Abstract
This disclosure provides purified nucleic acids and polypeptides and various uses of these sequences. Also provided are transgenic plants, seeds, and plant cells containing DNA for expression of the proteins that are useful for imparting enhanced agronomic trait(s) to transgenic crop plants, methods of making such plants and methods of making agricultural commodity including seeds and hybrid seeds from such plants.
Claims9
A plant cell having recombinant DNA construct comprising a promoter that is functional in the plant cell and is operably linked to a polynucleotide that:
- (a) encodes a protein having an amino acid sequence having at least 90% identity over at least 90% of the length of a reference sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO:
- 65975-131948, when said amino acid sequence is aligned to said reference sequence;
- or
- (b) is transcribed into an RNA molecule that suppresses the level of an endogenous protein that has an amino acid sequence that is at least 90% identical over at least 90% of the length of a reference sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 65975-131948, when said amino acid sequence is aligned to said reference sequence;
- and
- wherein said construct is stably integrated into a chromosome in a plant cell nucleus.
