摘要:
Polynucleotides incorporated into nucleic acid constructs 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 earlier flowering, longer floral organ retention, increased cold tolerance, greater tolerance to water deprivation, altered carbon-nitrogen balance sensing, increased low nitrogen tolerance, and/or increased tolerance to hyperosmotic stress as compared to a control plant.
摘要:
The application describes producing polynucleotide variants of the AtHB 17 clade members and introducing the mutant variants into plants to improve plant traits. The mutant polynucleotides encode polypeptides that comprise mutations in the EAR motifs.
摘要:
Transcription factor polynucleotides and polypeptides incorporated into nucleic acid constructs, including expression vectors, have been introduced into plants and were ectopically expressed. Transgenic plants transformed with many of these constructs have been shown to have increased tolerance to an abiotic stress (in some cases, to more than one abiotic stress), increased growth, and/or increased biomass. The abiotic stress may include, for example, salt, hyperosmotic stress, water deficit, heat, cold, drought, and/or low nutrient conditions.
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 compared to a reference plant. Sequence information related to these polynucleotides and polypeptides can also be used in bioinformatic search methods and is also disclosed.

摘要:
The instant disclosure provides methods to identify herbicidal compositions that consist of a combination of compounds that inhibit the growth of or kill undesired plant species in a synergistic manner. Also provided are herbicidal compositions identified using this method.
摘要:
The present invention provides varieties of fertile Miscanthus that have greater water deficit tolerance, greater vigor, greater cold tolerance, later flowering, and/or higher biomass, i.e., greater biomass than a control Miscanthus plant, and methods for producing and using the said Miscanthus varieties. These varieties may be used to produce cellulosic biofuels, or to produce inbred or hybrid Miscanthus plants. Plant cells, seeds and other plant parts are also described.
摘要:
The invention relates to plant transcription factor polypeptides, polynucleotides that encode them, homologs from a variety of plant species, variants of naturally-occurring sequences, and methods of using the polynucleotides and polypeptides to produce transgenic plants having advantageous properties, including improved cold and 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:
Altering the activity of specific regulatory proteins in plants, for example, by knocking down or knocking out HY5 clade or STH2 clade protein expression, or by modifying COP1 clade protein expression, can have beneficial effects on plant performance, including improved stress tolerance and yield.
