Abstract
Phytophthora sojae is a model species for the study of plant pathogenic oomycetes. The initial research on gene function using Phytophthora was mainly based on gene silencing technology. Recently, the CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing technology was successfully established in P. sojae and widely used in oomycetes. In this protocol, we describe the operating procedures for the use of CRISPR/Cas9-based genome editing technology and PEG-mediated stable transformation of P. sojae protoplasts. Two plasmids were co-transformed into P. sojae: pYF515 expressing Cas9 and the single guide RNA, and the homologous replacement vector of the candidate gene. Finally, the ORF of candidate gene were replaced with the ORF of the entire hygromycin B phosphotransferase gene (HPH), to achieve precise knockout.
Keywords: CRISPR/Cas9 (CRISPR/Cas9)Background
The probability of homologous recombination of Phytophthora itself is extremely low, and it is difficult to use methods based on homologous recombination to knock out genes. Therefore, a CRISPR/Cas9-based technology was developed to allow gene editing in P. sojae (Fang and Tyler, 2016). CRISPR/Cas9 is an adaptive immune response found in Bacteria and Archaea to prevent phage infection (Deveau et al., 2010; Garneau et al., 2010; Horvath and Barrangou, 2010). The CRISPR/Cas9 system consists of two components, namely Cas9 and single guide RNA (sgRNA) (Hsu et al., 2014). The single guide RNA (sgRNA) contains 20 nucleotides, which can mediate Cas9 to target the specific sequence region based on the principle of double-strand complementarity; Cas9 protein acts as a nuclease to cut specific DNA sites to produce double-strand break nicks (DSB).
In the presence of a homologous template (donor DNA), the cell uses the homologous template to repair, resulting in the homologous replacement of the target gene by the donor DNA to complete precise gene editing. Here, we provide detailed steps for the transformation of P. sojae based on the CRISPR/Cas9 system, including sgRNA design, Cas9-sgRNA plasmid construction, homologous replacement vector construction, P. sojae transformation, and detection of mutations, using Ps139767 as an example.

pYF515 (constructed by Fang and Tyler, 2016) (Figure 1)
Figure 1. The pYF515 vector expresses both the Cas9 gene and the sgRNA. The expression of Cas9 and the selection marker NPT II is driven by the Ham34 promoter, and the transcription of sgRNA [including the flanking ribozyme, hammerhead ribozyme (HH ribozyme) and HDV ribozyme] is driven by the RPL41 promoter.
