Abstract

Previous studies on genetic transformation of chrysanthemum using cold regulated gene (BN115) have been conducted and the PCR and Real-Time PCR based method to determine the presence of the transferred cold regulated gene in the chrysanthemum was established. To check whether over-expression of BN115 gene in transgenic chrysanthemum will enhance their tolerance to cold stress, the transgenic chrysanthemum were grown under low temperature condition and several cold signalling including growth characteristics, stoma size and shape, SPAD value and ion leakage test were investigated. The transgenic chrysanthemum in the low temperature growth chamber grow much faster in term of the height, number and size of the leaves than those of wild-type plants and damage of transgenic plant caused by the low temperature was much less than that of wild-type plants. The stoma type and size of transgenic plant leaves grown at $5^{\circ}C$ were much similar to of wild-type plant cultured on $25^{\circ}C$ It has been found that SPAD value of transgenic plants was much higher than those of wild-type, but the EC density being lower under low temperature condition.

PCR 및 Real-Time PCR 검정으로 확인된 국화 형질전환체는 저온저항성 BN115 gene과 표지유전자로 kanamycin에 저항성 있는 nptII gene을 가지고 있는 식물발현용 binary vector pBin19/BN115가 삽입된 A. tumefacience MP90을 국화잎에 공동 배양함으로 유전자가 도입되었다. 최종 선발된 형질전환체의 온도별 생육은 형질전환체가 비형질전환체에 비해 초장, 생체중, 엽수 모두 우수하였다. 또한 저온에서의 상해정도 관찰에서도 수침상정도가 비형질전환체보다 경미하였다. 저온의 외부환경에 따른 국화잎의 기공모양은 닫고 있는 비형질전환체와 달리 형질전환체는 개구된 모양을 유지하고 있었으며, 크기는 형질전환체의 크기가 비형질전환체보다 더 큰 것으로 측정되었다. 저온조건에서의 형질전환체 엽록소 함량은 5, $25^{\circ}C$에서는 비형질전환체와 비교하여 SPAD value 값에 큰 차이가 없었지만, 10, $15^{\circ}C$에서는 최대 +5.7 (평균+3.0), +9.7 (평균 +5.7)로 상대적으로 높은 함량을 나타냈다 또한 Ion leakage test결과 저온저항성 유전자가 도입된 형질전환체의 세포가 외부환경에 안정적으로 적응하여 세포내 파괴나 상해를 받지 않음으로 형질전환체의 EC 농도 (ds/m)가 비형질전환체에 비해 $1.29{\sim}1.97$배 낮은 수치를 보였다.
