为了挖掘新的小麦抗叶锈菌相关基因,本试验利用cDNA末端快速扩增(rapid amplification of cDNA ends,RACE)技术从小麦抗叶锈近等基因系TcLr26中克隆得到抗病相关基因TaGSO1,对其进行生物信息学分析,并对其在小麦与叶锈菌互作过程中的转...为了挖掘新的小麦抗叶锈菌相关基因,本试验利用cDNA末端快速扩增(rapid amplification of cDNA ends,RACE)技术从小麦抗叶锈近等基因系TcLr26中克隆得到抗病相关基因TaGSO1,对其进行生物信息学分析,并对其在小麦与叶锈菌互作过程中的转录水平表达模式进行检测。分析结果显示,该基因全长2598bp,编码866个氨基酸,其蛋白结构包含7个LRRs结构域和1个跨膜区以及1个短的细胞质结构,属于典型的LRR-RLPs受体蛋白;系统发育分析表明,TaGSO1基因与来自乌拉尔图小麦的EMS54105.1基因亲缘关系最近。RT-qPCR分析结果表明,该基因在TcLr26与叶锈菌的不亲和互作过程其表达量随接种时间延长明显升高,而在亲和组合中该基因的表达量很低,并且随着侵染时间的延长表达量几乎没有变化。外施SA发现TaGSO1的表达受SA诱导,推测该基因可能介导了SA信号传导途径。展开更多
