METHODS FOR CULTIVATING PLANTS WITH IMPROVED GROWTH RATE UNDER LIMITED NITROGEN LEVEL

摘要

FIELD: chemistry.;SUBSTANCE: present invention concerns plant gene engineering. A plant with increased content of 2-oxoglutarate (2-OG) is cultivated. Increased content of 2-OG is achieved either by expression of GDH or ECASPC gene introduced to the plant or by spraying plant leaves with praline. It allows cultivation of plants with improved growth rate and/or yield under limited nitrogen level.;EFFECT: cultivation of plants at improved growth rate under limited nitrogen level.;10 cl, 33 dwg, 11 tbl, 16 ex
