Abstract:

In order to study the role of phototrapping pigment binding protein gene in potato photosynthesis,the phototrapping pigment binding protein gene StCP24 (LOC102586836)was bioinformatics analyzed and cloned into potato variety Dongnong 310 to obtain transgenic potato.The morphological indexes,leaf physiological indexes,fluorescence parameters,and gene relative expression of transgenic and control lines were measured under different light intensities after clonal propagation.The function of StCP24 gene was analyzed.The effect of this gene on chloroplasts was determined by ultrastructural observation.The results of bioinformatics analysis showed that StCP24 protein was a hydrophilic protein,and the promoter of StCP24 gene contained elements such as photoresponse,defense and stress response.Phylogenetic analysis showed that the amino acids encoded by StCP24 gene in potato were closely related to those encoded by StCP24 gene in cultivated tomato.Under different light intensity treatments,StCP24 gene overexpressed potato significantly increased stem diameter,leaf area,leaf weight,root length,chlorophyll a,b content,Fv/Fm,ETR,ETRmax and qP compared with wild-type potato.The overexpression of StCP24 gene can make the lamellar stacking of thylakoid granules more tightly and to a higher degree.In conclusion,the overexpression of StCP24 gene can increase the content of chlorophyll a and b in leaves,improve the electron transfer rate in photo cooperative photoreaction,and promote the growth of transgenic potato plants.
