Abstract

In order to develop transgenic potato plants with enhanced tolerance to multiple stress, we constructed the transformation vector expressing both superoxide dismutase and ascorbate peroxidase genes in chloroplasts under the control of a stress-inducible SWPA2 promoter. Transgenic potato plants (cv. Superior and Atlantic) were generated using an Agrobacterium-mediated transformation system. Transgenic potato plants were regenerated on MS medium containing 100mg/L kanamycin. Genomic Southern blot analysis confirmed the incorporation of foreign genes into the potato genome. When potato leaf discs were subjected to methyl viologen (MV) at 10 $\mu$M, transgenic plants showed higher tolerance than non-transgenic or vector-transformed plants. To further study we selected the transgenic plant lines with enhanced tolerance against MV. These plants will be used for further analysis of stress-tolerance to multiple environmental stresses.

산화스트레스에 내성을 지닌 형질전환 감자 식물체를 개발하기 위하여 산화스트레스에 의해 발현이 강하게 유도되는 SWPA2 프로모터에 CuZnSOD와 APX 유전자가 엽록체에서 동시에 발현되도록 연결한 형질전환 벡터 (pSSA-K)를 제작한 후 Agrobacterium 매개로 형질전환 하였다. 기관 발생 경로에 의해 kanamycin 저항성 식물체를 재분화 시킨후 Southern 분석으로 외래 유전자가 안정적으로 감자 게놈내로 삽입되었음을 확인하였다. 형질전환 감자 식물체의 잎 조직에 10$\mu$M methyl viologen을 처리하여 산화스트레스 내성 검정을 조사한 결과 형질전환체는 MV에 대해 강한 내성을 지님을 확인하였다. 내성을 보인 개체 중에서 환경스트레스에 대한 내성 조사를 위하여 품종별로 2 개체씩 선발하였다. 선발된 식물체는 건조, 고온 등의 여러 가지 환경스트레스 내성검정에 이용될 것이며 향후 복합재해 내성 감자 품종이 개발될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.
