The novel constructs and methods of this invention improve tolerance in plants to environmental stresses and senescence. Nucleic acids encoding a plant farnesyl transferase are described, as are transgenic plants and seeds incorporating these nucleic acids and proteins. Also provided are inhibitors of naturally-occurring farnesyl transferase which, when expressed, will enhance drought tolerance in the plants, improve resistance to senescence and modify growth habit.
L'invention concerne de nouvelles constructions et des procédés permettant d'améliorer la résistance des plantes aux stress environnementaux et à la sénescence. L'invention concerne également des acides nucléiques codant pour une farnésyl transférase de plante, telle que des plantes transgéniques et des graines incorporant des protéines et lesdits acides nucléiques. L'invention concerne enfin des inhibiteurs de farnésyl transférase naturelle, qui lorsqu'ils ont exprimés, améliorent la résistance des plantes à la sécheresse et à la sénescence, et modifient les habitudes de croissance.
