中文摘要：

以CsRCA超表达黄瓜株系T1-7、T1-2和野生型‘08-1’为试材,在三叶一心时用光照培养箱模拟高温环境[40℃,光量子通量密度（PFD）600μmol·m^-2·s^-1],研究了CsRCA超表达对高温胁迫下黄瓜幼苗光合作用的调控机理.结果表明：CsRCA超表达可显著提高转基因黄瓜幼苗核酮糖-1,5-二磷酸羧化/加氧酶（Rubisco）大、小亚基的mRNA表达量,Rubisco和Rubisco活化酶（RCA）活性亦显著高于野生型植株.高温胁迫2 h后,超表达和野生型黄瓜幼苗的光合速率（P_n）、以吸收光能为基础的光化学性能指数（PIABS）、Rubisco活性和RCA活性及其mRNA表达量均显著降低.经JIP-test分析发现,高温胁迫导致叶绿素荧光快速诱导动力学曲线中K点明显上升,而捕获的激子将电子传递到电子传递链中Q_A下游的其他电子受体的概率（Ψ_o）和用于电子传递的产额（φ_（E0））均显著下降,说明PSⅡ放氧复合体（OEC）和Q_A之后的电子传递链在高温下受到抑制,但是超表达植株的变化幅度要小于野生型植株.可见CsRCA超表达可以通过提高Rubisco、RCA和PSⅡ活性,缓解高温对黄瓜幼苗光合作用的影响,增强其对高温的适应性.

英文摘要：

In the present work, transgenic cucumber seedlings over expressing CsRCA and wild-type cucumber seedlings ＇ 08-1 ＇ at three-leaf stage exposed to high temperature （ 40 ℃, PFD 600μmol · m-2 · s-1） were used to study the regulatory mechanism of photosynthesis by CsRCA. The results showed that the mRNA abundance of rbcL and rbcS as well as the activities of ribulose bi- sphosphate carboxylic enzyme （Rubisco） and Rubisco activase （RCA） were significantly higher in CsRCA over-expressing cucumber seedlings than in wild type （WT）. Following 2-h exposure to high temperature, a notable decrease was observed in photosynthetic rate （ Pn ） , photochemical perfor- mance index based on the absorption of light energy （P/Ass）, activities of Rubisco and RCA as well as the relative expression of rbcL, rbcS and CsRCA in both wild-type cucumber seedlings and trans- genic cucumber seedlings. It was found that high temperature stress led to higher Wk, a parameter of chlorophyll （Chl） a fluorescence OJIP curve. Furthermore, high temperature greatly reduced the efficiency of electron transfer along the electron transport chain beyond QA （ψ0） and the quantum yield for electron transport （ φOE0 ）, indicating that PSII oxygen complexes （ OEC ） and electron transport chain downstream QA were inhibited by high temperature. However, the inhibition couldbe alleviated by over expressing CsRCA in cucumber seedlings. Taken together, that over expressing CsRCA improves photosynthesis in cucumber seedlings unde our data suggested r high stress by enhancing activities of the Rubisco and RCA, and maintaining the number of tion centers. temperature active reaction centers.
