AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies are insufficient in improving plant resistance to multiple abiotic stresses, especially under high temperature, low temperature, drought and high salt stress. There is a lack of genes that can significantly increase plant seed weight, making it difficult to provide effective genetic improvement programs.
This invention provides a PenCBP gene from passion fruit and its application. By cloning the gene and inserting it into an expression vector, the target plant is transformed using Agrobacterium-mediated transformation or gene gun transformation to achieve overexpression of the PenCBP gene, thereby improving the plant's drought resistance, heat resistance, and cold resistance.
It significantly improves the plant's ability to survive abiotic stresses, increases seed weight, expands leaf area, thickens inflorescence stalks, and lengthens pods, providing a technical solution for cross-species genetic improvement.
