Nematode resistance

The present invention relates to a new method for increasing drought resistance of a plant. The method encompasses the impairment of the expression of a gene or genes in said plant. In comparison to a plant not manipulated to impair the expression of said gene(s), the plants display improved drought resistance. Also provided are plants and plant product that can be obtained by the method according to the invention.
