- 植物生物技术 植物生物技术
- 营养生物化学 营养生物化学
背景情况:
- 茄子 (Solanum melongena L.) 的水果自然含有低水平的胡卜素,与西红等相关物种不同.
- 以前的研究成功地将β-胡卜素生物合成基因 (crtB) 引入茄子,导致温室种植的水果中适度的积累.
研究的目的:
- 在人工照明条件下 (HID和LED) 评估转基因茄子水果中的β-胡卜素积累.
- 评估增强的β-胡卜素水平对茄子果实发育和设置的影响.
- 研究不同光源对转基因茄子生长和产量的影响.
主要方法:
- 含有crtB基因的转基因茄子系 (T1和T2代) 在人工气候室中生长.
- 在高强度放电 (HID) 和发光二极管 (LED) 照明下,分析了水果中的β-胡卜素含量.
- 转基因 (T-DNA+) 和非转基因 (T-DNA-) 植物之间的水果重量和大小进行了比较.
主要成果:
- 转基因茄子水果中的β-胡卜素积累平均为8.83μg g-1 FW,大约是之前温室效应结果的五倍.
- 在HID和LED照明之间,或T1和T2代之间,没有发现β-胡卜素水平的显著差异.
- 与非转基因对照组相比,转基因水果的重量和尺寸显著减少,这表明潜在的生长抑制.
- 与HID条件相比,在LED照明下的部分植物显示果减少或果实较小.
结论:
- 人工照明,特别是HID,可以支持转基因茄子中的高β-胡卜素积累.

Transgenic Plants

Recombinant DNA technology called transgenesis is often used to add a foreign gene or remove a detrimental gene from an organism. Such genetically modified organisms are called transgenic organisms.
The first-ever transgenic plant was a tobacco plant developed in 1983 that showed resistance against the tobacco mosaic virus. Since then, many transgenic plants have been developed and commercialized for improving the agricultural, ornamental, and horticultural value of a crop plant. Transgenic...

Photoreceptors and Plant Responses to Light
20.2K
Light plays a significant role in regulating the growth and development of plants. In addition to providing energy for photosynthesis, light provides other important cues to regulate a range of developmental and physiological responses in plants.

Light Acquisition
8.4K
In order to produce glucose, plants need to capture sufficient light energy. Many modern plants have evolved leaves specialized for light acquisition. Leaves can be only millimeters in width or tens of meters wide, depending on the environment. Due to competition for sunlight, evolution has driven the evolution of increasingly larger leaves and taller plants, to avoid shading by their neighbors with contaminant elaboration of root architecture and mechanisms to transport water and nutrients.
