Abstract
Isolated polynucleotides and polypeptides, and recombinant DNA constructs useful for regulating plant sterility are provided, and methods utilizing these recombinant DNA constructs are also provided. Compositions comprising these recombinant DNA constructs or a modified endogenous sterile gene are further provided.
Claims3
A polynucleotide, wherein said polynucleotide comprises:
- a nucleotide sequence encoding a polypeptide with an amino acid sequence of at least 95% identity to SEQ ID NO:
- 41;
- wherein increasing expression of the polynucleotide in a plant confers female sterility to the plant, wherein said polynucleotide is operably linked to at least one heterologous regulatory element.
