Abstract

This study was conducted to develop herbicide-resistance domestic maize plants by introducing the CP4 5-enol-pyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (CP4 EPSPS) gene using Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated immature embryo transformation. Immature embryos of five genotypes (HW1, KL103, HW3, HW4, HW7) were co-cultivated with strains Agrobacterium tumefaciens (strain C58C1) containing the binary vector (pCAMBIA2300) carrying Ubiquitin promoter-CP4 EPSPS gene and Cauliflower mosaic virus 35S (CaMV35S) promoter-nptll gene conferring resistance to paromomycin as a selective agent. The presence and expression of CP4 EPSPS transgene were confirmed by PCR, RT-PCR and Northern blot analysis, respectively. Also, the resistance to glyphosate in the transgenic maize ($T_1$) was analyzed by shikimate accumulation assay. The frequency (%) of paromomycin-resistance callus was 0.37, 0.03, 2.20, 2.37, and 0.81% in pure lines HW1, KL103, HW3, HW4 and HW7, respectively. EPSP transgene sequences were amplified in putative transgenic plants that regenerated from paromomycin-resistance calli of two inbred lines (HW3, HW4). Of them, RT-PCR and Northern blot analyses revealed that the transgene was only expressed in two transgenic events (M266, M104) of HW4 inbred line, and a mild glyphosate resistance of transgenic event (M266) was confirmed by the lower shikimate accumulation in leaf segments. These results demonstrate that transgenic maize with herbicide-resistance traits in Korean genotype can be genetically obtained.

국내 옥수수 순계주에서 Agrobacterium 공동배양으로 CP4 5-Enol-pyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (CP4 EPSPS) 유전자가 도입된 제초제저항성식물체를 개발하였다. 5개의 순계주 (HW1, KL103, HW3, HW4, HW7)의 미숙배를 Ubiquitin promoter-CP4 EPSPS 유전자와 CaMV35S promoter-nptII 유전자가 발현되도록 제조된 pCAMBIA2300 벡터를 C58C1 Agrobacterium에 형질전환하여 공동 배양하였다. 항생제로 paromomycin이 첨가된 배지에서 선발된 옥수수 형질전환체를 PCR, RT-PCR 및 Northern 분석을 통하여 유전자의 도입과 발현을 확인하였다. 또한 형질전환 식물체의 glyphosate 처리에 따른 shikimate 축적반응을 확인하였다. Paromomycin 저항성 캘러스 형성빈도는 옥수수 각 순계주 HW1, KL103, HW3, HW4, HW7에서 각각 0.37%, 0.03%, 2.20%, 2.37%, 0.81%로 나타났으며, PCR분석을 통하여 최종적으로 2개의 옥수수 순계주 (HW3, HW4)의 paromomycin 저항성 캘러스로부터 분화된 식물체에서 확인하였다. 이러한 형질전환체중에서 RT-PCR 및 Nothern blot 분석을 통하여 CP4 EPSPS 유전자가 발현되는 2개의 계통 (M266, M104) 을 선발하였고, shikimate 축적반응을 통하여 glyphosate에 대한 저항성을 갖는 계통 (M266)을 최종적으로 선발하였다. 이러한 결과는 국내 옥수수 순계주에서 제초제저항성을 갖는 옥수수 형질 전환체를 개발할 수 있음을 시사한다.
