Abstract:

【Objective】Plasma membrane Intrinsic Proteins (PIPs) exist widely in the membrane system of plant cells, which are essential to water transport and water balance in plant. The aim of this study is to explore the function of ZmPIP2;6 in plant water stress tolerance, and provide potential gene resources for new varieties of stress tolerance maize breeding. 【Method】Amino acid sequences of ZmPIP2;6 was analyzed and compared with other PIPs that involved in water stress tolerance. To verify the subcellular localization of ZmPIP2;6, ZmPIP2;6-GFP infusion vector was constructed and assessed using maize protoplasts isolated from leaves of maize seedlings. Tissues from root, stem, mature leaf, immature tassel, immature ear, endosperm and embryo of maize were isolated. Samples from root and leaf of maize were collected at different time after PEG or NaCl treatment. Total RNA were extracted, and expression pattern of ZmPIP2;6 in different tissues or under water stress condition was investigated by qRT-PCR. Transgenic Arabidopsis plants that overexpressed ZmPIP2;6 were generated and identified. The phenotype of ZmPIP2;6 overexpression transgenic Arabidopsis that tolerated to osmotic, salt or drought stress were monitored and primary root length and leaf water loss rate were measured. A number of stress responsive genes in ZmPIP2;6 overexpression Arabidopsis were detected under drought or salt condition.【Result】Analysis and comparison of the amino acid sequences showed that ZmPIP2;6 shared the same conserved structural domains and had a high degree of sequence similarity with other PIPs. The subcellular localization was assessed using maize protoplasts indicated ZmPIP2;6 was located on the plasma membrane. qRT-PCR result showed that ZmPIP2;6 was highly expressed in tassel. Treatment with PEG or NaCl resulted in induced expression of ZmPIP2;6 in root and leaf of maize. Overexpression of ZmPIP2;6 in transgenic Arabidopsis showed enhanced osmotic and salt stress tolerance in MS media plate and improved drought stress tolerance in soil condition compared to wild type. Expressions of related genes in the stress signaling pathway were changed in ZmPIP2;6 overexpression Arabidopsis under drought or salt condition. 【Conclusion】 Expression of ZmPIP2;6 was up-regulated under osmotic or salt stress condition. Overexpression of ZmPIP2;6 in Arabidopsis enhanced osmotic, salt and drought stress tolerance. A number of stress responsive genes in ZmPIP2;6 overexpression Arabidopsis were affected under salt or drought stress condition. These results indicated that ZmPIP2;6 might be involved in plant water stress responsive pathway.
