Ectopic expression of OsMADS1 caused dwarfism and spikelet alteration in rice
Tóm tắt
In rice, an E-class gene, OsMADS1, acts to specify the identities of the lemma and palea. In this study, the OsMADS1 gene with a CaMV35S promoter was transformed into a japonica cultivar, Zhonghua 11. All transgenic plants successfully showed similar phenotypes, including dwarfism, distorted panicles, decreased numbers of branches and spikelets, and elongated sterile lemma. Histological analysis showed that the elongated sterile lemma developed with silicified epidermal and sclerenchymal cells, which were lacking in the wild-type sterile lemma, suggesting that the elongated sterile lemma had assumed the identity of the lemma or palea. Some marker genes were subjected to a detailed analysis of the distribution of their expression among the lemma, palea and sterile lemma. DROOPING LEAF (DL) and OsMADS6 genes were only expressed in the normal lemma or palea, respectively. In the elongated sterile lemma, a high level of DL gene expression was detected, while no expression of OsMADS6 was found, implying that the sterile lemma transformed into the lemma but not the palea. These results provide clues to elucidate the mechanism of evolution from lemma to sterile lemma in rice. qPCR analysis also suggested that the ectopic expression of OsMADS1 induced abnormal brassinosteroid and gibberellin acid activation, and then resulted in developmental defects in the stem and panicle.
