摘要:

【目的】果实颜色是影响茄子商品价值的重要性状。通过解析两白果亲本杂交构建的F2代群体紫红果单株和白果单株特殊分离比产生的原因,为阐明茄子果实颜色形成的调控机制奠定基础。【方法】以花青素合成结构基因ANSP)突变的白花白果母本19141、未知突变基因位点的白花白果父本19142及其紫红果F1、果色分离的F2群体为试验材料,探讨上位基因控制的茄子果色遗传规律;克隆已知的茄子果色相关DSmMYB1)和YSmDFR)基因,探明父本19142突变的果色基因和方式;开发基因内分子标记,对F2进行基因分型以及与其他果皮无花青素沉着茄子亲本杂交验证,解析上位基因调控茄子果色遗传的分子基础。【结果】E4450 F2紫红果和白果单株分离比符合3对上位基因控制的27﹕37的分离比率,19141的P基因位点发生突变,基因型为DDppYY,19142的DY基因位点同时发生了突变,基因型为ddPPyy。克隆测序发现,19142的SmMYB1发生可变剪接,导致第2外显子跳跃。19142的SmDFR起始密码子上游-326 bp的SNP(C→G),导致启动子缺失了1个CAAT-box顺式作用元件;在第2外显子最后一个碱基G变C,发生剪切位点突变。基于SmMYB1SmANSSmDFR遗传变异,开发了基因内分子标记对E4450 F2单株进行基因分型,结果发现基因型与表型完全吻合;D_P_Y_对应紫花紫红果表型,ddP_Y_基因型对应紫花白果表型,D_ppY_D_P_yyD_ppyyddppY_、ddP_yyddppyy基因型对应白花白果表型。19142与白果自交系19147(dtdtPPYY)和绿果自交系19144(DDPPyy)分别杂交,结果发现F1果色分别为白色和绿色,果皮无花青素沉着,这进一步证明了19142是SmMYB1和SmDFR两个基因同时发生突变【结论】2个果皮无花青素沉着的茄子亲本杂交,如果F1代果皮有花青素沉着,且F2代有花青素沉着单株和无花青素沉着果色单株分离比符合27﹕37,则是由于其中的一个亲本在花青素合成通路的1个基因位点发生了突变,另外一个亲本在花青素合成通路的另外2个基因位点发生了突变。两个果皮无花青素沉着亲本杂交,F1果皮能够合成花青素而呈现紫红,是由于3个上位基因位点DPY同时处于显性状态,花青素合成得以恢复。结构基因SmANSSmDFR突变抑制植株各个部位花青素合成;转录因子SmMYB1调控具有组织特异性,其突变抑制果皮花青素合成,却不抑制花中花青素合成。

Abstract:

【Objective】Fruit color is an important trait that affects the commercial value of eggplant fruit. By analyzing the causes for the special segregation ratio of individual plants with purple red peel and with white peel in the F2 population constructed by crossing between two white-fruit parents, this paper could lay the foundation for elucidating the mechanism of epistatic gene interaction on regulating eggplant fruit coloration.【Method】The white-flower and white-peel female parent 19141 with mutation at the structural gene ANS involving in the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway, white-flower and white-peel male parent 19142 with unknown mutation genes involving in the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway, and their F1 population with purple red peel and F2 population with separate peel colors were used to explore the epistatic inheritance of eggplant fruit coloration. Genes and their mutation patterns were studied by cloning the known genes, D (SmMYB1) and Y (SmDFR) related to peel color in male parent 19142. Molecular basis of peel color-controlling epigenetic genes was analyzed by developing molecular markers based on genetic variations of peel color genes, analyzing the relationship between genotype and phenotype in E4450F2 population, and crossing with other eggplant parents without anthocyanin pigmentation in peel.【Result】The segregation ratio of plants with purple red fruit and white fruit in E4450 F2 progeny was consistent with the segregation ratio of 27:37 controlled by three pairs of epistatic genes, that is, mutations occurred at the P gene locus in 19141, with genotype DDppYY, and mutations occurred at both D and Y gene loci in 19142, with genotype ddPPyy. The results of cloning and sequencing showed that alternative splicing occurred in SmMYB1 of 19142, which led to the second exon skipping. In 19142, SNP (C→G) in the promoter region’s -326 bp upstream of the start codon resulted in the absence of a CAAT-box cis-acting element in SmDFR gene. An SNP, G to C, at the last base of the second exon, was annotated as splicing mutation, which might cause abnormal function of SmDFR gene in 19142, resulting in the eggplant peel’s inability to synthesize anthocyanin. Based on the genetic variation of SmMYB1, SmANS and SmDFR, the functional molecular markers were developed, and the progenies of E4450F2 were genotyped. The results showed that genotype and phenotype were completely consistent. D_P_Y_ corresponded to phenotypes of purple flower and purple red peel, ddP_Y_ corresponded to phenotype of purple flower and white peel, D_ppY_, D_P_yy, D_ppyy, ddppY_, ddP_yy and ddppyy genotypes corresponded to white flower and white peel phenotypes. When 19142 was crossed with white-peel inbred line 19147 (dtdtPPYY), and green-peel inbred line 19144 (DDPPyy), it was found that the fruit color of the two F1 progenies were white and green, respectively, and there was no anthocyanin pigmentation in the peel, which further proved that 19142 was a double mutant in SmMYB1 and SmDFR.【Conclusion】When two eggplant parents without anthocyanin pigmentation in the peel were crossed, the peel of the F1 generation had anthocyanidin pigmentation, and the segregation ratio of plants with anthocyanin pigmentation and non-anthocyanin pigmentation in F2 population was 27:37, it was because one of the parents had a mutation at a gene locus in the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway, and the other parent had mutations at two other loci in the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway. When two parents without anthocyanin pigmentation were crossed, the peel of F1 was able to synthesize anthocyanin and present purple red color, which was due to the simultaneous dominance of three epistatic gene loci D, P and Y, and anthocyanin biosynthesis was restored. Mutation of the structural gene of SmANS or SmDFR inhibited anthocyanin biosynthesis in all parts of the plant. The regulation of transcription factor mutation SmMYB1 was tissue specific, and its mutation inhibited anthocyanin biosynthesis in the peel, but did not inhabit anthocyanin biosynthesis in the flower.
