Title:
PLANT PROHIBITIN GENES AND THEIR USE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2000015818
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Compositions and methods for modulating cell cycle and cell proliferation are provided. Additionally the compositions find use in enhancing disease resistance and increasing transformation efficiency in plants. The method involves transforming a plant with a sence or antisense prohibitin sequence. The prohibitin sequence acts to regulate cell division in the plant cell. Transformed plants, plant cells, tissues, and seed are also provided having enhanced disease resistance.
