Identification and expression characterization of the Phloem Protein 2 (PP2) genes in ramie (Boehmeria nivea L. Gaudich)
Abstract Phloem protein 2 (PP2) is one of the most abundant and enigmatic proteins in sieve elements and companion cells, which play important roles in the maintenance of morphology, photoassimilate transportation and wound protection in higher plants, but to date, no PP2 (BnPP2) genes had been iden...

Abstract Phloem protein 2 (PP2) is one of the most abundant and enigmatic proteins in sieve elements and companion cells, which play important roles in the maintenance of morphology, photoassimilate transportation and wound protection in higher plants, but to date, no PP2 (BnPP2) genes had been identified in ramie. Here, a total of 15 full-length BnPP2 genes were identified. These BnPP2 genes exhibited different responses to abiotic stresses. Interestingly, the BnPP2 genes are more sensitive to insect pests than to other stresses. A study of the BnPP2-15 promoter revealed that pBnPP2-15 could drive specific GUS expression in the petiole, root and stamen and could also be induced by mechanical wounding and aphid infection in transgenic Arabidopsis lines.
