The tapetum provides many of the proteins, lipids, polysaccharides and other molecules necessary for pollen development. Several transcription factors, including DYT1, TDF1, AMS, MS188 and MS1, have been reported to be essential for tapetum development and function in Arabidopsis thaliana. Here, we present a detailed cytological analysis of knockout mutants for these genes, along with an in situ RNA hybridization experiment and double mutant analysis showing that these transcription factors form a genetic pathway in tapetum development. DYT1, TDF1 and AMS function in early tapetum development, while MS188 and MS1 are important for late tapetum development. The genetic pathway revealed in this work facilitates further investigation of the function and molecular mechanisms of tapetum development in Arabidopsis.展开更多

Although MS1 is a Poaceae-specific gene, the roles of MS1 genes in other Poaceae plants are unknown, especially in rice and maize. Here, we identified one ortholog in rice(OsLTPg29) and two orthologs in maize(ZmLTPg11 and ZmLTPx2). Similar to TaMs1, both OsLTPg29 and ZmLTPg11 genes are specifically expressed in the microsporocytes, and both OsLTPg29 and ZmLTPg11 proteins showed lipid-binding ability to phosphatidic acid and several phosphoinositides. To determine their roles in pollen development, we created osltpg29 mutants and zmltpg11 zmltpx2 double mutants by CRISPR/Cas9.osltpg29, not zmltpg11 zmltpx2, is defective in pollen development, and only OsLTPg29, not ZmLTPg11,can rescue the male sterility of tams1 mutant. Our results demonstrate that the biological function of MS1 in pollen development differs in the evolution of Poaceae plants.展开更多

Methods Two sets of the multiplex PCR system were used to amplify the target genes in genetically modified (GM) soybean. Seventeen capture probes (PCR products) and 17 pairs of corresponding primers were designed according to the genetic characteristics of Rroundup Ready soybean (GTS40-3-2), maize (MonS10, Nk603, GA21), canola (T45, MS1/RF1), and rice (SCK) in many identified GM crops. All of the probes were categorized and identified as species-specific probes. One negative probe and one positive control probe were used to assess the efficiency of all reactions, and therefore eliminate any false positive and negative results. After multiplex PCR reaction, amplicons were adulterated with Cy5-dUTP and hybridized with DNA microarray. The array was then scanned to display the specific hybridization signals of target genes. The assay was applied to the analysis of sample of certified transgenic soybean (Roundup Ready GTS40-3-2) and canola (MS1/RF1). Results A combination technique of multiplex PCR and DNA microarray was successfully developed to identify multi-target genes in Roundup Ready soybean and MS 1/RF1 canola with a great specificity and reliability. Reliable identification of genetic characteristics of Roundup Ready of GM soybean from genetically modified crops was achieved at 0.5% transgenic events, indicating a high sensitivity. Conclusion A combination technique of multiplex PCR and low-density DNA microarray can reliably detect and identify the genetically modified crops.展开更多
