Abstract:
With cDNA from Phellodendron amurense seedlings treated with drought stress as tester and cDNA from this plant in normal growth as driver, we construct cDNA subtracted library using suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH). In the library, the rate of recombination was 95%, the size of inserts was 300-800 bp. Two hundred and sixty-five new genes were obtained by DNA sequencing 816 positive clones picked randomly, and partitioned to 16 classes after nucleotide Blast and BlastX homological analysis against NT, NR, SWISSPROT, KEGG database. Forty-four drought stress associated genes, such as heat shock protein cognate 70, dehydration responsive protein 22, universal stress protein, metallothionein II, late embryogenesis abundant protein, were obtained, which made 16.6% of the overall genes. These genes included osmotic regulator, signal component regulatory protein and antioxidant enzyme. The research had established a basis for cloning stress resistance genes and further studying genes expression in P. amurense seedlings under drought stress.
