摘要: Expression of the late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) gene is usually associated with plant response to dehydration. In this study, a drought-tolerant genotype was screened from 48 accessions of Tibetan hulless barley (Hordeum vulgare ssp. vulgare). By using virus-induced gene silencing, the influence of two LEA genes (HVA1 and Dhn6) on drought tolerance of Tibetan hulless barley was investigated. Results of quantitative real-time PCR indicated that the relative expression levels of HVA1 and Dhn6 in silenced plants were significantly reduced compared with control plants. Both HVA1-silenced and Dhn6-silenced plants showed a consequently lower survival rate than control plants under drought stress. However, only HVA1-silenced plants exhibited a significantly higher water loss rate (WLR). These results suggested that HVA1 and Dhn6 might participate in adaptive responses to water deficit in different ways. Vegetative growth of HVA1-silenced plants was significantly retarded even under optimal growth conditions, and their biomass accumulation was also much lower than that of the controls. These results indicate that HVA1 might play a role in vegetative growth of Tibetan hulless barley.
