Simultaneous site-directed mutagenesis of duplicated loci in soybean using a single guide RNA
Plant Cell Reports(2018)
摘要
Key message Using a gRNA and Agrobacterium -mediated transformation, we performed simultaneous site-directed mutagenesis of two GmPPD loci in soybean. Mutations in GmPPD loci were confirmed in at least 33% of T 2 seeds. Abstract The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated endonuclease 9 (Cas9) system is a powerful tool for site-directed mutagenesis in crops. Using a single guide RNA (gRNA) and Agrobacterium -mediated transformation, we performed simultaneous site-directed mutagenesis of two homoeologous loci in soybean ( Glycine max ), GmPPD1 and GmPPD2 , which encode the orthologs of Arabidopsis thaliana PEAPOD ( PPD ). Most of the T 1 plants had heterozygous and/or chimeric mutations for the targeted loci. The sequencing analysis of T 1 and T 2 generations indicates that putative mutation induced in the T 0 plant is transmitted to the T 1 generation. The inheritable mutation induced in the T 1 plant was also detected. This result indicates that continuous induction of mutations during T 1 plant development increases the occurrence of mutations in germ cells, which ensures the transmission of mutations to the next generation. Simultaneous site-directed mutagenesis in both GmPPD loci was confirmed in at least 33% of T 2 seeds examined. Approximately 19% of double mutants did not contain the Cas9/gRNA expression construct. Double mutants with frameshift mutations in both GmPPD1 and GmPPD2 had dome-shaped trifoliate leaves, extremely twisted pods, and produced few seeds. Taken together, our data indicate that continuous induction of mutations in the whole plant and advancing generations of transgenic plants enable efficient simultaneous site-directed mutagenesis in duplicated loci in soybean.
