Abstract
Authors reported the success in the improvement of stress resistant ability of Eucalyptus by using the control factor of the stress resistant mechanism derived from Arabidopsis in JSPP annual meeting at Okayama last year(Supplement, Plant Cell Physiol., 43, s113, 2002). However, it is necessary to add the improvement of expression system of the transgene to actually use it as a multi stress resistant tree. It is important to analyze the stress response mechanism of Eucalyptus to do effective expression of the control factor especially, and to use this. Authors analyzed the gene expression when it used with Eucalyptus as the material, and the salt stress was given. In addition, using these promoter regions derived from genes increased by salt stress and the reporter gene (GUS, GFP), several fusion genes were constructed. These genes are introduced into Eucalyptus, now.
