摘要
AbstractA nativerepABCreplication origin, ori pRi, was previously reported as a single copy plasmid inAgrobacterium tumefaciensand can improve the production of transgenic plants with a single copy insertion of transgenes when it is used in binary vectors forAgrobacterium-mediatedtransformation. A high copy ori pRi variant plasmid, pTF::Ri, which does not improve the frequency of single copy transgenic plants, has been reported in the literature. Sequencing the high copy pTF::RirepABCoperon revealed the presence of two mutations: one silent mutation and one missense mutation that changes a tyrosine to a histidine (Y299H) in a highly conserved area of the C-terminus of the RepB protein (RepBY299H). Reproducing these mutations in the wild-type oriRi binary vector showed thatAgrobacteriumcells with the RepBY299Hmutation grow faster on both solidified and in liquid medium, and have higher plasmid copy number as determined by ddPCR. In order to investigate the impact of the RepBY299Hmutation on transformation and quality plant production, the RepBY299Hmutated ori pRi binary vector was compared with the original wild-type ori pRi binary vector and a multi-copy oriV binary vector in canola transformation. Molecular analyses of the canola transgenic plants demonstrated that the multi-copy ori pRi with the RepBY299Hmutation inAgrobacteriumcells lost the advantage of generating high frequency single copy, backbone-free transgenic plants compared to using the single copy wild-type ori pRi binary vector.
