摘要

The progeny of chlorsulfuron-resistant forage rape (Brassica napus L. subsp. napus, cv. Giant) and potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Iwa) plants hemizygous for a single transgenic locus were screened for transgene segregation following an application of either water or chlorsulfuron. The transgenic locus contained three transgenes conferring kanamycin resistance (NOS-NPTII-NOS), β-glucuronidase (GUS) activity (35S-GUS-OCS), and chlorsulfuron resistance (a complete acetohydroxyacid synthase gene with a proline197 to serine substitution). In the absence of the herbicide application, plants segregated for GUS activity as expected for single locus inheritance. However, the progeny of plants sprayed with chlorsulfuron exhibited a highly distorted segregation for GUS activity, with a significant excess of transgenic progeny. Inducing such biased segregation provides a simple treatment to rapidly drive the fixation of transgenic alleles to homozygosity in open pollinated populations during seed increases of new cultivars.
