Abstract: The present disclosure provides a rice planthopper-sensitivity gene BGIOSGA015651 and the use thereof. The applicant found a gene BGIOSGA015651 for regulating rice planthopper-resistance by studying on rice varieties BG1222 and TN1. The gene expression level of BGIOSGA015651 in the insect-resistant variety is hundreds of times or more different from that of the insect-susceptible variety. The expression of this gene can be reduced or knocked out by molecular breeding methods or genetic engineering methods, resulting in that the insect-susceptible plant can obtain high insect-resistance. The resistance level of the insect-susceptible rice variety TN1 is of level 9 before knock-out, and the resistance level thereof is significantly increased to level 0-1 after the rice planthopper-sensitivity gene BGIOSGA015651 is knocked out.

Abstract: A new and strong transcriptional activation domain was identified from the Arabidopsis protein Ethylene Response Factor 98 (AtERF98). This domain has been designated as the “EDLL domain” and has a number of highly conserved amino acid residues that are found throughout the members of the AtERF98 family from plants, including in monocot and eudicot orthologs. The EDLL domain was shown to be highly active when it was fused to transcription factors from plant and yeast, and was also shown to have activation potential comparable to the widely-used VP16 activation domain derived from Herpes simplex. The EDLL domain was also active when it was targeted to a gene promoter by a sequence-specific DNA binding protein or by protein-protein interactions. Unlike other known activation domains such as VP16 and GAL4, the EDLL domain is relatively small in size, and being of plant origin, it is favored as a strong transcriptional activation tool for application in transgenic food crops.
