The invention discloses an application of an
MYB28
protein and an encoding
gene thereof in regulation and control of tolerance of plants on ABA. The application provided by the invention is an application of the
protein as shown in a sequence 3 in the following aspects: (a1) regulation and control of the tolerance of plants on ABA; (a2) breeding of a
plant variety which is lowered or increased in the tolerance on ABA; (a3) regulation and control of vivipary resistance of plants; and (a4) breeding of a
plant variety which is increased or lowered in the vivipary resistance. The
MYB28
protein can be applied to obtaining of
MYB28 low-expressed and herbicide-resistant transgenic crops employing
plant hormone ABA as a selective herbicide through
genetic engineering means, so as to achieve selective weeding; the
germination rate of plant seeds can also be controlled by adjusting the expression level of the MYB28; MYB28
gene high-expressed and vivipary-resistant transgenic crops can be obtained through the
genetic engineering means; the application conforms to the requirements of
sustainable agriculture development, and has important practical value and market prospects in the aspects such as development of green, environment-friendly and
pollution-free weeding methods and improvement of eating quality and storage quality of seeds.
