"NUCLEIC ACID ISOLATED, EXPRESSION VECTOR, PLANT CELL, PLANT, METHOD FOR PRODUCING A TRANSGENIC PLANT, COMPOSITION, METHODS FOR CONTROLING PLANT GROWTH, FOR STIMULATING THE TIBERANCE FOR A CROSS PLANTS, , AND, USE OF NUCLEIC ACID ". This invention relates to plants and plant cells that express enzymes metabolizing heterologous D-amino acids and may thus employ D-amino acids as a nitrogen source. Methods and means are provided to selectively modulate growth and stress tolerance of these plants using D-amino acids.
