摘要:

土壤盐渍化严重制约农业生产发展, 通过提高植物耐盐性进行盐碱地综合利用, 对于保障粮食安全, 提升农业生产效率具有重要意义。脂质转移蛋白是一类在高等植物中广泛存在的小分子蛋白质, 能够参与植株生长、信号转导以及多种生物和非生物胁迫过程。前期本课题组克隆到一个谷子中编码脂质转移蛋白的基因SiLTP1, 本研究通过构建其原核表达载体和植物双元过表达载体, 获得了该基因的原核表达蛋白及同源转化过表达阳性植株, 经进一步筛选获得4个纯合株系。体外耐盐性试验显示, SiLTP1的原核表达蛋白具有一定耐盐性; 转基因植株苗期耐盐生理指标测定显示, SiLTP1过表达植株在遭受盐胁迫时, 植株体内MDA积累减少, 抗氧化酶含量升高, 可积累更少的过氧化氢, 从而降低胁迫对植株的氧化损伤, 显示基因过表达植株具有更好的耐盐性。本研究结果初步揭示, SiLTP1可正向调控谷子的耐盐性, 其在谷子耐盐抗逆方面具有潜在功能, 为耐盐谷子品种改良及新品种培育提供了理论基础和候选基因资源。

Abstract:

Soil salinization poses a significant barrier to agricultural productivity. Enhancing the salt tolerance of crops is crucial for the effective utilization of saline-alkali land, thereby ensuring food security and improving agricultural efficiency. Lipid transfer proteins (LTPs) are a class of small, widely distributed proteins in higher plants, playing crucial roles in plant growth, signal transduction, and responses to various biotic and abiotic stresses. In a previous study, a lipid transfer protein gene, designated SiLTP1, was cloned from foxtail millet. In this study, we constructed both a prokaryotic expression vector and a plant binary overexpression vector for SiLTP1. The prokaryotically expressed protein and four homozygous transgenic lines were successfully obtained and characterized. In vitro salt tolerance assays revealed that the SiLTP1 protein exhibited a notable degree of salt tolerance. Physiological measurements of the transgenic seedlings indicated reduced oxidative damage, as evidenced by lower malondialdehyde (MDA) accumulation, increased superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, and reduced hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) levels under salt stress, demonstrating enhanced salt tolerance. These findings suggest that SiLTP1 plays a positive role in regulating salt tolerance in foxtail millet, potentially by mitigating oxidative stress. This study provides a theoretical foundation and valuable genetic resources for the future development and breeding of salt-tolerant foxtail millet varieties.
