摘要:

FLOWERING LOCUS T(FT)对植物开花有重要的调控作用。为探索高羊茅FaFT基因的生物学功能,从前期高羊茅转录组中克隆得到FaFT基因。qRT-PCR分析表明FaFT基因在长日照、短日照、连续光照、连续黑暗、昼夜颠倒和长日照下不同发育阶段都保持一定的昼夜节律并受光周期的调控。亚细胞定位显示FaFT基因编码的蛋白位于细胞核中;利用酵母双杂交筛选出可能与FaFT互作的FD蛋白,并进一步通过双分子荧光互补(BiFC)方法进行验证FaFT与FD蛋白互作的真实性。通过构建过表达载体和功能补偿发现在长日照条件下FaFT基因促进拟南芥提前开花,FT基因功能补偿后恢复拟南芥突变体开花表型,突变体植株本身没有开花现象。以上结果说明高羊茅FaFT基因的生物学功能得以成功验证。

Abstract:

FLOWERING LOCUS T(FT)plays a significant role in regulating plant flowering. In this study,the FaFT gene was cloned from the previous tall fescue’s transcriptome in order to explore the FaFT gene biological function. qRT-PCR analysis showed that the FaFT gene maintained a certain circadian rhythm and was regulated by the light cycle in different developmental stages under long-day,short-day,continuous light,continuous darkness,day-night inversion,and long-day light. Subcellular localization revealed that the FaFT protein was located in the nucleus. FD(FLOWERING LOCUS D)protein that may interact with FaFT was selected by yeast two-hybrid,and the authenticity of the interaction between FaFT and FD protein was further verified by the bimolecular fluorescence complementation(BiFC)method. Through the construction of overexpression vectors and functional compensation,it was found that FaFT gene promoted Arabidopsis early flowering under long-day condition. After functional compensation of FT gene,the flowering phenotype of Arabidopsis mutants was restored,and the mutant plants themselves showed no flowering phenomenon. The above results indicate that the biological function of the FaFT gene of F. arundinacea has been successfully verified.
