Patent ID: 7772461

Claim:
A method of producing a transgenic plant having a molybdenum transporter activity, wherein the method comprises the steps: (a) constructing a recombinant vector comprising a DNA operably linked to a promoter, wherein the DNA is selected from the group consisting of: (a1) a DNA encoding a molybdenum transporter consisting of the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 2, 31, 33, or 35; (a2) a DNA consisting of the nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1, 30, 32 or 34; (a3) a DNA having at least 95% homology with the nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID No: 1, 30, 32 or 34 and which encodes a protein having molybdenum transporter activity; and (b) introducing the recombinant vector into a plant cell.
