RUVX HOLLIDAY JUNCTION RESOLVASE GENES AND METHODS OF USE

摘要

Compositions and methods for modulating recombination in plants are provided. Compositions and methods include the nucleotide sequences of the first plant RuvX homologue that is functional in homologous recombination. RuvX is functional in the resolution of Holliday junctions. The invention finds use in the modulation of the homologous recombination. Also provided are transformed plants, plant cells, plant tissues and seeds.
