摘要:

水稻作为世界第一大粮食作物,杂交制种中常遇到父母本花时不遇的问题且母本的颖花关闭慢会导致种子发霉影响品质。植物激素脱落酸ABA在植物响应非生物胁迫中起着至关重要的作用。前人研究表明,外源ABA能够促进颖花关闭然而其分子机制以及内源脱落酸对颖花关闭的作用尚不清楚。本研究通过改变水稻OsNCED3OsPYL1的表达水平探究内源ABA水平的改变对颖花关闭时间的影响,以及ABA通过糖转运蛋白对颖花关闭的作用机理。结果表明,过表达OsNCED3能够提高颖花内源脱落酸水平,从而使颖花关闭比野生型提前5.91分钟OsNCED3下调使颖花关闭推迟5.08分钟;进一步发现OsPYL1能够调控内源脱落酸水平同时改变对ABA敏感性,从而使过表达和敲除该基因的颖花关闭时间分别提前9.84分钟和延迟12.78分钟导致敲除株系种子裂颖率提高15.4%通过qRT-PCR检测发现,ABA对颖花关闭的促进作用可能是通过信号通路下游糖转运蛋白的响应来完成,且OsPYL1OsSWEET4能够在细胞膜上发生相互作用。以上结果表明,脱落酸能够促进水稻颖花关闭,增强植物ABA的敏感性会促进该效果,其分子机制主要与下游响应ABA信号通路的糖转运蛋白相关,特别是OsSWEET4

Abstract:

Rice is the world’s largest food crop, but it often encounters flowering asynchronization problems during hybrid rice seed production.  In addition, the slow closure of female florets leads to seed mildew and affects the quality.  The hormone abscisic acid (ABA) plays a crucial role in plant responses to abiotic stresses.  Previous studies showed that exogenous ABA promotes floret closure, although the molecular mechanisms and effects of endogenous ABA on floret closure remain unknown.  In this study, the effect of endogenous ABA on floret closure and the molecular mechanism by which ABA promotes floret closure through sugar transporters were investigated by changing the expression levels of OsNCED3 and OsPYL1 in rice.  The results showed that overexpression (OE)-OsNCED3 increased the endogenous ABA level of florets.  Florets closed 5.91 min earlier and OsNCED3 gene knockout line delayed the closure of florets by 5.08 min compared with the wild type.  In addition, OsPYL1 regulated the endogenous ABA content and changed the sensitivity to ABA such that the floret closure times for OE and CRISPR-Cas9 (CR) were 9.84 min earlier and 12.78 min later, respectively, resulting in an increase in the split husk rate to 15.4%.  The gene expression levels of some sugar transporters (STs) changed.  The OsPYL1 and OsSWEET4 proteins could interact on the cell membrane.  These results indicate that ABA promotes the closure of rice florets and the enhanced sensitivity to ABA promotes this effect even more.  The molecular mechanism is mainly related to downstream sugar transporters that respond to the ABA signaling pathway, especially OsSWEET4.
