Abstract

The invention relates to the genetic modification of plants, particularly to the expression of P-glycoprotein genes in transformed plants. Nucleotide sequences for the Br2 gene encoding a P-glycoprotein of maize and methods for their use are provided. The sequences find use in modifying the growth of plants.
