Isolated polynucleotides and polypeptides, and recombinant DNA constructs, suppression DNA constructs and CRISPR/Cas9 DNA constructs are provided. Compositions (such as plants or seeds) with modified expression or activity of the isolated polypeptides are obtained by transforming the regenerable plant cell with a suppression DNA construct or CRISPR/Cas construct. The plants with improving drought tolerance are obtained by decreasing the expression or activity of the isolated polynucleotide.

Constructs and methods to improve abiotic stress tolerance in plants

Isolated polynucleotides and polypeptides, and recombinant DNA constructs are useful for conferring improved drought tolerance, and/or for regulating flowering time. Compositions (such as plants or seeds) comprise these recombinant DNA constructs; and methods utilize these recombinant DNA constructs. The recombinant DNA constructs comprise a polynucleotide operably linked to a promoter that is functional in a plant, wherein said polynucleotides encode drought tolerance polypeptides and/or flowering time-regulating polypeptide.
