摘要:
The invention provides isolated polynucleotide molecules encoding mutant and wild-type alleles of the maize D9 gene. The invention further provides methods for modifying the growth of plants by decreasing or increasing plant height, altering stem and/or root growth, and involving the use of these isolated polynucleotide molecules, isolated polypeptides and transformed plants, seeds and cells.

摘要:
CMIII, a small, basic maize seed peptide has been found to have antimicrobial properties. In a preferred embodiment, plant resistance to diseases caused by plant pathogens which are susceptible to CMIII is produced by inserting into the cells of a plant a gene whose expression causes production CMIII in antimicrobial amounts.

摘要:
The peptide tachyplesin has been found to have antimicrobial activity against plant pathogens. In a preferred embodiment, plant resistance to diseases caused by plant pathogens which are susceptible to this peptide proteins is produced by inserting into the cells of a plant a gene whose expression causes production of tachyplesin in the plant in antimicrobial amounts.
