摘要:
Polynucleotides incorporated into expression vectors have been introduced into plants and were ectopically expressed. The encoded polypeptides of the invention have been shown to confer at least one regulatory activity and confer greater size, greater organ size, greater biomass, greater yield, curlier leaves, darker coloration, greater tolerance to water deprivation, delayed flowering, delayed development, delayed senescence, greater tolerance to cold, and/or greater tolerance to hyperosmotic stress as compared to a control plant.

摘要:
The invention relates to plant transcription factor polypeptides, polynucleotides that encode them, homologs from a variety of plant species, and methods of using the polynucleotides and polypeptides to produce transgenic plants having advantageous properties, including increased biomass or improved cold or other osmotic stress tolerance, as compared to wild-type or reference plants. The invention also pertains to expression systems that may be used to regulate these transcription factor polynucleotides, providing constitutive, transient, inducible and tissue-specific regulation.
摘要:
Recombinant polynucleotides and methods for modifying the phenotype of a plant are provided. In particular, the phenotype that is being modified is a plant's biomass. The method comprises altering the levels of a transcription factor that is introduced into the plant or that is endogenous to the plant to obtain a plant with a larger biomass.
摘要:
A method for increasing the levels of a cell protectant, such as sucrose or proline, in a cell is provided. Additionally, a method for modifying the fatty acid composition of a cell is provided. These methods may be used to enhance the cold or freezing tolerance, or drought or high salt tolerance of a cell.
摘要:
The present invention provides for a non-naturally occurring binding protein comprising an amino acid sequence capable of binding to a CCG regulatory sequence and an amino acid sequence which forms a transcription activation region. In particular the invention comprises a sequence selected from the group consisting of an AP2 domain of SEQ. I.D. Nos. 13, 15, 39, 41, 43, 45, 47, 49, 51, 53, 55, 57, 59, 61, 63, 65, 67, 69, 71, 73, 75, 77, 79, 81, 83, 85, 87, 89, 91, 93, and 95. When these proteins are overexpressed in a plant the plant exhibits increased tolerance to environmental stresses such as cold, freezing, drought or high salinity.

摘要:
A transformed plant is provided which comprises one or more environmental stress tolerance genes; a DNA regulatory sequence which regulates expression of the one or more environmental stress tolerance genes; a sequence encoding a binding protein capable of binding to the DNA regulatory sequence and inducing expression of the one or more environmental stress tolerance genes; and a recombinant promoter which regulates expression of the gene encoding the binding protein. A method for altering an environmental stress tolerance of a plant is also provided which comprises the steps of transforming a plant with a promoter which regulates expression of at least one copy of a gene encoding a binding protein capable of binding to a DNA regulatory sequence which regulates one or more environmental stress tolerance genes in the plant; expressing the binding protein encoded by the gene; and stimulating expression of at least one environmental stress tolerance gene through binding of the binding protein to the DNA regulatory sequence.
