CRISPR/Cas9-mediated LhNAP mutagenesis extends flower longevity in lily
Flower longevity is an important trait determining the ornamental plant quality. NAM/ATAF1,2/CUC2 (NAC) transcription factors regulate leaf and petal senescence in several plants. To extend the longevity of lily flowers, in this study we used the CRISPR/Cas9 technology for the targeted mutagenesis of LhNAP encoding the NAC transcription factor in the Oriental hybrid lily (Lilium spp.) ‘Acapulco’. Filament-derived calli were transformed with binary vectors containing guide RNA expression cassettes targeting one or two regions of LhNAP and the codon-optimized Cas9 for Oryza sativa driven by Zea mays ubiquitin promoter. Mutant lines harbouring biallelic mutations at the LhNAP locus exhibited clearly delayed tepal senescence and abscission compared to the wild-type plants. Overall, our results highlight the potential of LhNAP-targeted genome editing to produce lilies with extended flower longevity and reveal the crucial role of LhNAP in regulating tepal senescence and abscission in lilies.
期刊介绍:
Plant Physiology and Biochemistry publishes original theoretical, experimental and technical contributions in the various fields of plant physiology (biochemistry, physiology, structure, genetics, plant-microbe interactions, etc.) at diverse levels of integration (molecular, subcellular, cellular, organ, whole plant, environmental). Opinions expressed in the journal are the sole responsibility of the authors and publication does not imply the editors'' agreement.
Manuscripts describing molecular-genetic and/or gene expression data that are not integrated with biochemical analysis and/or actual measurements of plant physiological processes are not suitable for PPB. Also "Omics" studies (transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, etc.) reporting descriptive analysis without an element of functional validation assays, will not be considered. Similarly, applied agronomic or phytochemical studies that generate no new, fundamental insights in plant physiological and/or biochemical processes are not suitable for publication in PPB.
Plant Physiology and Biochemistry publishes several types of articles: Reviews, Papers and Short Papers. Articles for Reviews are either invited by the editor or proposed by the authors for the editor''s prior agreement. Reviews should not exceed 40 typewritten pages and Short Papers no more than approximately 8 typewritten pages. The fundamental character of Plant Physiology and Biochemistry remains that of a journal for original results.
