Peroxisomal ascorbate peroxidase gene induced by high temperature stress and a transgenic plant exhibiting thermotolerance

摘要

This invention provides a novel method to render thermotolerance to a plant. In the concrete, this method provides peroxisomal ascorbate peroxidase gene of barely, a novel gene induced by high temperature stress. Moreover, this invention provides a transgenic plant exhibiting resistance to high-temperature stress, produced by incorporating said gene.
