Abstract
The present invention is directed to a method for controlling plant cell growth comprising modulating the level and or catalytic activity of a cell cycle control protein in said plant cell for a time and under conditions sufficient to control cell division. Preferably, the cell cycle control protein is p3.sup.4cdc2 or like molecule and the plant is a monocotyledonous plant or dicotyledonous plant.
