CRISPR/Cas9 based genome editing of Phytoene desaturase (PDS) gene in chilli pepper (Capsicum annuum L.)
An effective CRISPR/Cas9 reagent delivery system has been developed in a commercially significant crop, the chilli pepper using a construct harboring two distinct gRNAs targeting exons 14 and 15 of the Phytoene desaturase (CaPDS) gene, whose loss-of-function mutation causes a photo-bleaching phenotype and impairs the biosynthesis of carotenoids. The construct carrying two sgRNAs was observed to create visible albino phenotypes in cotyledons regenerating on a medium containing 80 mg/L kanamycin, and plants regenerated therefrom after biolistic-mediated transfer of CRISPR/Cas9 reagents into chilli pepper cells. Analysis of CRISPR/Cas9 genome-editing events, including kanamycin screening of mutants and assessing homozygosity using the T7 endonuclease assay (T7E1), revealed 62.5 % of transformed plants exhibited successful editing at the target region and displayed both albino and mosaic phenotypes. Interestingly, the sequence analysis showed that insertions and substitutions were present in all the plant lines in the targeted CaPDS region. The detected mutations were mostly 12- to 24-bp deletions that disrupted the exon–intron junction, along with base substitutions and the insertion of 1-bp at the protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) region of the target site. The reduction in essential photosynthetic pigments (chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and carotenoid) in knockout chilli pepper lines provided further evidence that the CaPDS gene had been functionally disrupted. In this present study, we report that the biolistic delivery of CRISPR/Cas9 reagents into chilli peppers is very effective and produces multiple mutation events in a short span of time.
