US Patent:

20040078839, Apr 22, 2004
Filed:

Oct 15, 2003
Appl. No.:

10/686064
Inventors:

Mitchell Tarczynski - West Des Moines IA, US
Marianne Laporte - Ames IA, US
Bo Shen - Johnston IA, US
Assignee:

Pioneer Hi-Bred International, Inc. - Des Moines IA
International Classification:

A01H001/00
C12N015/82
US Classification:

800/278000, 800/289000
Abstract:

A method for modulating water-use efficiency or productivity in a plant is provided. In particular, stomatal aperture in a plant can be regulated by transforming the plant with a polynucleotide capable of modifying malate accumulation in the plant.

US Patent:

6653535, Nov 25, 2003
Filed:

May 28, 1999
Appl. No.:

09/321991
Inventors:

Michell C. Tarczynski - West Des Moines IA
Marianne M. Laporte - Ames IA
Bo Shen - Johnston IA
Assignee:

Pioneer Hi-Bred International, Inc. - Des Moines IA
International Classification:

A01H 500
US Classification:

8003201, 435419, 435468, 800278, 800298, 800306, 800312, 800314, 8003174, 800320, 800287, 8003202, 8003203, 800322
Abstract:

A method for modulating water-use efficiency or productivity in a plant is provided. In particular, stomatal aperture in a plant can be regulated by transforming the plant with a polynucleotide that encodes a NADP-malic enzyme operably linked to a guard cell or an epidermal cell promoter that modifies malate accumulation in the stomata.
