Abstract

Abstract:

The development of kernels and the photoperiod characters are key elements that impact yield in maize. A N-acetylornithine deacctylase (NAOD) gene named ZmNAOD was cloned from maize inbred line Chang 7-2 by the method of RT-PCR in our work. The length of CDS (coding DNA sequence) in ZmNAOD gene is 1344 bp, coding a polypeptide of 447 amino acids. The expression of ZmNAOD was abundant in tassel, kernel, leaf, stem and root successively, and was up-regulated in seed from 0 to 15 d, and down-regulated after 15 d. The over-expression recombinant plasmid, pCAMBIA1304-ZmNAOD, was transformed into Arabidopsis using Agrobacterium mediated method, and homogeneous transgenic lines were obtained. The ZmNAOD gene expression was abundant in roots of transgenic Arabidopsis, and the root length was significantly longer than that of the wild type (WT) after a 10-day dark treatment. Flowering days of transgenic lines were earlier, the seeds were longer and the thousand seed weight was heavier than those of the WT. These results demonstrated that the ZmNAOD might be involved in seed development and photoperiod.

Key words: maize, gene cloning, genetic modification, seed development, photoperiod
