Abstract:
:Two groups of linear gene constructs (gus and bar, and 1Ax1 and bar) lacking vector backbone sequences were independently transferred into the elite wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) variety EM12, and genetically stable transgenic plants with low copy number transgene integration were recovered. Co-transformation experiments were carried out in parallel using either circular whole plasmid(s) or linear gene cassettes which were purified from the same plasmid by restrictive digestion, each cassette consisting of a promoter, an open reading frame, and a terminator. Six transgenic wheat lines transformed with 1Ax1 plus bar gene cassettes, five lines with gus plus bar gene cassettes, three lines with p1Ax1 plus pAHC20, and two lines with pAHC25 were regenerated with transformation frequencies of 0.6, 0.5, 0.3, and 0.2%, respectively. Southern blotting analysis showed that there were 1-4 hybridizing bands in transgenic lines carrying gene cassettes, of which most lines displayed single-copy transgene insertion. Expression analyses showed that 50.5% of the T1 lines carrying gus plus bar gene cassettes have the expression signals of two genes. SDS-PAGE analysis of the T1 generation revealed that 71% of herbicide-resistant plants carrying 1Ax1 plus bar gene cassettes expressed the high molecular weight subunit 1Ax1 in the endosperm. Gene cassettes were transmitted and segregated in the subsequent generations, in simple Mendelian ratios. In addition, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) results confirmed that 1Ax1 gene cassettes were expressed specifically in the endosperm of the transgenic wheat plant. It is proposed that gene transfer using multiple gene cassettes offers an efficient and rapid method to obtain the single-copy transgenic wheat.
