Integration and Expression of Target Gene in cry2A*-Transgenic Early Japonica Rice with Insect Resistance
To investigate the expression characteristics of the target gene in transgenic cry2A* insect resistant early japonica rice, the study employed the T9 generation of transgenic cry2A* early japonica rice line ‘Songjing 9 (cry2A*)’ as experimental material. The transcription levels of the cry2A* gene in various organs at the tillering and heading stages were detected by quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR), and the expression levels of Bt protein in various organs at the tillering, heading and filling stages as well as in brown rice at the full ripening stage were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).The results showed that the transcription levels of the cry2A* gene varied among the same tissues of different transformation events and among different tissues of the same transformation event. The transcription levels at the heading stage were higher than those at the tillering stage, and the tissue-specific expression pattern was in the order of leaves > young panicles > culm-sheaths. In terms of temporal expression, the Bt protein levels showed the pattern of filling stage > heading stage > tillering stage in leaves and culm-sheaths, and heading stage > filling stage in young panicles; the Bt protein concentration in brown rice was the lowest at the full ripening stage. In terms of spatial expression, the pattern was leaves> culm-sheaths at the tillering stage, leaves>young panicles>culm-sheaths at the heading stage, and leaves > culm-sheaths > young panicles at the filling stage, with the Bt protein levels in all the above tissues consistently higher than those in brown rice at the full ripening stage. In conclusion, the transcription levels of the cry2A* gene in early japonica rice were significantly positively correlated with the Bt protein expression levels, with distinct temporal and spatial variations. Collectively, the expression increased with the progression of growth and development in vegetative organs, while it decreased with the advance of growth stages in reproductive organs.

From a global viewpoint, a number of challenges need to be met for sustainable rice production: (i) increasingly severe occurrence of insects and diseases and indiscriminate pesticide applications; (ii) high pressure for yield increase and overuse of fertilizers; (iii) water shortage and increasingly frequent occurrence of drought; and (iv) extensive cultivation in marginal lands. A combination of approaches based on the recent advances in genomic research has been formulated to address these challenges, with the long-term goal to develop rice cultivars referred to as Green Super Rice. On the premise of continued yield increase and quality improvement, Green Super Rice should possess resistances to multiple insects and diseases, high nutrient efficiency, and drought resistance, promising to greatly reduce the consumption of pesticides, chemical fertilizers, and water. Large efforts have been focused on identifying germplasms and discovering genes for resistance to diseases and insects, N- and P-use efficiency, drought resistance, grain quality, and yield. The approaches adopted include screening of germplasm collections and mutant libraries, gene discovery and identification, microarray analysis of differentially regulated genes under stressed conditions, and functional test of candidate genes by transgenic analysis. Genes for almost all of the traits have now been isolated in a global perspective and are gradually incorporated into genetic backgrounds of elite cultivars by molecular marker-assisted selection or transformation. It is anticipated that such strategies and efforts would eventually lead to the development of Green Super Rice.

早粳稻空育131为受体, 以根瘤农杆菌介导遗传转化法创制了转ubi启动子调控下的cry1C*及cry2A*基因早粳稻空育131 (cry1C*)和空育131(cry2A*)。为了研究转基因水稻Bt蛋白的时空表达特性及抗螟虫性, 将不同转化事件形成的转基因早粳稻品系种植于田间, 利用酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA)法检测转基因水稻不同生长发育阶段不同器官的、以及成熟期糙米的Bt蛋白量, 采用室内离体茎秆法接虫鉴定转基因水稻的抗螟虫性。结果显示, 转基因早粳稻不同抗虫基因Bt蛋白量不同, cry1C*基因总是低于cry2A*基因的蛋白质表达量; 不同生长发育时期Bt蛋白量不同, 叶片和茎鞘等器官的Bt蛋白量为分蘖期<抽穗期<灌浆期, 幼穗或糙米等器官的Bt蛋白量为抽穗期幼穗>灌浆期幼穗>成熟期糙米; 不同器官Bt蛋白量不同, 高低次序在分蘖期为叶片、茎鞘, 抽穗期为叶片、幼穗和茎鞘, 灌浆及成熟期为叶片、茎鞘、幼穗和糙米; 同一抗虫基因不同转基因品系间抽穗期叶片、茎鞘和幼穗等器官Bt蛋白量及抗螟虫性、糙米Bt蛋白量等性状存在差异, 抽穗期各器官Bt蛋白量与抗螟虫性及成熟期糙米Bt蛋白量之间相关不显著, 不论Bt蛋白量高或低的品系均表现为高抗螟虫。转基因早粳稻营养器官生长发育前期Bt蛋白量较低、后期较高, 繁殖器官生长发育早期Bt蛋白量较高、晚期较低, 营养器官通常比繁殖器官的Bt蛋白量高。在本研究范围内, 不同基因及不同转化事件培育的转基因水稻Bt蛋白表达量高低不同, 但所有的转基因早粳稻品系均表现高抗螟虫。

The crystal proteins of Bacillus thuringiensis have been extensively studied because of their pesticidal properties and their high natural levels of production. The increasingly rapid characterization of new crystal protein genes, triggered by an effort to discover proteins with new pesticidal properties, has resulted in a variety of sequences and activities that no longer fit the original nomenclature system proposed in 1989. Bacillus thuringiensis pesticidal crystal protein (Cry and Cyt) nomenclature was initially based on insecticidal activity for the primary ranking criterion. Many exceptions to this systematic arrangement have become apparent, however, making the nomenclature system inconsistent. Additionally, the original nomenclature, with four activity-based primary ranks for 13 genes, did not anticipate the current 73 holotype sequences that form many more than the original four subgroups. A new nomenclature, based on hierarchical clustering using amino acid sequence identity, is proposed. Roman numerals have been exchanged for Arabic numerals in the primary rank (e.g., Cry1Aa) to better accommodate the large number of expected new sequences. In this proposal, 133 crystal proteins comprising 24 primary ranks are systematically arranged.

In seed plants, a major pathway for sorting of storage proteins to the protein storage vacuole (PSV) depends on the Golgi-derived dense vesicles (DVs). However, the molecular mechanisms regulating the directional trafficking of DVs to PSVs remain largely elusive. Here, we report the functional characterization of the rice (Oryza sativa) glutelin precursor accumulation3 (gpa3) mutant, which exhibits a floury endosperm phenotype and accumulates excess proglutelins in dry seeds. Cytological and immunocytochemistry studies revealed that in the gpa3 mutant, numerous proglutelin-containing DVs are misrouted to the plasma membrane and, via membrane fusion, release their contents into the apoplast to form a new structure named the paramural body. Positional cloning of GPA3 revealed that it encodes a plant-specific kelch-repeat protein that is localized to the trans-Golgi networks, DVs, and PSVs in the developing endosperm. In vitro and in vivo experiments verified that GPA3 directly interacts with the rice Rab5a-guanine exchange factor VPS9a and forms a regulatory complex with Rab5a via VPS9a. Furthermore, our genetic data support the notion that GPA3 acts synergistically with Rab5a and VPS9a to regulate DV-mediated post-Golgi traffic in rice. Our findings provide insights into the molecular mechanisms regulating the plant-specific PSV pathway and expand our knowledge of vesicular trafficking in eukaryotes.
