Explosive increase of population In developing countries Environmental degradation and climatic change around the world Progress in genetic engineering Development of crop plants tolerant to environmental stresses such as drought, salt loading and freezing

Drought environmental stress Plant response to environmental stresses Temperature stress Plant Cell High salinity Signal Perception Signal Transduction Gene Expression Stress Response and Tolerance

Strategies to engineer environmental stress tolerance in plants Promoters control gene expression under environmental stress conditions Transgenic techniques for various crops to introduce useful genes PromoterGene PromoterGene Genes function in tolerance to environmental stresses

Arabidopsis thaliana as a model plant Good for genetic analysis (2n). Small plants easily grown. Short life cycle (6-8 weeks). Smallest genome in plant kingdom (1.2 X 10 8 bp, 5 chromosomes). Gene number is about 26,000. Genome sequence was determined in Arabidopsis resource centers supply mutants and DNA libraries. Efficient transformation for functional analysis of genes.

Environmental stress tolerance Environmental Stress Tolerance gene expression Overexpression of DREB1A DREB1A gene regulates a lot of target genes to enhance tolerance to environmental stresses Expression of more than 40 genes Tolerance gene expression Tolerance gene expression Enhanced stress tolerance Drought and High salinity Signal Perception DREB1A Tolerance gene expression Enhanced expression of more than 40 genes Tolerance gene expression Tolerance gene expression DREB1A Signal Perception

Combinations of promoters and transcription factors ① Constitutive promoter (35S) + DREB1A DREB1A gene Constitutive promoter The constitutive promoter leads to generate DREB1A products all the time ② Stress-inducible promoter (RD29A) + DREB1A DREB1A gene Stress-inducible promoter The stress-inducible promoter leads to generate DREB1A products only under stress conditions
