摘要
By differential screening of a cDNA library constructed from poly (A(+)) RNA of ABA-treated seeds of Fagus sylvatica L., we have isolated an ABA-responsive clone that is present in dormant seeds and under conditions that maintain dormancy, but it tends to disappear under conditions breaking seed dormancy. A search of the sequence data bases showed that the clone codes for a Glycine-Rich Protein and has sequence similarity to RNA-binding proteins, The clone, which exibits the characteristics of lea-genes, is up-regulated by ABA and down-regulated by GA(3). Paclobutrazol abolishes the effect of GA(3), which is restored upon addition of GA(3). The possible relationship of this Glycine-Rich Protein to seed dormancy in F. sylvatica is discussed.
