UCL1 gene from Arabidopsis thaliana and uses thereof

摘要

PURPOSE: A method for reducing CLF protein activity of a plant using UCL1 gene is provided to develop a transgenic plant with controlled phenotype. CONSTITUTION: A method for reducing the activity of CLF(curly leaf) protein of a plant comprises a step of transforming a recombinant vector containing Arabidopsis thaliana-derivative UCL1(upward curly leaf1) gene into plant cells and a step of overexpressing the UCL1 gene. The UCL1 gene has a base sequence of sequence number 1. The plant is a dicotyledonous plant. A composition for reducing CLF protein activity of a plant contains the UCL1 gene.
