Targeted Next Generation Sequencing to study insert stability in genetically modified plants
SCIENTIFIC REPORTS(2019)
摘要
The EU directive 2001/18/EC requires any genetically modified (GM) event to be stable. In the present work, a targeted Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) approach using barcodes to specifically tag each individual DNA molecules during library preparation was implemented to detect mutations taking into account the background noise due to amplification and sequencing errors. The method was first showed to be efficient in detecting the mutations in synthetic samples prepared with custom-synthesized mutated or non-mutated P35S sequences mixed in different proportions. The genetic stability of a portion of the P35S promoter targeted for GM detection was then analyzed in GM flour samples. Several low frequency mutations were detected in the P35S sequences. Some mutated nucleotides were located within the primers and probes used in the P35S diagnostic test. If present not as somatic mutations but as the consensus sequence of some individuals, these mutations could influence the efficiency of the P35S real time PCR diagnostic test. This methodology could be implemented in genetic stability studies of GM inserts but also to detect single nucleotide mutant GM plants produced using “new breeding techniques”.
