Abstract:

【Objective】FKF1 is a key gene that plays an important role in many plant flowering pathways. In order to study the function of FKF1 in maize, ZmFKF1 editing mutants were obtained by using CRISPR/cas9 technology. In this study, we used these mutants as materials to clarify the role of ZmFKF1 in maize flowering pathway through phenotypic analysis and the expression analysis of key flowering genes. The result provide a theoretical basis for molecular breeding and genetic improvement of maize.【Method】 ZmFKF1 gene was cloned from B104, and its structure was determined by sequence alignment. The targeted sequences of ZmFKF1 were designed according to the principle of CRISPR/Cas9 technology, then these targeted sequences were compared and analyzed in maize reference genome, and the non-specific target site was excluded. Finally, ZmFKF1-T1 on exon 1 of ZmFKF1 was selected to construct CRISPR/cas9 gene editing expression vector. At the same time, B104 immature embryos were selected as explants to transform by Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation, the resistant calli were obtained through resistance screening, and then buds and roots were induced. The T0 generation ZmFKF1 gene editing positive plants were obtained and verified by using the specific primers of cas9. The target site amplification and sequencing analysis was used to determine whether the T1 transgenic lines had mutation at the expected target site of ZmFKF1 and the type of mutation, and screened the homozygous lines of ZmFKF1 site mutation. After obtaining the above materials, the flowering phenotypes of these materials were statistically analyzed with wild type as control. At the same time, qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of key genes that related to flowering pathway in the above materials and further verify the phenotype. 【Result】The target sequence was designed on exon1 of ZmFKF1 to construct gene editing expression vector. The transgenic lines were obtained by genetic transformation realized site directed mutagenesis of ZmFKF1. A total of 18 T0 generation ZmFKF1 gene-edited lines were obtained, and 6 of them were generated mutation on the exon1 with two different mutations types, including single base insertion and multiple bases deletion. The phenotype analysis shown that the flowering time of three T2 generation ZmFKF1 homozygous lines was delayed compared with wild type B104. Furthermore, the expression levels of three related flowering pathway genes (ZmGI, conz1 and ZmZCN8) in the mutants were significantly lower than those in the wild type B104 (P<0.05), which was consistent with the late flowering phenotype of the mutants. 【Conclusion】CRISPR/Cas9 technology can be used to edit ZmFKF1 to obtain gene editing mutants, and the flowering time of these mutants is significantly delayed compared to wild type.
