CGMMV-CP 형질전환 수박대목의 CGMMV 내성시험 및 계통확보

Previously developed transgenic watermelon rootstocks (gongdae) inserted by CGMMV-CP were examined to test the virus tolerance levels. In the restricted plastic house, the $T_{3}$ watermelon rootstock showed tolerance to CGMMV until 70 days after inoculation on the leaves while the non-transformed watermelon rootstock became susceptible at 20 days after inoculation. In the field, tolerance efficiency of transgenic rootstocks maintained up to 40% at 71 days after contamination with CGMMV in the soil while all of the non-transformed rootstocks became susceptible at 37 days with the same condition. In the same field, transgenic rootstocks showed more tolerance to CGMMV than the non-transformed rootstocks as those were inoculated on the leaves, but it showed only 10 days delay before being susceptible. Therefore, transgenic rootstocks have a characteristic of delay effect against CGMMV susceptibility, rather than resistance character. From $T_{3}$ rootstocks homozygous for the CGMMV-CP horticulturally favorable individuals were selected for further breeding and a transgenic line was finally obtained at the $BC_{1}T_{5}$. A material transfer experiment was conducted to find out if the DNA, RNA or expressed protein in the transgenic rootstocks could move to the grafted scion (non-transformed watermelon, Super-Kumcheon). PCR, northern, and western blot analysis were performed and no evidence of transferring of those materials from rootstock to scion was ever found. 수박작물의 대목용으로 사용하는 수박공대에 CGiMMV-CP 유전자를 도입하여 개발된 LM 수박공대의 CGMMV 내성 정도를 격리하우스와 노지 포장내에서 조사하였다. 격리온실에서의 $T_{3}$ 형질전환 수박대목의 CGMMV 내성은 접종 후 70일까지 유지되는 반면 대조구는 접종 후 20일에 전부 이병되었다. 인위적 토양전염 포장에서 형질전환체는 접종후71일까지 약 40%의 내성률을 보였으며, 대조구는 접종 후 37일에 모두 이병되었다. 인위적 접촉전염 포장에서 형질전환체는 대조구에 비해 약 10일 정도 지연효과를 보였다. 따라서 CGMMV-CP 형질전환체는 CGMMV에 저항성을 가진 것이 아니라 감염시기를 지연시키는 부분 내성으로 나타났다. CGMMV-CP homozygous T 세대를 진전시켜서 형질전환 수박공대 계통을 $BC_{1}T_{5}$ 세대에서 선발하였다. 또한 LM 수박공대에 형질전환 되지 않은 접수 (슈퍼금천수박)를 접목하여 non-LM 수박을 생산하고 CGMMV-CP 유전자에 관련된 물질의 이동 여부를 조사하였다. PCR, northern, western 분석한 결과 수박공대 대목에서 형성되는 DNA, RNA, protein 물질이 접수로 이동되지 않음을 확인하였다.
