Abstract
Isolated polynucleotides and polypeptides, and recombinant DNA constructs, suppression DNA constructs and CRISPR/Cas9 DNA constructs are provided. Compositions (such as plants or seeds) with modified expression or activity of the isolated polypeptides are obtained by transforming the regenerable plant cell with a suppression DNA construct or CRISPR/Cas construct. The plants with improving drought tolerance are obtained by decreasing the expression or activity of the isolated polynucleotide.
