| 1 | ZmMs30 Encoding a Novel GDSL Lipase Is Essential for Male Fertility and Valuable for Hybrid Breeding in Maize显示文摘Genic male sterility (GMS) is very useful for hybrid vigor utilization and hybrid seed production. Although a large number of GMS genes have been identified in plants, little is known about the roles of GDSL lipase members in anther and pollen development. Here, we report a maize GMS gene, ZmMs30, which encodes a novel type of GDSL lipase with diverged catalytic residues. Enzyme kinetics and activity assays show that ZmMs30 has lipase activity and prefers to substrates with a short carbon chain. ZmMs30 is specifically expressed in maize anthers during stages 7-9. Loss of ZmMs30 function resulted in defective anther cuticle, irregular foot layer of pollen exine, and complete male sterility. Cytological and lipidomics analyses demonstrate that ZmMs30 is crucial for the aliphatic metabolic pathway required for pollen exine formation and anther cuticle development. Furthermore, we found that male sterility caused by loss of ZmMs30 function was stable in various inbred lines with different genetic background, and that it didn't show any negative effect on maize heterosis and production, suggesting that ZmMs30 is valuable for crossbreeding and hybrid seed production. We then developed a new multi-control sterility system using ZmMs30 and its mutant line, and demonstrated it is feasible for generating desirable GMS lines and valu. able for hybrid maize seed production. Taken together, our study sheds new light on the mechanisms of anther and pollen development, and provides a valuable male-sterility system for hybrid breeding maize. | Xueli An Zhenying Dong Youhui Tian Ke Xie Suowei Wu Taotao Zhu Danfeng Zhang Van Zhou Canfang Niu Biao Ma Quancan Hou Jianxi Bao Simiao Zhang Ziwen Li Yanbo Wang Tingwei Yan Xiaojing Sun Yuwen Zhang Jinping Li Xiangyuan Wan | 2019 | Molecular Plant2019,12,3: | 15 |
| 2 | Normal Structure and Function of Endothecium Chloroplasts Maintained by ZmMs33-Mediated Lipid Biosynthesis in Tapetal Cells Are Critical for Anther Development in Maize显示文摘Genic male sterility(GMS)is critical for heterosis utilization and hybrid seed production.Although GMS mutants and genes have been studied extensively in plants,it has remained unclear whether chloroplast-associated photosynthetic and metabolic activities are involved in the regulation of anther development.In this study,we characterized the function of ZmMs33/ZmGPAT6,which encodes a member of the glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase(GPAT)family that catalyzes the first step of the glycerolipid synthetic pathway.We found that normal structure and function of endothecium(En)chloroplasts maintained by ZmMs33-mediated lipid biosynthesis in tapetal cells are crucial for maize anther development.ZmMs33 is expressed mainly in the tapetum at early anther developmental stages and critical for cell proliferation and expansion at late stages.Chloroplasts in En cells of wild-type anthers function as starch storage sites before stage 10 but as photosynthetic factories since stage 10 to enable starch metabolism and carbohydrate supply.Loss of ZmMs33 function inhibits the biosynthesis of glycolipids and phospholipids,which are major components of En chloroplast membranes,and disrupts the development and function of En chloroplasts,resulting in the formation of abnormal En chloroplasts containing numerous starch granules.Further analyses reveal that starch synthesis during the day and starch degradation at night are greatly suppressed in the mutant anthers,leading to carbon starvation and low energy status,as evidenced by low trehalose-6-phosphate content and a reduced ATP/AMP ratio.The energy sensor and inducer of autophagy,SnRK1,was activated to induce early and excessive autophagy,premature PCD,and metabolic reprogramming in tapetal cells,finally arresting the elongation and development of mutant anthers.Taken together,our results not only show that ZmMs33 is required for normal structure and function of En chloroplasts but also reveal that starch metabolism and photosynthetic activities of En chloroplasts at different developmental stages are essential for normal anther development.These findings provide novel insights for understanding how lipid biosynthesis in the tapetum,the structure and function of En chloroplasts,and energy and substance metabolism are coordinated to maintain maize anther development. | Taotao Zhu Ziwen Li Xueli An Yan Long Xiaofeng Xue Ke Xie Biao Ma Danfeng Zhang Yijian Guan Canfang Niu Zhenying Dong Quancan Hou Lina Zhao Suowei Wu Jinping Li Weiwei Jin Xiangyuan Wan | 2020 | Molecular Plant2020,13,11: | 9 |

| 4 | ZmMS1/ZmLBD30-orchestrated transcriptional regulatory networks precisely control pollen exine development显示文摘Because of its significance for plant male fertility and,hence,direct impact on crop yield,pollen exine development has inspired decades of scientific inquiry.However,the molecularmechanismunderlying exine formation and thickness remains elusive.In this study,we identified that a previously unrecognized repressor,ZmMS1/ZmLBD30,controls proper pollen exine development in maize.Using an ms1 mutant with aberrantly thickened exine,we cloned a male-sterility gene,ZmMs1,which encodes a tapetum-specific lateral organ boundary domain transcription factor,ZmLBD30.Weshowed thatZmMs1/ZmLBD30 is initially turned on by a transcriptional activation cascade of ZmbHLH51-ZmMYB84-ZmMS7,and then it serves as a repressor to shut down this cascade via feedback repression to ensure timely tapetal degeneration and proper level of exine.This activation-feedback repression loop regulating male fertility is conserved in maize and sorghum,and similar regulatory mechanism may also exist in other flowering plants such as rice and Arabidopsis.Collectively,these findings reveal a novel regulatory mechanism of pollen exine development by which a long-sought master repressor of upstream activators prevents excessive exine formation. | Quancan Hou Xueli An Biao Ma Suowei Wu Xun Wei Tingwei Yan Yan Zhou Taotao Zhu Ke Xie Danfeng Zhang Ziwen Li Lina Zhao Canfang Niu Yan Long Chang Liu WeiZhao FeiNi Jinping Li Daolin Fu Zhong-NanYang Xiangyuan Wan | 2023 | Molecular Plant2023,16,8: | 0 |
| 5 | Evaluation of five DNA extraction methods for commercial vegetable oils显示文摘To ensure food safety, it's vital to accurately detect genetically modified(GM)ingredient adulteration in food products and effectively detect the adulteration of vegetable oils from GM organisms(GMO). Therefore, it's essential to establish efficient DNA isolation method from vegetable oil. Here, we evaluate 5 DNA isolation methods using 25 commercial vegetable oils produced from soybean, peanut, corn, sunflower, rapeseed as well as blended oils. Quality of isolated DNA was determined by Nanodrop 2000 spectrophotometry. Real-time PCR and universal gene tRNA-Leu was used to assess resolution of methods. Our results showed that only DNA samples isolated by modified emulsification method based on cetyl trimethylammonium bromide(CTAB) were able to amplify t RNA-Leu gene.Moreover, Ct values of species specific endogenous reference genes were greater than 36 in these samples. In summary, CTAB method showed the best resolution on GMO adulteration detection for commercial vegetable oils, especially in fully refined oils. | Yunjing Li Lin Shao Xiao Fang Danfeng Wan Yuhua Wu Jun Li Li Zhu Gang Wu | 2018 | Oil Crop Science2018,3,2: | 0 |
