Abstract

A fiber-producing plant comprising in its genome a heterologous genetic construct is disclosed. This genetic construct comprises a fiber-specific promoter and a coding sequence encoding a plant peroxidase. Preferably, the coding sequence is for cotton peroxidase. Seeds of the plant containing this genetic construct and plant cells containing this construct are also disclosed.
