摘要:

【目的】探究水稻异三聚体G蛋白γ亚基RGG2在提高水稻抗旱性中的作用。【方法】利用酵母双杂交和荧光素酶互补实验,鉴定RGG2与RGB1的相互作用。施加外源ABA,检测RGG2的表达水平和RGG2过量表达系的种子萌发率,用于阐明RGG2是否参与ABA响应。通过比较野生型和RGG2过量表达系的离体叶片失水率和干旱处理后的植株存活率,解析RGG2在干旱胁迫响应中的作用。【结果】RGG2与RGB1之间存在相互作用。RGG2的表达水平可以被ABA、PEG-6000和干旱处理显著诱导。ABA处理条件下,日本晴和武运粳7号背景下RGG2过量表达系种子萌发率和根长均明显下降,且显著低于野生型,表明RGG2正调控ABA响应。过量表达系离体叶片的失水率低于野生型,但干旱条件下的植株存活率高于野生型。干旱处理条件下,多个ABA和干旱胁迫响应相关基因的表达被诱导,并且在过量表达系中的表达水平明显高于野生型。【结论】RGG2正调控ABA和干旱胁迫响应,过量表达RGG2可以提高水稻抗旱性。

Abstract:

【Objective】To investigate the role of RGG2, a heterotrimeric G protein γ subunit, in improving drought tolerance in rice.【Methods】The interaction between RGG2 and RGB1 was characterized using the yeast two-hybrid system and split luciferase complementation assays. The expression level of RGG2 and seed germination rates of transgenic lines were examined under exogenous ABA treatment conditions to determine whether RGG2 was involved in ABA response. The role of RGG2 in rice drought tolerance was analyzed by comparing the water loss rates of detached leaves and plant survival rates between wild-type and overexpression lines of RGG2 after drought treatment.【Results】RGG2 physically interacts with RGB1. The expression level of RGG2 was significantly induced by ABA, PEG-6000, and drought treatments. Overexpression lines of RGG2 in the backgrounds of Nipponbare and Wuyunjing 7 exhibited significantly lower seed germination and root length than the wild-type under ABA treatment condition, suggesting that RGG2 positively regulates ABA response. Compared with the wild-type, overexpression lines of RGG2 showed lower water loss of detached leaves and a higher survival ratio under drought treatment. After drought treatment, the expression levels of several ABA- and drought stress-related genes in the overexpression lines of RGG2 were higher than that in the wild-type.【Conclusion】RGG2 positively regulates ABA and drought stress responses, and overexpression of RGG2 improves drought tolerance in rice.
