Abstract
The present invention provides compositions and methods for regulating vacuolar pH. Isolated DNA constructs comprising sequences substantially identical to a Ph gene are provided. The methods typically involve introducing the construct into a plant, whereby vacuolar pH is modified in the transgenic plant.

13. A method of altering vacuolar pH in a plant, the method comprising:
-
introducing into plant tissue a recombinant expression cassette comprising a plant promoter operably linked to a polynucleotide sequence that hybridizes under stringent conditions to a Ph6 nucleic acid having a sequence of SEQ ID NO;
1;regenerating the plant tissue into a whole plant, whereby the regenerated plant transcribes the polynucleotide sequence; and selecting plants having altered vacuolar pH. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
