【目的】叶片是水稻进行光合作用最重要的器官。叶色突变体是研究光合作用、叶绿素合成代谢和叶绿体发育的重要材料。【方法】利用⁶⁰Co辐射诱变中籼恢复系自选1号,获得黄叶早衰突变体osyes1。幼苗期对突变体和野生型进行外源H₂O₂处理。抽穗期对突变体和野生型叶片进行超氧化物歧化酶活性、过氧化氢酶活性、活性氧含量、丙二醛含量、可溶性蛋白含量、叶绿素含量、净光合速率测定以及透射电镜观察。成熟期考查突变体和野生型的主要农艺性状。以osyes1/02428的F₂群体中的隐性单株为作图群体,利用图位克隆方法定位OsYES1基因。【结果】osyes1的突变性状始于3~4叶期,水稻抽穗后,所有叶片均表现为黄叶衰老症状,致使突变体株高、穗长、每穗粒数及结实率极显著低于野生型对照。与野生型对照相比,突变体幼苗对外源H₂O₂更敏感。生理分析表明,孕穗期野生型倒3叶的叶绿素含量、过氧化物酶和过氧化氢酶活性极显著低于倒2叶和剑叶,而突变体的含量则极显著低于野生型且依次极显著降低;与野生型相比,突变体剑叶、倒2叶和倒3叶的丙二醛、H₂O₂和O₂^-含量极显著增加,而可溶性蛋白含量则相反。遗传分析表明,osyes1受一对隐性核基因控制,利用图位克隆技术将OsYES1基因定位于第7染色体短臂的RM21353与RM21384之间,物理距离为708 kb。【结论】由于osyes1叶片过早黄化衰老导致与产量相关的重要农艺性状显著下降。OsYES1基因定位在第7染色体两个SSR标记(RM21353和RM21384)之间的708 kb的物理区间内。

【Objective】Leaf is a main photosynthetic organ and its color mutants of rice are ideal materials for the study of photosynthesis, chlorophyll biosynthesis and metabolism, and chloroplast development in plants. 【Method】The mutant osyes1 (Oryza sativa yellow-leaf and early senescence 1) was obtained through ⁶⁰Co γ-radiation treatment of indica cultivar Zixuan 1. The seedlings of osyes1 and its wild type were treated with exogenous H₂O₂. The SOD and CAT activities, ROS level, MDA content, soluble protein contents, chlorophyll contents, the net photosynthetic rate and chloroplast ultrastructure were analyzed for osyes1 and its wild type leaves at heading stage. The main agronomic traits of osyes1 and its wild type plants were analyzed under field conditions at maturation stage in Hangzhou. The recessive individuals in F₂ population derived from osyes1/02428 were used to locate the gene by the map cloning method.【Results】The yellow-leaf and early-senescence symptoms started at 3- or 4-leaf stage, and gradually spread to all of the leaves after heading. Due to the early-senescence of the leaves of the mutant osyes1, its major agronomic traits including plant height, panicle length, grain number per panicle and the seed setting rate were markedly reduced. Moreover, the mutant osyes1 exhibited hyper-sensitivity to exogenous H₂O₂. The physiological analysis indicated that the contents of chlorophyll and the activities POD and CAT in the third-top leaf was significantly lower than those in the flag leaf and the second-top leaf in wild-type (WT) plants, but all of them in the mutant plants were significantly lower than those in its WT. Compared with the WT plants, the contents of MDA, H₂O₂ and O₂^- followed a steady increasing trend in the flag, second-top and third-top leaves of the mutant, while their soluble protein levels were progressively dropping. Genetic analysis confirmed that osyes1 was controlled by a single recessive nuclear gene, which was mapped to a region of 708 kb flanked by two SSR markers (RM21353 and RM21384) on the short arm of chromosome 7. 【Conclusion】In this work, the main agricultural traits were significantly reduced in osyes1 for the yellow leaf and early senescence. OsYES1 was located in a 708 kb range between RM21353 and RM21384 by map-based cloning strategy.
