、每株有效穗数、每穗着粒数和结实率亦显著降低。W330与02418杂交的F1表现正常,F2群体中正常植株与早衰突变植株的分离比符合3﹕1,表明突变体W330的突变性状受1对隐性核基因控制。利用F2定位群体及SSR、Indel标记,最终将目标基因定位在第3染色体短臂上2个分子标记CD-5与CD-7之间,物理距离约为21.5 kb。基因预测表明该区域共有4个完整的ORFs。其中,LOC_Os03g0131200编码一个过氧化氢酶OsCATC,基因组序列分析表明,W330突变体中的该基因从ATG开始第109位,在第一个内含子的末位发生了一个C到G的颠换,造成第一个内含子没有剪切,最终导致翻译提前终止,酶切试验验证了这一突变位点。与野生型亲本中恢8015相比,W330突变体在三叶期叶片中的过氧化氢酶的活力下降了47.8%,而过氧化氢含量上升了2.7倍。由此,推定W330与OsCATC等位。系统进化分析发现,OsCATC与水稻中同源的过氧化氢酶不在同一进化分支上。实时荧光定量PCR发现,与其野生型相比,突变体W330叶片中的OsCATA和OsCATB的表达量显著上升,而OsCATC的表达量没有明显的变化。推测,这3个高度同源的基因在水稻体内可能存在互补机制。【结论】W330突变体基因是已报道的过氧化氢酶基因OsCATC的等位基因。W330突变体在第一个内含子上发生的一个点突变造成可变剪切的发生,使得水稻一个过氧化氢酶失活,导致突变体W330突变表型的出现。

Abstract: 【Objective】The objective of this study is to conduct genetic analysis and gene mapping for the rice early leaf senescence mutant W330.【Method】An early leaf senescence mutant, designated as W330, was isolated from the progeny of 60Co-γ-treated indica rice cv. Zh8015. Phenotypes of the W330 mutant were observed and its main agronomic traits were analyzed under field conditions in Hangzhou and Sanya. After the W330 mutant was crossed with 02428, leaf phenotypes of the F1 progenies,the segregation ratio of normal and early senescence plants in the F2 populations were investigated. An F2 population derived from the cross of cv. 02428 with W330 was used for genetic analysis and gene fine mapping. Candidate gene assay was conducted by gene sequencing, enzyme digestion, gene expression and phylogenetic analysis.【Result】W330 plants showed leaf senescence phenotype from 3-leaf-stage to maturity stage. Compared with wild-type parent Zhonghui8015, the plant height,tiller and blade width of W330 decreased significantly, and the number of productive panicles per plant, the number of spikelets per panicle and seed setting rate were also significantly reduced. All F1 plants generated by crossing early senescence mutant W330 with 02428 showed normal leaf. The segregation ratios of normal plants and early senescence plants in two F2 populations were both 3:1, indicating that the W330 was controlled by a single recessive nuclear gene which was mapped on the short arm of chromosome 3. With developed SSR and Indel markers, the gene was finally narrowed to an interval of 21.5 kb between markers CD-5 and CD-7. Among four ORFs in this region, the LOC_Os03g0131200 encoding a Catalase (OsCATC) was probably the candidate gene. The sequencing analysis and enzyme digestion revealed the variable splicing in the first intron was probably responsible for the early senescence phenotype, which was confirmed by assay of gene expression and enzyme activity. Compared with wild-type parent Zhonghui8015,the content of catalase activity decreased by 47.8% and the content of H2O2 increased by 2.7 times. It was speculated that the W330 mutant gene was allelic to OsCATC gene. Otherwise, phylogenetic analysis revealed that OsCATC was an independent evolution in rice. Expression analysis of catalase genes by real-time PCR showed that OsCATA and OsCATB have a significant increase in the expression of leaves, while the expression of OsCATC has no significant changes. It was a speculated that the three highly homologous genes have complementary mechanisms in rice plants. 【Conclusion】 The W330 mutant gene was allelic to OsCATC gene. A point mutation in introns of OsCATC gene in the W330 mutant makes catalase inactive, resulting in the leaf senescence phenotype.
