研究領域

植物因無法移動,因此需以不同於動物的方式適應各式各樣的環境逆境。由於溫室效應的影響地球的溫度變異越來越大,連帶使台灣整體氣候發生改變,四季溫差愈趨明顯,乾旱的問題亦伴隨而來,使得在田間栽種的農作物,皆有可能遭受到不同程度的熱、低溫或乾旱等環境逆境的傷害(Yeh et al., 2012)。當植物處於較高環境溫度時,除成熟的組織、種子或花粉能忍受此逆境外,高溫會使得大部分生長中的植物組織停止生長甚至死亡。根據現有高溫逆境產生效應時間區分,高溫誘導效應可分成早期反應(Early response)與晚期反應(Late response) (圖一)。早期反應:葉溫因環境高溫而迅速上昇,致使蒸散速率加快與水分散失增加、光合作用與呼吸作用效率降低、膜穩定度性下降和自由基大量累積;晚期反應:包括蛋白質變性量增加,誘導細胞保護分子合成量或累積量增加(如小分子量熱休克蛋白質與SOD等),降低細胞傷害。上述反應中,蒸散作用降溫與保護分子累積皆被視為減少細胞受熱逆境傷害的重要機制。

水稻可謂我國現今最主要的糧食作物,同時它亦提供全球超過1/2人口的食物來源,因此如何減低環境對水稻生長的傷害以提高稻米產量實為現今重要的研究課題。溫度為影響水稻栽培與生產之重要因子,特別是高溫對水稻的生長與結穗會產生相當程度的影響。因此我們實驗室即針對水稻熱逆境相關基因功能進行分析,主要研究方向分成下列二部分:

第一部分: 探討水稻氣孔蒸散作用基因-OsRZFP34對水稻耐熱性及水稻產量的影響
利用寡核苷酸DNA微陣列篩到一個分別可受高溫及ABA誘導表現的水稻RING zinc-finger基因,命名為OsRZFP34。實驗發現其大量表現可在水稻中增加葉片氣孔的開闔程度,反之在降低表現量的突變株中,正常情況下葉片氣孔開闔程度即有明顯減少情形。熱逆境下,OsRZFP34大量表現轉植株較野生型植株具有較高降溫效果與蒸散速率(圖二)。進一步研究顯示OsRZFP34可調控保衛細胞中鈣離子濃度,影響水稻氣孔蒸散作用。現正分析OsRZFP34表現對水稻產量的影響。

第二部分: 分析小分子量熱休克蛋白質基因-OsHSP16.9A生理功能
小分子量熱休克蛋白質普遍存在於原核與真核生物中,它們被視為與生物耐熱性有密切關聯性。為研究水稻小分子量熱休克蛋白質OsHSP16.9A的生理功能,我們建立OsHSP16.9A大量表現(OsHSP16.9A-OE)和降低表現(OsHSP16.9A-i)的水稻轉殖株。水稻性狀分析發現OsHSP16.9A過量表現可降低水稻種子的白堊質發生情形,提高水稻種子、幼苗和花粉耐熱性 (圖三)。此顯示OsHSP16.9A與水稻在高溫下的耐熱性及白堊質有密切關係。
