  • METHODS AND MEANS TO PRODUCE ABIOTIC STRESS TOLERANT PLANTS
    Publication number: 20140130208
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of plant molecular biology and concerns methods for enhancing the abiotic stress tolerance in plants by modulating the expression of a gene involved in the ethylene signal transduction pathway during the period of abiotic stress. The present invention also provides chimeric constructs useful in the methods in the invention. In addition, the invention provides transgenic plants having an enhanced abiotic stress resistance.
