Abstract:

In order to clarify the specific regulation mode of DAM gene in dormancy,'Dangshan Suli'pear floral buds were used as the material to explore the upstream transcriptional factors of a DAM gene PpyMADS71 identified in previous studies. The results are as follows:(1) PpyERF060Ethylene responsive factor 060)and PpyMADS71 were co-expressed during bud dormancy cycle. The yeast binding site mutation assays and the dual-luciferase assays were used to confirm that PpyERF060 could bind to the DRE1 element of the PpyMADS71 promoter and activates PpyMADS71's expression,which was further proved by the upregulation of PpyMADS71 expression in PpyERF060 transgenic pear calli. (2) To explore the upstream genes of PpyERF060,we found that the transcription factor PpyABF3(ABRE BINDING FACTOR 3)could activate the expression of PpyERF060 and the binding site of PpyABF3 on the promoter of PpyERF060 was primarily determined. (3) Furthermore,ethylene treatment on'Dangshan Suli'buds caused up-regulation of PpyERF060 and down-regulation of PpyABF3. In addition,overexpression of PpyERF060 in pear calli caused inhibition of the transcription of PpyABF3. Based on the above results,we found that there is a regulatory network among PpyERF060,PpyABF3,and PpyMADS71,which could combine ethylene and ABA signaling pathway,and ultimately regulates the dormancy process.
