US 7,598,084 B2 · Modifications of plant traits using cyclin A

Abstract

Novel plant polysaccharide synthesis genes and polypeptides encoded by such genes are provided. These genes and polynucleotide sequences are useful regulating polysaccharide synthesis and plant phenotype. Moreover, these genes are useful for expression profiling of plant polysaccharide synthesis genes. The invention specifically provides cell cycle polynucleotide and polypeptide sequences isolated from Eucalyptus and Pinus. The invention also provides for the expression of cyclin A genes to modify the physical traits of a transgenic plant.

Claims4

Dependent claims

A DNA construct comprising a polynucleotide which comprises (i) the sequence of SEQ ID NO. 136, or (ii) a sequence that encodes the protein sequence of SEQ ID NO. 396, operably linked in sense orientation to a promoter, wherein the promoter is selected from the group consisting of a constitutive promoter, an inducible promoter, a regulatable promoter, a temporally regulated promoter, and a tissue-preferred promoter.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
