Abstract

The present invention is directed to plant genetic engineering. In particular, it is directed to producing green leaves in maize through inhibition of ethylene. The genes involved in producing this phenotype include 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-Carboxylate (“ACC”) synthase, ACC oxidase, ACC deaminase, ethylene response sensor (“ERS”), ethylene resistant (“ETR”), and ethylene insensitive (“EIN”).
