  • Phosphatase stress-related proteins and methods of use in plants
    Patent number: 7482510
    Abstract: A transgenic plant transformed by a phosphatase stress-related protein (PHSRP) coding nucleic acid, wherein expression of the nucleic acid sequence in the plant results in increased tolerance to environmental stress as compared to a wild type variety of the plant. Also provided are agricultural products, including seeds, produced by the transgenic plants. Also provided are isolated PHSRPs, and isolated nucleic acid coding PHSRPs, and vectors and host cells containing the latter.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 3, 2007
    Date of Patent: January 27, 2009
    Assignee: BASF Plant Science GmbH
    Inventors: Oswaldo da Costa e Silva, Hans J. Bohnert, Nocha van Thielen, Rouying Chen, Manabu Ishitani

  • Cell cycle stress-related proteins and methods of use in plants
    Patent number: 6710229
    Abstract: A transgenic plant transformed by a Cell Cycle Stress-Related Protein (CCSRP) coding nucleic acid, wherein expression of the nucleic acid sequence in the plant results in increased tolerance to environmental stress as compared to a wild type variety of the plant. Also provided are agricultural products, including seeds, produced by the transgenic plants. Also provided are isolated CCSRPs, and isolated nucleic acid coding CCSRPs, and vectors and host cells containing the latter.
