Abstract:

The HD-Zip I class transcription factor plays an important role in plant resistance to abiotic stresses. An HD-Zip I class gene GmHDL57 (Glycine max homeodomain-leucine zipper protein 57) was cloned from soybean in this study. Sequence analysis showed that GmHDL57 gene contained a 1038 bp ORF, encoding 345 amino acids, and featured with HD-Zip family proteins’ typical conserved domain. GmHDL57 was expressed in different organs of soybean plants and the highest expression occurred in flowers. The effects of abiotic stresses (abscisic acid, NaCl, PEG, and cold) on GmHDL57 gene expression in soybean seedling stage were analyzed by real-time quantitative PCR. The expression level of GmHDL57 gene was obviously increased under high salinity stress and less affected by ABA and drought stress but decreased by cold stress. The expression level of GmHDL57 gene in roots was significantly higher than that in stems and leaves before and after salt stress, and reached the peak at 48 h, then decreased slowly at 72 h and 96 h after salt stress. The overexpression vector of GmHDL57 was constructed and transformed into Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA105 to obtain the stable transgenic Lotus japonicus plants. After being treated with 200 mmol L -1 NaCl for 14 d, the shoot height, root length, chlorophyll content, root activity as well as K + and Ca 2+ content increased significantly in transgenic plants compared with the wild type. The malondialdehyde content, relative membrane permeability and Na +content were obviously reduced in transgenic plants compared with the wild type. It is hypothesized that the GmHDL57 gene participates in the abiotic stress response of soybean, and over-expression of GmHDL57 gene could enhance resistance to saline in Lotus japonicus.

Key words: Glycine max, GmHDL57 gene, abiotic stress, salt resistance
