Methods of increasing abiotic stress tolerance and/or biomass in plants

摘要

Provided are methods of increasing the tolerance of a plant to abiotic stresses and/or increasing the biomass and/or increasing the yield of a plant by expressing within the plant an exogenous polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide homologous to SEQ ID NO:240, such as the polynucleotide set forth by SEQ ID NO:14.

主权项

1. A method of increasing abiotic stress tolerance, biomass and/or seed yield of a plant, comprising transforming a cell of the plant with a nucleic acid construct which comprises an exogenous polynucleotide encoding the polypeptide set forth by SEQ ID NO: 240, thereby increasing the abiotic stress tolerance, biomass and/or seed yield of the plant.
