Abstract:
The invention provides for compositions and methods for producing plants that have higher yield in drought conditions by manipulating the G-proteins such as the rice alpha subunit gene, RGA1. In particular, the present invention provides for plants, varieties, lines, and hybrids, as well as plant tissues and plant seeds that contain modified G-protein activity, particularly RGA1 activity to engineer drought tolerance and improved seed production in plants, as well as improved tolerance to high density planting
