Abstract
Compositions and methods of use are provided herein to make and use transgenic plants with value-added traits.
Claims32
A transgenic monocot plant selected from the group consisting of barley and wheat wherein at least a part of said plant comprises a recombinant nucleic acid comprising a promoter active in said part operably linked to a nucleic acid encoding a thioredoxin h polypeptide wherein said promoter is a seed or grain maturation-specific promoter and said thioredoxin h polypeptide is selected from the group consisting of barley, rice, Arabidopsis, soybean, wheat, tobacco and Brassica thioredoxin.
The transgenic monocot seed or grain selected from the group consisting of barley and wheat comprising a recombinant nucleic acid comprising a promoter active in said seed or grain operably linked to a nucleic acid molecule encoding a barley, rice, Arabidopsis, soybean, wheat, tobacco, or Brassica thioredoxin h polypeptide wherein said promoter is a seed or grain maturation-specific promoter.
