Plants have developed adaptive strategies to survive under different abiotic stressors. To identify new components involved in abiotic stress tolerance, we screened unannotated expressed sequence tags (ESTs) and evaluated their cold or drought response in Arabidopsis. We identified a drought response gene (DRG) encoding a 39.5-kDa polypeptide. This protein was expressed specifically in siliques and...
We isolated a gene encoding for farnesyl diphosphate synthase (FPS) from Panax ginseng, a species that produces a large quantity of triterpene saponins such as ginsenosides. The deduced amino acid sequence of PgFPS was 77, 84 and 95 % identical to those of Arabidopsis, Hevea, and Centella. Southern blot analysis indicated that P. ginseng contained more than two genes encoding for FPS. When the cDNA...
