MODIFIED PLANT TRANSCRIPTION FACTORS

摘要

The invention relates to modified plant transcription factor polypeptides, polynucleotides that encode them, homologs from a variety of plant species, and methods of producing transgenic plants having advantageous properties, including increased abiotic stress tolerance, as compared to wild-type or control plants. Without the disclosed modifications, the transcription factor sequences, when overexpressed in plants, often produce adverse morphological and developmental effects. The disclosed modifications mitigate these adverse morphological and developmental effects.
