Abstract
The BABY BOOM2 gene, designated LkBBM2, and its promoter were isolated from hybrid larch (Larix kaempferi × L. olgensis). The open reading frame of LkBBM2 was 2574 bp, encoding 857 amino acids. The LkBBM2 protein contains two AP2 DNA binding domains and a BBM specific motif, but lacks the euANT5 motif common to AP2 family members. The LkBBM2 promoter contains several hormone response and root-specific expression elements. LkBBM2 expression was significantly higher in larch adventitious roots (ARs) than in stems, leaves or stem tips, and increased after auxin treatment. The fused protein LkBBM2-GFP was localized in both the nucleus and cytoplasm whereas LkBBM1-GFP was only localized in the nucleus. Over-expression of LkBBM2 and LkBBM1 in Arabidopsis significantly elongated the roots. Furthermore, over-expression those two genes in the hybrid poplar (Populus alba × P. glandulosa) significantly increased ARs number. We speculated that these two genes regulate AR development.
