Abstract
Provided is a plant having a desired phenotype and/or desired stress resistance. Provided is a transgenic plant overexpressing a polypeptide that has the activity to control plant morphology or the activity to enhance the environmental stress resistance of plants, wherein the polypeptide(s) is one polypeptide or are a plurality of polypeptides selected from among polypeptides comprising the amino acid sequences represented by SEQ ID NOS: 1-317.

A method for producing a transgenic plant, comprising introducing a gene encoding a polypeptide that has the activity to control plant morphology or a polypeptide that has the activity to enhance the environmental stress resistance of plants into a host plant and then causing the overexpression thereof, wherein the polypeptide(s) is one polypeptide or are a plurality of polypeptides selected from the following (a) to (d):
- (a) a polypeptide comprising any one of the amino acid sequences represented by SEQ ID NOS:
- 21, 1-20 and 22-317;
- (b) a polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence that has a deletion, a substitution, an addition or an insertion of 1 or several amino acids with respect to any one of the amino acid sequences represented by SEQ ID NOS:
