abstract = {Full-length and 5′ deletion fragments of three constitutively expressed gene promoters identified from the Citrus sinensis L. genome (cyclophilin (CsCYP), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase C2 (CsGAPC2), and elongation factor 1-alpha (CsEF1)) were evaluated for their ability to express the uidA gene in leaf, stem, and root tissues of transgenic N. benthamiana plants. According to the fluorometric GUS assays, the CsGAPC2 promoter activity was significantly reduced in the leaves when the sequence between position − 1090 and − 497 was removed, while the activity remained unchanged in the roots. The CsCYP promoter activity was not affected by the different deletions, and even the smallest evaluated fragment was sufficient to maintain the expression of the uidA gene in N. benthamiana leaves and roots. Truncated promoter fragments of CsEF1 conferred higher GUS activity in leaves compared with the full-length promoter, while GUS activity was not affected in the roots. The removal of the intron in the 5′ UTR of the CsEF1 promoter reduced gene expression in the roots, although it did not cause any reduction in the gene expression level in the leaves. These results indicate that any of the three deletions of the CsCYP promoter can be utilized for efficient gene expression.

abstract = {Key message: Complementation of the “Micro-Tom” tomato tangerine mutant with a Citrus CRTISO allele restores the wild-type fruit carotenoid profile, indicating that the Citrus allele encodes an authentic functional carotenoid isomerase. Abstract: Citrus fruits are rich in carotenoids; the genus offers a large diversity in composition, yet to be fully explored to improve fruit nutritional quality. As perennial tree species, Citrus lack the resources for functional genetic studies, requiring the use of model plant systems. Here, we used the “Micro-Tom” (MT) tomato carrying the tangerine mutation (t), deficient for the carotenoid isomerase (CRTISO) gene, to functionally characterize the homologous C. sinensis genes. We identified four putative loci in the C. sinensis genome, named CsCRTISO, CsCRTISO-Like 1, CsCRTISO-Like 2, and CsCRTISO-Like 2B, with the latter as a presumed duplication of CRTISO-Like 2. In general, all the Citrus paralogs showed less expression specialization than the tomato ones, with CsCRTISO being the most expressed gene in all tissues analyzed. MT-t plants were successfully complemented with the CsCRTISO, and fruits showed a carotenoid profile similar to the control, indicating that the Citrus allele indeed encodes an authentic functional carotenoid isomerase and that the signal peptide is functional in tomato. MT was silenced using an inverted repeat of a fragment from the Citrus CRTISO resulting in a stronger phenotype than MT-t. MT-t and MT silenced for CRTISO presented an overall decrease in transcript accumulation of all genes from the biosynthesis pathway. The expression of the Citrus CRTISO gene is able to restore the biosynthesis of carotenoids with the appropriate regulation in MT-t. The decrease in transcript accumulation in MT-t and MT-CRTISO-suppressed lines reinforces previous suggestions that transcriptional regulation of the carotenoid biosynthesis involves regulatory loops by intermediate products.},

abstract = {Key message: Regulatory sequences from the citrus constitutive genes cyclophilin (CsCYP), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase C2 (CsGAPC2), and elongation factor 1-alpha (CsEF1) were isolated, fused to the uidA gene, and qualitatively and quantitatively evaluated in transgenic sweet orange plants. Abstract: The 5′ upstream region of a gene (the promoter) is the most important component for the initiation and regulation of gene transcription of both native genes and transgenes in plants. The isolation and characterization of gene regulatory sequences are essential to the development of intragenic or cisgenic genetic manipulation strategies, which imply the use of genetic material from the same species or from closely related species. We describe herein the isolation and evaluation of the promoter sequence from three constitutively expressed citrus genes: cyclophilin (CsCYP), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase C2 (CsGAPC2), and elongation factor 1-alpha (CsEF1). The functionality of the promoters was confirmed by a histochemical GUS assay in leaves, stems, and roots of stably transformed citrus plants expressing the promoter-uidA construct. Lower uidA mRNA levels were detected when the transgene was under the control of citrus promoters as compared to the expression under the control of the CaMV35S promoter. The association of the uidA gene with the citrus-derived promoters resulted in mRNA levels of up to 60–41.8% of the value obtained with the construct containing CaMV35S driving the uidA gene. Moreover, a lower inter-individual variability in transgene expression was observed amongst the different transgenic lines, where gene constructs containing citrus-derived promoters were used. In silico analysis of the citrus-derived promoter sequences revealed that their activity may be controlled by several putative cis-regulatory elements. These citrus promoters will expand the availability of regulatory sequences for driving gene expression in citrus gene-modification programs.},

This study aimed to construct an integrated genetic map using full-sib progeny derived from Murcott tangor and Pera sweet orange and DArTseq™ molecular markers and to perform QTL mapping of twelve fruit quality traits. A controlled Murcott x Pera crossing was conducted at the Citrus Germplasm Repository at the Sylvio Moreira Citrus Centre of the Agronomic Institute (IAC) located in Cordeirópolis, SP, in 1997. In 2012, 278F1 individuals out of a family of 312 confirmed hybrid individuals were analyzed for fruit traits and genotyped using the DArTseq markers. Using OneMap software to obtain the integrated genetic map, we considered only the DArT loci that showed no segregation deviation. The likelihood ratio and the genomic information from the available Citrus sinensis L. Osbeck genome were used to determine the linkage groups (LGs). Results: The resulting integrated map contained 661 markers in 13 LGs, with a genomic coverage of 2,774cM and a mean density of 0.23 markers/cM.
