Abstract:

【Objective】 Soybean(Glycine max (L.) Merr.) seed generally form vitality from their physiological maturity period (R6 or R7 period). However, the seed is susceptible to high temperature and humidity (HTH) stress during this period. This will lead to a decline in seed vigor. The results will lay a foundation for further studying the mechanism of seed vigor formation under abiotic stress. 【Method】 Primer Premier 5.0 was used to design primers, and the full length cDNA sequence of GmLEA was isolated by using the cDNA of leaves of cv. Ningzhen No.1 and Xiangdou No.3 as template. The homologous amino acid sequence of GmLEA was searched by BLAST at NCBI, the protein sequences were multiple aligned using MEGA 6.0 and DNAMAN, and the phylogenetic tree was constructed using the N-J algorithm of MEGA 6.0. Yeast two-hybrid experiments were performed to verify the interaction of GmLEA and GmCDPKSK5 in yeast. A subcellular localization and bimolecular fluorescent complementation (BiFC) vector were constructed, The interaction between GmLEA and GmCDPKSK5 in tobacco leaf cells and the subcellular localization of the encoded protein were analyzed by gene-gun-mediated transformation of tobacco leaves. In addition, the tissue-specific expression of GmLEA gene and the expression pattern of GmLEA gene under HTH were analyzed by qRT-PCR, respectively. The pBI121 fusion expression vector was constructed and three homozygous overexpressed Arabidopsis lines were obtained through Agrobacterium- mediated method, and three independent homozygous T3 transgenic lines were used for analysis. 【Result】 The cDNA sequence of GmLEA gene contains a 1 377 bp open reading frame (ORF), and the subcellular localization result showed that the encoded protein was located on the cell membrane. The results of yeast two-hybrid rotation verification showed that GmLEA could interact with GmCDPKSK5 in yeast. In addition, bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) experiment showed that GmLEA could interact with GmCDPKSK5 on cell membrane of tobacco leaf cells. The results of tissue-specific analysis showed that GmLEA gene had higher expression levels in developing and mature seeds of both cultivars. The expression level of GmLEA was increased first and then decreased during the development of cv. Xiangdou No. 3 seeds. During the process of seed development of cv. Ningzhen No.1, the level of GmLEA expression was on the rise and reached the highest at 60 days after flowering. After high temperature and high humidity (HTH) stress, the expression of GmLEA was decreased at 96 h in cv. Xiangdou No. 3, and the other time points were increased. However, the expression was decreased at 24 h in cv. Ningzhen No.1. The germination potential, germination rate and seed vigor of GmLEA gene in transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana were significantly (P<0.01) higher than those of the wild type plants under HTH stress. 【Conclusion】 The GmLEA is involved in the formation of seed vigor under HTH stress,and has specific interaction with GmCDPKSK5, It is speculated that they may participate in the formation of seed vigor under HTH stress.

Key words: soybean, GmLEA, GmCDPKSK5, high temperature and high humidity stress, seed vigor
