摘要:

种子贮藏过程中的耐老化特性是作物生产的一个重要性状。然而,有关水稻生长素上调小RNA基因种子耐老化能力调控作用知之甚少本研究报道了一个水稻生长素上调小RNA基因OsSAUR33参与调控种子耐老化能力在种子萌发阶段,与未老化的种子相比,在老化种子中OsSAUR33表达被显著诱导。相应的,与野生型(WT)相比,在自然老化和人工老化条件下,OsSAUR33突变体种子活力显著下降OsSAUR33基因通过增加种子发芽过程中活性氧(ROS)水平,从而提高老化种子的活力。在种子发芽过程中,与野生型相比,在OsSAUR33突变体的老化种子中ROS积累显著延迟。此外,过氧化氢(H2O2)处理能显著提高不同水稻品种老化种子的活力。总之,本研究结果为今后改善水稻种子耐老化特性提供重要理论和技术支撑。

Abstract:

Seed aging tolerance during storage is generally an important trait for crop production, yet the role of small auxin-up RNA genes in conferring seed aging tolerance is largely unknown in rice.  In this study, one small auxin-up RNA gene, OsSAUR33, was found to be involved in the regulation of seed aging tolerance in rice.  The expression of OsSAUR33 was significantly induced in aged seeds compared with unaged seeds during the seed germination phase.  Accordingly, the disruption of OsSAUR33 significantly reduced seed vigor compared to the wild type (WT) in response to natural storage or artificial aging treatments.  The rice OsSAUR33 gene promotes the vigor of aged seeds by enhancing their reactive oxygen species (ROS) level during seed germination, and the accumulation of ROS was significantly delayed in the aged seeds of Ossaur33 mutants in comparison with WT during seed germination.  Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) treatments promoted the vigor of aged seeds in various rice varieties.  Our results provide timely theoretical and technical insights for the trait improvement of seed aging tolerance in rice.
