NAC TRANSCRIPTIONAL ACTIVATORS INVOLVED IN ABIOTIC STRESS TOLERANCE

摘要

The present invention provides compositions and methods for regulating expression of nucleotide sequences in a plant. Compositions comprise novel nucleic acid sequences encoding a transcriptional activator involved in modulating gene expression in response to abiotic stress such as cold or drought. Methods for expressing the nucleic acid sequence in a plant and improving cold and/or drought tolerance of plants are also provided.
