Isolated polynucleotides and polypeptides and recombinant DNA constructs particularly useful for altering root structure of plants, compositions (such as plants or seeds) comprising these recombinant DNA constructs, and methods utilizing these recombinant DNA constructs. The recombinant DNA construct comprises a polynucleotide operably linked to a promoter functional in a plant, wherein said polynucleotide encodes a polypeptide useful for altering plant root architecture.

Plants with altered root architecture, related constructs and methods involving genes encoding exostosin family polypeptides and homologs thereof

Plants with altered root architecture, related constructs and methods involving genes encoding leucine rich repeat kinase (LLRK) polypeptides and homologs thereof

The present disclosure is directed to isolated nucleic acid fragments comprising a root-preferred maize NAS2 promoter, a functional fragment thereof, and end-uses and methods utilizing said fragments. Functional fragment NAS2 promoters include those containing the Root Motif 1, the CAAT box, and the TATA box; the Pyrimidine Box, the Pyrimidine-rich Stretch, the QAR, the Root Motif 1, the CAAT box, and the TATA box; and the Pyrimidine Box, the Pyrimidine-rich Stretch, the QAR, the Root Motif 1, and the CAAT box.

Plants with altered root architecture, involving the rum1 gene, related constructs and methods

This invention relates to an isolated nucleic acid fragment encoding an Mlo homolog. The invention also relates to the construction of a chimeric gene encoding all or a portion of the Mlo homolog, in sense or antisense orientation, wherein expression of the chimeric gene results in production of altered levels of the Mlo homolog in a transformed host cell.

Plant disease resistance genes

This invention relates to an isolated nucleic acid fragment encoding an Mlo-like polypeptide. The invention also relates to the construction of a chimeric gene encoding all or a portion of the Mlo-like polypeptide, in sense or antisense orientation, wherein expression of the chimeric gene results in production of altered levels of the Mlo-like polypeptide in a transformed host cell.

Corn cDNAs encoding corn Mlo proteins

This invention relates to an isolated nucleic acid fragment encoding a SCLB,protein. The invention also relates to the construction of a chimeric gene encoding all or a portion of the SCLB,protein, in sense or antisense orientation, wherein expression of the chimeric gene results in production of altered levels of the SCLB,protein in a transformed host cell.
