3. Analysis of cassava MeChlD Gene bioinformatics
1. Physicochemical Properties of the cassava MeChlD protein
The physicochemical properties of MeChlD proteins were obtained using protParam. The result shows that MeChlD protein is encoded by 754 amino acids, has a molecular weight of about 82.28kDa and has an isoelectric point of 5.81. Wherein 92 of the positive charge residues and 100 of the negative charge residues. From this we have deduced MeChlD that the protein belongs to the class of stable proteins.
The protein MeChlD amino acid sequence was analyzed for hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity using ProtScale software, and the results showed that the protein MeChlD amino acid showed the most significant hydrophobicity for lie, an analysis score of 4.500, and the Arg most significant hydrophilicity, and a score of-4.500. Since the total amino acid sequence is relatively large in the hydrophilic amino acid, it is presumed that MeChlD protein belongs to the hydrophilic protein.
Prabi is used to predict the secondary structure of the encoded protein of the cassava MeChlD gene. The results show that the secondary structure of the protein consists of alpha-helix (39.79%), random coil (38.06%), extended chain region (15.52%), beta-turn (6.63%), and the protein is presumed to be a stable spatial conformation based on the alpha-helix structure.
The result of the three-level structure prediction of MeChlD protein by ExPaSy is consistent with the predicted result of Prabi, namely the space structure of MeChlD protein is still composed of four components, namely beta-corner, random coil, alpha-helix and extension chain.
2. Analysis of cassava MeChlD protein domains and analysis of evolutionary relationship
The homologous sequence of the cassava MeChlD protein is found through a database NCBI, phytozome, uniprot, the highly homologous sequence is found in rice, tobacco, arabidopsis thaliana, citrus, soybean, upland cotton, brazil rubber tree and castor, and the homologous analysis is carried out by using software DNAMAN, so that the proteins all contain similar ATPase conserved domains (AAA+ATPase domain) and vWA domains.
In order to study the phylogenetic relationship between the cassava MeChlD protein and proteins of different species, protein sequences of different species such as cassava (Manihot esculenta), rice (Oryza sativa), tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum), arabidopsis thaliana (Arabidopsis thaliana), citrus (Citrus sinensis), soybean (Glycine soja), upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum), brazilian rubber tree (H.brasiliensis), castor (Ricinus communication) and the like are selected, and a phylogenetic tree is constructed by using MEGA7.0 software. As shown in FIG. 1, the proteins are mainly divided into two branches, namely tobacco, rice and Arabidopsis thaliana, and one branch is composed of cassava, brazil rubber tree, castor, upland cotton, citrus and soybean, wherein the cassava and Brazil rubber tree in the branches have close evolutionary relationship, and the cassava, the castor are gathered into a subclass.

The following formula is the calculation formula of chlorophyll components:
chlorophyll a (mg/g) = (12.7D663-2.69D645) ×v/W
Chlorophyll b (mg/g) = (22.9D645-4.68D663) ×v/W
Total chlorophyll (mg/g) = (20.21D645+8.02D663) ×v/W
Wherein D663 and D645 are absorbance values of chlorophyll solution at wavelengths of 663nm and 645nm, V is the volume (L) of the extracting solution, and W is the fresh weight (g) of the material.
As shown in FIG. 10, compared with the empty cassava plants (pCsCMV-NC) injected, the contents of chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b in the new leaves of the silencing plants pCsCMV-NC-MeChlD are extremely remarkably reduced (P > 0.001), the ratio of chlorophyll a/b is extremely remarkably increased (P > 0.001), and the total chlorophyll amount is extremely remarkably reduced (P > 0.001).
5. VIGS plant silencing efficiency detection and gene expression quantity identification
The silencing efficiency of gene MeChlD in the VIGS plants is analyzed by a real-time quantitative PCR technology, 0.1-0.2g of new leaves are collected after the VIGS inoculation, total RNA of the leaves is extracted by using a RNAprep Pure Plant Plus Kit kit of Tiangen company, and reverse transcription is carried out by using a TRANSSCRIPT ONE-Step gDNA Removal AND CDNA SYNTHESIS Super Mix kit purchased from Beijing full-scale gold biology company. The expression level of ChlD genes was detected by using a real-time quantitative PCR technique. MeChlD silencing efficiency detection primers are shown in Table 4. Beta. -action was used as an internal reference gene, and quantitative detection was performed using a Real-TIME THERMAL CYCLER fluorescence quantitative instrument from Thermo Fisher Co. The PCR reaction system was 2X ChamQ Universal SYBR QPCR MASTER. Mu.L, 0.4. Mu.L of the upstream primer, 0.4. Mu.L of the downstream primer, 1. Mu.L of the template cDNA and 3.2. Mu.L of DNase-FREE WATER. The PCR amplification procedure was 95℃for 7min, 95℃for 5s,60℃for 30s, 40 cycles total, and 60℃for 1min.
The results (FIG. 11) show that compared with the empty control pCsCMV-NC, the relative expression amount of ChlD gene in cassava plants injected with the silencing vector pCsCMV-NC-MeChlD is 30% -60% of that of the empty control, namely the silencing efficiency is 70% -40%, and the relative expression amount has extremely significant difference (P < 0.001), which indicates that the silencing vector pCsCMV-NC-MeChlD can effectively silence MeChlD gene on cassava.
And detecting the expression quantity of other photosynthetic related genes of cassava, including MeChlM, meChlI, meChlH, mePEPCase, meRbcS, meRbcL, mePrx-Q and the like in plants with the MeChlD genes silenced by a real-time quantitative PCR technology. The detection primers are shown in Table 4, and the detection method is consistent with the silencing efficiency detection method. The results are shown in FIG. 12. In the silent plants, besides MeRbcL, meChlH genes, the expression levels of other genes are in an ascending trend, and the descending amplitude is MEPEPCASE > MeRbcS > MePrx-Q > MeChlM > MeChlI in sequence.
6. VIGS silent plant MeChlD-2 field phenotype identification and determination of root number, fresh weight and total starch content of root tuber
The results (FIG. 13) demonstrate that the VIGS silenced plant MeChlD-2 leaves still retain flowers or turn yellow after 4 months of transplanting into the field. Meanwhile, after the cassava tubers are harvested, the number of tubers, the weight of fresh potatoes and the total starch content in the VIGS silent plant MeChlD-2 are obviously lower than those of a control plant. This illustrates MeChlD not only participating in photosynthesis (source), but also affecting accumulation (pool) of tapioca root starch.
