Abstract
The present invention relates to the field of transgenic plants with novel phenotypes, especially plants with enhanced drought tolerance. Provided are SHINE proteins and nucleic acid sequences encoding these, which are useful in conferring novel phenotypes to plants.
Claims13
A transgenic monocotyledonous crop plant comprising a chimeric gene, integrated in its genome, which chimeric gene comprises a transcription regulatory sequence active in plant cells, operably linked to a nucleic acid sequence encoding a SHN protein that comprises the sequence SEQ ID NO:15.
A chimeric gene comprising a tissue specific-, inducible- or developmentally-regulated promoter active in plant cells, operably linked to a nucleic acid sequence encoding a SHN protein that comprises the amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO:15.
