Abstract:
      Ten Brassica rapa materials from different breeding environments were used to analyze the relationship between cold resistance and environment by measuring semi\|lethal temperature. Treated with different concentrations of DNA methylation inhibitor 5-azaC, the effects of DNA demethylation on DNA methylation level and seedling physiological characteristics of Brassica rapa L. under low temperature stress were examined. The results showed that the semi\|lethal temperatures of materials selected in different breeding environments were significantly different, and the semi\|lethal temperatures of 2018-FJT, DT-7, DT-9, and MXW-1 were -16.04℃, -15.98℃, -15.63℃, and -15.04℃, respectively. The semi\|lethal temperatures of CT-2360, CT-2380, CT-2400, CT-2420, CT-2440, and CT-2460 were -11.32℃, -11.6℃, -11.42℃, -11.44℃, -12.97℃ and -13.28℃, respectively. According to the semi\|lethal temperature, the cold resistance of 10 Brassica rapa L. was in the following order: 2018-FJT>DT-7>DT-9>MXW-1>CT-2460>CT-2400>CT-2380>CT-2420>CT-2440>CT-2360. The formation of cold resistance was positively correlated with the latitude and annual average temperature of the breeding environment. Four materials CT-2360, MXW-1, 2018-FJT, and DT-7 with cold resistance and different producing areas were selected for physiological determination. The results showed that 1 000 μmol·L-1 5-azaC treatment could significantly inhibited the root growth of seedlings and the root length of the four materials decreased by 93.14% and 95.06% compared with the control. Under low temperature, 5-azaC treatment had the most significant effects on the REC and MDA content of CT-2360 seedlings, as well as the Pro and soluble protein content of strong cold resistant material DT-7. During the low temperature treatment, the SOD, POD, and CAT activities of the four materials all increased, and the low temperature treatment for 5 days was the most significant (P<0.05). Of which the SOD activity of 2018-FJT increased the most, which was 45.85%. The POD of DT-7 increased the most with 460%. The CAT of CT-2360 increased most significantly with 321.02%. HPLC analysis found that the methylation level of CT-2360 in materials with weak cold resistance at room temperature was 77.48%, which was higher than that of the other three materials with strong cold resistance. Significant demethylation occurred after 5-azaC treatment. This study supports that the cold resistance is regulated by DNA demethylation.
