METHOD FOR PRODUCING COLD OR FREEZING TOLERANT PLANTS TRANSFORMED WITH GENE ENCODING OSGRP1 PROTEIN FROM RICE

摘要

PURPOSE: A method for enhancing low temperature resistance or freezing tolerance using a gene encoding RNA-binding protein(OsGRP) is provided to ensure excellent germination rate at low temperature. CONSTITUTION: A plant with low temperature resistance or freezing tolerance is prepared by a recombinant vector containing Oriza sativa-derived OsGRP(Oryza sativa glycine-rich RNA-binding protein) gene with a base sequence of sequence number 1. The plant is Arabidopsis thaliana. A method for producing the plant with low temperature resistance or freezing tolerance comprises: a step of transforming a plant cells with the recombinant vector; and a step of redifferentiating a transgenic plant form the transformed plant cells.
