Abstract
The present invention relates to a method of enhancing growth in plants. Transgenic plants or transgenic plant seeds transformed with a DNA molecule encoding a hypersensitive response elicitor polypeptide or protein are grown and, optionally, the transgenic plants or plants resulting from the transgenic plant seeds further have the hypersensitive response elicitor polypeptide or protein applied to them.
