An objective of the present invention is to genetically improve plant crossing properties as to effectively prevent recombinant genes in transgenic plants from spreading into the environment. A TFIIIA-type zinc-finger transcription factor gene ZPT2-10 was introduced into petunia. As a result, some of the transformants (i.e., transgene-dependent incompatibility (TDI) strain plants) were found to have a useful crossing property. Specifically, the plants were fertile and produced normal seeds when self propagated or mated with another specified transformant comprising the same recombinant gene, but were infertile (transgene dependent incompatibility) when mated with another transformant strain that does not have the TDI property or with a wild-type plant. It may be possible to utilize plants having such a crossing property to prevent transgenic plants from spreading into the environment.
