Plant cell signaling genes
View Patent ↗Novel plant cell signaling genes and gene products are provided. These gene, polypeptide and oligonucleotide sequences are useful in regulating plant phenotype. Moreover, these genes and gene products are useful for expression profiling of plant cell signaling genes. The invention specifically provides polynucleotide and polypeptide sequences isolated from Eucalyptus and Pinus species.
1. An isolated polynucleotide comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 319.
2. A DNA construct comprising the isolated polynucleotide of claim 1 .
3. The DNA construct of claim 2 , further comprising a promoter, wherein the promoter and the polynucleotide are operably linked.
4. The DNA construct of claim 2 , wherein the polynucleotide encodes an RNA transcript.
5. The DNA construct of claim 4 , wherein the polynucleotide is in a sense or antisense orientation relative to the promoter.
6. The DNA construct of claim 4 , wherein the RNA transcript induces RNA interference of a polynucleotide having a nucleic acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 122.
7. A plant cell transformed with the DNA construct of claim 2 .
8. The DNA construct of claim 6 , wherein the RNA transcript is a small interfering RNA.
9. An isolated polynucleotide comprising the nucleic acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 122.
