摘要:
The present disclosure provides methods for increasing drought resistance and heat resistance of a plant. The methods encompass expression of at least one heat shock protein (HSP) from the group consisting of HSP40, HSP60 or HSP70 together with a phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) comprising an aspartic acid (D) at a position that corresponds to the position 509 of SEQ ID NO: 4, in the plant. In comparison to a plant not manipulated in this manner, the disclosed, genetically-modified, plants display improved drought resistance and heat resistance. Also provided are plants that can be obtained by the method according to the invention, and nucleic acid vectors to be used in the described methods.
