中文摘要： 大莎草系水陆两栖植物。其在水生条件下，形成C3光合结构和采用C3光合作用模式；而在陆生条件下，形成C4光合结构和采用C4光合作用模式；并且在水中添加一定量的ABA，其光合结构和光合作用方式可以转换为C4类型。这些特性为系统研究C3与C4光合机制转换以及C4光合结构形成的分子基础提供了极好的条件。本研究在建立的水生与陆生SSH文库，水生、陆生与水生ABA处理的转录组比较测序的基础上，挑选可能与C4结构形成相关的候选基因，分别构建dsRNA和amiRNA载体转化大莎草，考查转基因植株陆生状态下的C4光合作用模式的变化；对有效应的基因构建酵母双杂交载体，筛选水生与陆生酵母双杂文库，筛选出互作蛋白并进行验证，探求C4结构形成的基因调控网络。

英文摘要： Eleocharis vivipara is a freshwater amphibious plant. Under submerged condition, it forms the C3 photosynthetic structure and takes the way of C3 photosynthesis mode. In terrestrial condition, it forms the C4 photosynthetic structure and uses C4 photosynthesis mode. Adding a certain amount of ABA in the water, its photosynthetic structure and photosynthesis mode can convert into the C4 type. These characteristics provide the ideal opportunity to study C3 and C4 photosynthetic conversion mechanism and the molecular basis of C4 photosynthetic architecture formation. Based on the establishment of aquatic and terrestrial SSH library, together with the comparative transcriptome data from aquatic, terrestrial and ABA-induced samples, in this study we will first select the candidate genes which might be the C4 structure formation-related genes. By building their dsRNA and amiRNA vectors and using Eleocharis vivipara transformation system, we want to investigate the change of C4 photosynthesis mode under terrestrial condition. Meanwhile, those candidate genes that are effective for the change of C4 photosynthesis mode will be analyzed in yeast two-hybrid system by screening the aquatic and terrestrial yeast two-hybrid library. The identified interacting proteins will then be verified by the other methods. Our study has
