Aspects of the disclosure relate to systems and methods for enhancing plant performance by identifying and manipulating the expression of plant genes involved in UV-B mediated improvements to hardiness and growth. Some aspects of the disclosure relate to systems and methods for identifying plant novel genes responsive to light stimulation. Some aspects of the disclosure relate to systems and methods for identifying transgenic plants improved so as to present desired agronomic traits associated with UV-B light stimulation. Some aspects of the disclosure relate to systems and methods for modulating plant sensitivity to light for enhancing plant performance or a desired agronomic trait. Some aspects of the disclosure relate to systems and methods for generating stable transgenic plants that exhibit a desired agronomic trait.
A transgenic plant comprising an isolated polynucleotide comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding a modulator that is responsive to UV-B administration in a plant material of the transgenic plant, wherein the transgenic plant produces at least one enhanced phenotype in an absence of supplementary UV-B irradiation, and wherein the at least one enhanced phenotype is selected from the group consisting of increased crop yield, growth rate, hardiness, stress resistance, and pathological resistance when compared to a plant lacking the modulator.
