Abstract:
The present invention relates to a new method for increasing drought resistance of a plant. The method encompasses the impairment of the expression of a gene or genes in said plant. In comparison to a plant not manipulated to impair the expression of said gene(s), the plants display improved drought resistance. Also provided are plants and plant products that can be obtained by the method according to the invention.

Claim (Index 1):
A  Solanum lycopersicum, Gossypium hirsutum, Glycine max, Triticum  spp.,  Hordeum vulgare, Avena sativa, Sorghum bicolor, Secale cereale , or  Brassica napus  plant, plant cell, or plant product wherein expression of functional pectinesterase protein is impaired, wherein the functional pectinesterase protein is a protein that when expressed in an  Arabidopsis thaliana  T-DNA insertion line having a disrupted endogenous pectinesterase gene results in a plant with an impaired drought resistance compared to the drought resistance of the  Arabidopsis thaliana  T-DNA insertion line having a disrupted endogenous pectinesterase gene in which the functional pectinesterase protein is not expressed.
