    摘要: Plant growth habit is altered by causing either under-expression or over-expression of profilin in a plant cell. Under-expression of profilin can be achieved by transforming a plant or plant cell with a gene expressing an antisense mRNA complementary to the mRNA transcribed by the coding sequence of a profilin gene and expressing the gene in the plant or plant cell such that the antisense mRNA inhibits the production of the profilin in the plant or plant cell. Under-expression of profilins in plants can lead to such alterations in growth habit as a dwarf phenotype, a reduced root and root hair system, and delay in the onset of flowering. Over-expression of profilin can be achieved by transforming a plant or plant cell with a gene capable of expressing a profilin in the plant or plant cell and causing the transformed gene to be expressed in the plant or plant cell. Over-expression of profilin in a plant can lead to such alterations in growth habit as a tall phenotype, an expansion of the root and root hair system, expansion of leaf surface area and accelerating the onset of flowering.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method for producing a transformed plant cell. More particularly, the method involves the transformation of a plant cell with a Transformation Cassette which is targeted to plant plastids and which comprises a selection gene, for example isopentenyl transferase (IPT), and a transgene. After selection for transformed plastids, expression of a recombinase is induced in the plant cell, which leads to the excision of the selection gene from the plastid and the expression of the transgene in the plastid. The invention also provides cells and plants comprising the Transformation Cassette.

    摘要: A plant gene, Esr2, has been found which when overexpressed in plant cells results in cells which have cytokinin-independent cell growth. This feature allows the encoded protein ESR2 to be used as a selectable marker of transformed cells by growing the transformed cells on cytokinin-free media. It has also been found that overexpression of ESR2 in cells grown in the presence of cytokinins results in a higher regeneration of plants. This feature allows the gene to be used to obtain greater regeneration of plant cells.

    摘要: A cDNA clone (HEV1) encoding hevein was isolated via polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using mixed oligonucleotides corresponding to two regions of hevein as primers and a Hevea brasiliensis latex cDNA library as a template. HEV1 is 1018 nucleotides long and includes an open reading frame of 204 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence contains a putative signal sequence of 17 amino acid residues followed by a 187 amino acid polypeptide. The amino-terminal region (43 amino acids) is identical to hevein and shows homology to several chitin-binding proteins and to the amino-termini of wound-induced genes in potato and poplar. The carboxyl-terminal portion of the polypeptide (144 amino acids) is 74-79% homologous to the carboxyl-terminal region of wound-inducible genes of potato. Wounding, as well as application of the plant hormones abscisic acid and ethylene, resulted in accumulation of hevein transcripts in leaves, stems and latex, but not in roots, as shown by using the cDNA as a probe. A fusion protein was produced in E. coli from the protein of the present invention and maltose binding protein produced by the E. coli.

    摘要: A group of genes including GhCIR1 from cotton (Gossypium hirsutum), and AtCIR1 and AtCIR2 from Arabidopsis thaliana promote shoot regeneration in plants even in the absence of cytokinin. In the presence of cytokinin, the genes significantly improve transformation efficiency. The genes can be used as an enhancer as well as a selectable marker of transformation in plants. The proteins encoded by the novel genes have a homeodomain (HD) at the N-terminus and a highly divergent domain at the C-terminus. The proteins share a common structural motif.

    摘要: Chemically inducible promoters are described that may be used to transform plants, including tobacco and lettuce, with genes which are easily regulatable by adding the plants or plant cells to a medium containing an inducer of the promoter or by removing the plants or plant cells from such medium. The promoters described are ones that are inducible by a glucocorticoid or estrogen which is not endogenous to plants. Such promoters may be used with a variety of genes such as ipt, CKI1, or knotted1, to induce shoot formation in the presence of an appropriate inducer. The promoters may be used with genes which induce somatic embryos such as Lec1 or SERK to prepare somatic embryos which can be grown into seedlings and then into plants. The promoter may also be used with antibiotic or herbicide resistance genes which are then regulatable by the presence or absence of inducer rather than being constitutive. Other examples of genes which may be placed under the control of the inducible promoter are also presented.

    摘要: Disclosed is a chemically inducible promoter for transforming plants or plant cells with genes which are regulatable by adding the plants or cells to a medium containing an inducer or by removing them from such medium. The promoter is inducible by a glucocorticoid, estrogen or inducer not endogenous to plants. Such promoters may be used with any plant genes that can promote shoot regeneration and development to induce shoot formation in the presence of a glucocorticoid, estrogen or inducer. The promoter may be used with antibiotic or herbicide resistance genes or other genes which are regulatable by the presence or absence of a given inducer. Also presented are organisms or cells comprising a gene wherein the natural promoter of the gene is disrupted and the gene is placed under the control of a transgenic inducible promoter. These organisms and cells and their progeny are useful for screening for conditional gain of function and loss of function mutations.
