Three cDNAs encoding desiccation-induced proteins from the resurrection plant Craterostigma plantagineum were each ligated to a triplicated CaMV 35S promoter and a nopaline synthase 3'-flanking region in an Agrobacterium vector and introduced into tobacco. Transgenic plants expressed the encoded
A gene that is homologous to the vp1 genes from maize and rice, the Arabidopsis abi3 gene and PvAlf from Phaseolus vulgaris was isolated from the resurrection plant, Craterostigma plantagineum Hochst, The C. plantagineum gene (epvp1) encodes a protein of 688 amino acids and contains five introns at
A gene from the resurrection plant Craterostigma plantagineum (CDeT6-19) encoding a protein with sequence similarity to a major group of late embryogenesis-abundant proteins (termed rab17, dehydrin or Lea D11) is regulated by abscisic acid (ABA) and desiccation. The corresponding transcript and
The resurrection plant Craterostigma plantagineum can recover from severe desiccation within 24 h of contact with water, and it is used as a model system to analyse desiccation tolerance in higher plants. During drying or ABA treatment a specific set of transcripts accumulates rapidly in leaves and
CDeT27-45 is a lea-like gene from the resurrection plant Craterostigma plantagineum (Scrophulariaceae) which is strongly expressed in vegetative tissues in response to dehydration or treatment with abscisic acid (ABA). Expression of the gene is correlated with the acquisition of desiccation
In the desiccation-tolerant resurrection plant Craterostigma plantagineum Hochst. the chloroplasts undergo major ultrastructural changes during dehydration, which are reversible upon rehydration. Such alterations argue the need for efficient protective/stabilising mechanisms to exist. Here we
In order to understand the molecular mechanisms which are responsible for desiccation tolerance in the resurrection plant Craterostigma plantagineum Hochst. a thorough analysis of the CDeT11-24 gene family was performed. CDeT11-24 comprises a small gene family whose genes are expressed in response
CDeT6-19 is an ABA-regulated gene which has been isolated from Craterostigma plantagineum. The CDeT6-19 gene promoter has been fused to the beta-glucuronidase reporter gene (GUS) and used to stably transform Arabidopsis thaliana and Nicotiana tabacum. This construct has been shown to be expressed in
