초록

수박은 형질전환이 매우 어렵고 직접적인 신초 유도방법으로는 안정된 형질전환을 기대할 수 없어서, 다른 여러 작물에서 높은 효율을 보였던 캘러스 유래 신초 유도 방법을 도입하고자 하였다. 수박의 최적 캘러스 유도조건은 자엽 절편체의 경우 2.0 mg/L zeatin과 0.1 mg/L IAA이었으며 뿌리 절편체의 경우 2.0 mg/L BA와 0.1 mg/L 2,4-D이었다. NptII 유전자의 선발 항생제는 kanamycin보다는 paromomycin 빠르고 효과적이었으며, 수박의 절편체에 Agrobacterium을 접종 한 후 paromomycin을 125 mg/L 첨가한 배지에서 선발하였다. pmGFP5-ER vector로 형질전환한 후 캘러스 상태에서 형광현미경을 통해 GFP 유전자의 도입을 확인하였으며, 딱딱한 초록색의 캘러스에서 강한 GFP 발현을 관찰하였고, 자엽유래 캘러스의 경우 WM8에서 9.0%, 뿌리유래 캘러스의 경우 WM6에서 8.3%의 가장 높은 GFP 발현 효율을 보였다. GFP 유전자 도입과 같은 방법으로 WMV-CP 유전자가 있는 pWMV2300 vector로 형질전환한 후 캘러스 상태에서 PCR 및 Southern blot 분석을 한 결과, 두 점의 캘러스에서 WMV-CP 유전자가 도입되었음을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 확립된 수박의 캘러스 유도 시스템은 안정된 수박 형질전환 방법에 기초 자료로서 이용될 것이다.

The genetic transformation of watermelon by Agrobacterium has been known very difficult and a few successful cases have been reported by obtaining the direct shoot formation. However, since this direct shoot formation is not guaranteed the stable transformation, the stable transformation with reproducibility is required by a different approach such as a callus induced manner. The best conditions for inducing the callus from cotyledon and root explants of watermelon were 2 mg/L zeatin + 0.1 mg/L IAA and 2 mg/L BA + 0.1 mg/L 2,4-D, respectively. The GFP expression in the callus was identified and monitored through fluorescent microscopy after transformation with pmGFP5-ER vector. Paromomycin rather than kanamycin was used for selecting the nptll gene expression because it was more effective to select the watermelon explants. Four different callus types were observed and the solid green callus showed stronger GFP expression. The highest frequency of GFP expression in the callus developed from cotyledon was 9.0% (WM8 inbred line), while the highest frequency from root was 8.3% (WM6 inbred line). The WMV-CP was transformed using the method of GFP transformation and the genetic transformation of WMV-CP was confirmed by PCR and Southern blot analysis. Here we present a system for callus induction of watermelon explant and the callus induced method would facilitate the establishment of stable watermelon transformation.
