摘要
Genic male sterility(GMS),as a promising pollination control system,has already been extensively utilized for hybrid rapeseed production. TE5A is a novel thermo-sensitive dominant GMS line in Brassica napus. Analysis of paraffin-cross sections of anthers and TEM showed that the male gamete development was arrested at meiosis prophase I,eventually,meiotic PMCs were degenerated,leaving an empty locule,and no pollen grains were generated. Chromosome spreads and FISH showed that homologous chromosomes could not pair,synapse,condense and form bivalents in TE5A. Ed U uptake of S-phase meiocytes revealed that TE5A mutant could accomplish DNA replication. We then analyzed the transcriptome differences between young floral buds of sterile plants and its near-isogenic fertile plants. RNA-Seq analysis identified 3,841 differentially expressed genes(DEGs),some of which were associated with homologous chromosome behavior and cell cycle control during meiosis. These DEGs represented a set of potential candidate genes associated with GMS in the TE5A. Dynamic expression changes of candidate DEGs were then detected at different developmental stages of anthers. The present study provided a global assessment of the differences between GMS sterile plants and its near-isogenic fertile plants,as well as identified new fertility-associated genes and elucidated the mechanisms of GMS.
