Technology Invention and Mechanism Analysis of Rapid Rooting of Taxus × media Rehder Branches Induced by Agrobacterium rhizogenes.

ABSTRACT: Taxus, a vital source of the anticancer drug paclitaxel, grapples with a pronounced supply-demand gap. Current efforts to alleviate the paclitaxel shortage involve expanding Taxus cultivation through cutting propagation. However, traditional cutting propagation of Taxus is difficult to root and time-consuming. Obtaining the roots with high paclitaxel content will cause tree death and resource destruction, which is not conducive to the development of the Taxus industry. To address this, establishing rapid and efficient stem rooting systems emerges as a key solution for Taxus propagation, facilitating direct and continuous root utilization. In this study, Agrobacterium rhizogenes were induced in the 1-3-year-old branches of Taxus × media Rehder, which has the highest paclitaxel content. The research delves into the rooting efficiency induced by different A. rhizogenes strains, with MSU440 and C58 exhibiting superior effects. Transcriptome and metabolome analyses revealed A. rhizogenes' impact on hormone signal transduction, amino acid metabolism, zeatin synthesis, and secondary metabolite synthesis pathways in roots. LC-MS-targeted quantitative detection showed no significant difference in paclitaxel and baccatin III content between naturally formed and induced roots. These findings underpin the theoretical framework for T. media rapid propagation, contributing to the sustainable advancement of the Taxus industry.

Project description:Iron-binding compounds were produced in various amounts in response to iron starvation by a collection of Agrobacterium strains belonging to the species A. tumefaciens, A. rhizogenes, and A. vitis. The crown gall biocontrol agent A. rhizogenes strain K84 produced a hydroxamate iron chelator in large amounts. Production of this compound, and also of a previously described antibiotic-like substance called ALS84, occurred only in cultures of strain K84 grown in iron-deficient medium. Similarly, sensitivity to ALS84 was expressed only when susceptible cells were tested in low-iron media. Five independent Tn5-induced mutants of strain K84 affected in the production of the hydroxamate iron chelator showed a similar reduction in the production of ALS84. One of these mutants, M8-10, was completely deficient in the production of both agents and grew poorly compared to the wild type under iron-limiting conditions. Thus, the hydroxamate compound has siderophore activity. A 9.1-kb fragment of chromosomal DNA containing the Tn5 insertion from this mutant was cloned and marker exchanged into wild-type strain K84. The homogenote lost the ability to produce the hydroxamate siderophore and also ALS84. A cosmid clone was isolated from a genomic library of strain K84 that restored to strain M8-10 the ability to produce of the siderophore and ALS84, as well as growth in iron-deficient medium. This cosmid clone contained the region in which Tn5 was located in the mutant. Sequence analysis showed that the Tn5 insert in this mutant was located in an open reading frame coding for a protein that has similarity to those of the gramicidin S synthetase repeat superfamily. Some such proteins are required for synthesis of hydroxamate siderophores by other bacteria. Southern analysis revealed that the biosynthetic gene from strain K84 is present only in isolates of A. rhizogenes that produce hydroxamate-type compounds under low-iron conditions. Based on physiological and genetic analyses showing a correlation between production of a hydroxamate siderophore and ALS84 by strain K84, we conclude that the two activities share a biosynthetic route and may be the same compound.
