Abstract: The present invention provides purified, corn seedling-derived polynucleotides (cdps) which encode corn seedling-derived polypeptides (CDPs). The invention also provides for the use of cdps or their complements, oligonucleotides, or fragments in methods for determining altered gene expression, to recover regulatory elements, and to follow inheritance of desirable characteristics through hybrid breeding programs. The invention further provides for vectors and host cells containing cdps for the expression of CDPs. The invention additionally provides for (i) use of isolated and purified CDPs to induce antibodies and to screen libraries of compounds and (ii) use of anti-CDP antibodies in diagnostic assays.

Abstract: Methods for increasing the biomass of a plant and levels of a cell protectant in a plant, such as sucrose or proline, or plant cell are provided. The methods comprise altering expression levels of a polynucleotide comprising a sequence encoding a C-repeat/DRE binding factor (CBF)-related polypeptide in a plant and identifying plants so altered.. These methods may be used to enhance yield, or cold, freezing, drought, and high salt tolerance of a plant or plant cell.
