Role of Laccase Gene OsLAC6 in Response to Arsenite Stress in Rice

doi:10.15933/j.cnki.1004-3268.2022.01.004

Abstract

Abstract: The expression pattern of laccase gene OsLAC6，as well as laccase activity，lignin content in the roots，phenotypes of arsenite tolerance，and the changes of contents of chlorophyll and H₂O₂ of wild type（WT）and transgenic rice lines overexpressing OsLAC6 gene under arsenite stress were examined，so as to uncover the role of OsLAC6 gene in response to arsenic stress in rice.The results showed that the OsLAC6 gene exhibited apparently temporal and spatial expression pattern，which was mainly expressed in the roots，stems，leaves and nodes of rice plants at tillering stage and roots，stems leaves of rice plants at mature stage.Overexpression of OsLAC6 gene extensively significantly increased the laccase activity，but decreased lignin content in roots and the arsenite tolerance of transgenic rice lines.Under arsenite treatment，transgenic rice lines overexpressing OsLAC6 gene exhibited significantly shorter relative root elongation，lower chlorophyll content in leaves，and higher H₂O₂ content compared with WT.Therefore，OsLAC6 negatively regulates the arsenite tolerance in rice.

摘要： 对OsLAC6 基因的表达模式以及野生型日本晴和超表达OsLAC6 基因水稻株系的漆酶活性、根系木质素含量、亚砷酸盐胁迫耐受性及亚砷酸盐胁迫条件下叶绿素、过氧化氢含量等进行分析，以期明确OsLAC6 基因在水稻亚砷酸盐胁迫应答中的作用。结果表明，OsLAC6 基因具有明显的时空表达特性，其在分蘖期和成熟期的根系、茎和叶片及分蘖期节中表达量较高。超表达OsLAC6 基因极显著提高了转基因水稻株系叶片中漆酶活性，降低了水稻根系中木质素含量及对亚砷酸盐的耐受性。亚砷酸盐处理后，与野生型对照相比，超表达OsLAC6 基因水稻株系的根系相对伸长量、叶绿素含量显著降低，叶片过氧化氢含量增加。综上，OsLAC6 基因负调控水稻对亚砷酸盐的耐受性。
