NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE ENCODING WUSCHEL-RELATED HOMEOBOX4(WOX4) PROTEIN FROM CORCHORUS OLITORIUS AND CORCHORUS CAPSULARIS AND METHODS OF USE FOR SAME

The present invention is directed to two types of jute plants， namely Corcorus olitorius (" C. olitorius") And Corcorus Capsule Larris ("C. capsularisAn isolated polynucleotide encoding a WUSCHEL-related homeobox4 protein from )， and a corresponding polypeptide derived therefrom are disclosed. The disclosed polynucleotide sequences are catalytically active in enhancing fibrous production in jute. Encodes a WUSCHEL-related homeobox4 polypeptide (WOX4) having a modified expression of a nucleic acid encoding a WOX4 polypeptide with improved fibrous yield compared to a corresponding wild type plant or other control plant. A genie is also provided， a vector， an expression construct， and a host cell comprising and / or consisting of the nucleotide sequence of the protein are also provided .. Modification of the protein to improve the method of producing the protein and desirable characteristics of the protein A method is disclosed， wherein the protein of the invention is a plant Chapter， plant height can be used in a variety of ways， which comprises (plant height)， leading to fiber and seed yield， discloses， improved or enhanced. The present invention discloses isolated polynucleotides encoding WUSCHEL-related homeobox4 proteins from two species of jute plants， namely， the Corchorus olitorius ("C. olitorius") and Corchorus capsularis ("C. capsularis")， and corresponding polypeptides derived therefrom. The disclosed polynucleotide sequences encode WUSCHEL-related homeobox4 polypeptides (WOX4)， which possess catalytic activities in enhancing fiber production in jute. The present invention also relates to the plants having a modulated expression of a nucleic acid encoding a WOX4 polypeptide， which have enhanced fiber yield relative to corresponding wild type plants or other control plants. Vectors， expression constructs and host cells comprising and/or consisting of the nucleotide sequences of the protein are also provided. Also disclosed are methods for producing the proteins and methods for modifying the proteins in order to improve their desirable characteristics. The proteins of the invention can be used in a variety of ways， including inducing， initiating， improving， or enhancing plant growth， plant height， fiber and seed yield.
