Abstract:
PURPOSE: A disaster-inducible pDREB1 promoter derived from potato and an expression vector containing the promoter are provided to efficiently produce crops. CONSTITUTION: A disaster-inducible pDREB1 promoter contains a sequence of sequence number 1. The promoter is derived from potato. The promoter is isolated using a primer set of a sense primer, pDREB1-S(pDREB1-S : 5-TGCGTTACATGTTGGTACCA-3') and an antisense primer, pDREB1-AS(pDREB1-AS: 5-TGTAACAAGGCAAAACACTCA-3'). An expression vector for plant transformation contains the pDREB1 promoter. A method for producing a transgenic plant comprises: a step of preparing the plant expression vector; a step of transforming plant cells with the expression vector; and a step of redifferentitating the transgenic plant.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A broad host range disease resistance gene OsRBI1 is provided to promote expression of genes the enhance plant disease-resistance. CONSTITUTION: A plant has enhanced disease-resistance by improving intracellular level of polypeptide with an amino acid sequence of the sequence number 1. A method for producing a plant with enhanced disease-resistance comprises: a step of preparing an expression vector which overexpresses a polypeptide with the amino acid of the sequence number 1; and a step of transforming the plant with the expression vector. The expression vector comprises a promoter and a polynucleotide which is operably linked to the promoter and encodes the polypeptide of the sequence number 1.
