Abstract: The present invention relates to novel DNA sequences encoding insecticidal Cry1 C proteins derived from Bacillus thuringiensis, and their use in plants to control insect pests. Also included herein are plant cells or plants comprising such genes and methods of making or using them, as well as plant cells or plants comprising a Cry1 C chimeric gene of the invention and at least one other chimeric gene, such as a chimeric gene encoding an insecticidal Cry1Ab protein, and methods of making or using such plant cells or plants.

Abstract: The invention provides methods for producing a plant with increased stress-tolerance and yield, as well as chimeric genes for use according to the methods and plant comprising such chimeric genes.

Abstract: Stress tolerance in plants and plant cells is achieved by using nucleotide sequences encoding enzymes involved in the NAD salvage synthesis pathway and/or the NAD de novo synthesis pathway e.g. for overexpression in plants.

Abstract: The invention relates to stamen-specific promoters derived from corn genes. These promoters includes two DNA sequences selected from sequences in SEQ ID NO:2 or SEQ ID NO:3. The invention also includes DNA including the stamen-specific promoters operably linked to a heterologous structural gene. The structural genes include those such as ribonuclease, barnase, and an A fragment of diphtheria toxin. The stamen-specific promoter may have its untranslated leader sequence replaced by the untranslated leader sequence of another gene. The invention also includes plant cells, plants, or seeds including these promoters and promoter-structural gene systems. The promoter may be in DNA that is stably integrated into the plant or seed.
