  • DROUGHT TOLERANT PLANTS AND RELATED CONSTRUCTS AND METHODS INVOLVING GENES ENCODING DTP6 POLYPEPTIDES
    Publication number: 20170211088
    Abstract: Isolated polynucleotides and polypeptides and recombinant DNA constructs useful for conferring drought tolerance, compositions (such as plants or seeds) comprising these recombinant DNA constructs, and methods utilizing these recombinant DNA constructs. The recombinant DNA construct comprises a polynucleotide operably linked to a promoter that is functional in a plant, wherein said polynucleotide encodes a DTP6 polypeptide.
    Type: Application

  • Methods for the identification of genes involved in abiotic stress tolerance in plants
    Patent number: 9546377
    Abstract: Methods are described for the identification of genes useful for conferring tolerance in plants to abiotic stress. Transgenic plants and seeds comprising the stress tolerant genes are also described. Methods to monitor the growth rate of the transgenic plants under stressed or non-stressed conditions are also described.
