Abstract

【Objective】 OsENO2-2 was isolated from japonica cultivar Zhonghua 11 as a short transcript produced by alternative splicing of OsENO2 which is homologous to AtENO2. To reveal the function of OsENO2-2,【Method】 we constructed an overexpression vector of OsENO2-2 and obtained the transgenetic plants. Based on the observation and statistics of phenotype in overexpressed plant and wild-type, we validated the function of OsENO2-2 using reverse genetics method. 【Result】 Overexpression of OsENO2-2 transgenetic plants delayed heading date only under long-day conditions but not short-day conditions. qRT-PCR expression analysis of the critical flowering time genes showed that in long-day conditions, the expression of RFT1 in overexpressed plants was downregulated, and the expression levels of the other tested genes did not change significantly in wild-type and overexpressed plants; but in short-day conditions, the expression of all the tested genes in wild-type and over-expression plants did not change significantly. 【Conclusion】 OsENO2-2 might be involved in the photoperiodic pathways to regulate the heading date in rice by regulating the expression of RFT1 gene.
