Millet and tobacco were transformed with the thrt ' e plant expression vectors . our observations with transgenic plants showed that the pf40 gene affected the growth of lateral shoots developing in the basipetal pattern early after floral transition . analysisd the transgenic plants showed the pf40 gene can reduced the apical dominance of both millet and tobacco 测量结果表明pf40基因过量表达的转基因谷子生长素的含量降低为对照的0 . 6 0 . 8倍,而细胞分裂素的含量较对照约升高0 . 2 0 . 35倍,生长素与细胞分裂素的比值在转基因植物中改变明显,降低到对照的一半。
