| Abstract | Boron (B) is essential for plant growth. However, the molecular mechanism of B transport in rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) is unknown well. Here, we report that B transporter BnaA4.BOR2 is involved in the transport of B from root to shoot and its distribution in shoot cell wall and flower in rapeseed. The results of GUS staining and in-situ PCR analysis showed that BnaA4.BOR2 is mainly expressed in cortex and endodermis of root tip meristem zone and endodermis of mature zone. BnaA4.BOR2 was mainly localized in plasma membrane and showed B transport activity in yeast. Overexpression of Bna4.BOR2 could rescue the phenotype of Arabidopsis mutant bor2-2 under low-B condition. Furthermore, knockout of BnaA4.BOR2 could significantly enhance the sensitivity of rapeseed mutants to B deficiency, including inhibition of root elongation and biomass decrease of roots and shoots. The B concentration in xylem sap of BnaA4.BOR2 mutants was significantly decreased under B deficiency, which resulted in significantly lower B concentrations in shoot cell wall at seedling stage and flower organ at reproductive stage compared to that of wild-type QY10. The growth of BnaA4.BOR2 mutants were severely inhibited, exhibiting a typical B-deficient phenotype of "flowering without seed setting", leading to a sharp decrease in seed yield in B deficient soil. Taken together, these results indicate that BnaA4.BOR2 is critical for rapeseed growth and seed yield production under low B level, which is mainly expressed in cortex and endodermis, and contributed to the transport of B from roots to shoots and its distribution in shoot. |
