PROTEIN REGULATING LEAF LONGEVITY OF PLANTS, THE GENE THEREOF AND THEIR USE

摘要

A novel protein, ORE 15, responsible for the regulation of plant leaf longevity is disclosed. Also, a gene encoding the protein ORE15 is disclosed. The protein and gene can be used in the regulation of plant leaf longevity, including delayed senescence, growth promotion, leaf weight, an size increase.
