Claims
- 1. A substantially purified nucleic acid molecule encoding a nitrite reductase of SEQ ID NO:11926.
- 2. A recombinant DNA construct for expression of a nitrite reductase gene in a plant cell, wherein said construct comprises a promoter functional in a plant cell operatively linked to a nucleic acid molecule encoding a nitrite reductase protein of at least 70 percent sequence identity to SEQ ID NO:11926 over the entire length of said protein.
- 3. The recombinant DNA construct of claim 2, wherein said nucleic acid molecule encodes a nitrite reductase protein of at least 90 percent sequence identity to SEQ ID NO:11926 over the entire length of said protein.
- 4. The recombinant DNA construct of claim 2, wherein said nucleic acid molecule encodes a nitrite reductase of SEQ ID NO:11926.
- 5. A plant cell comprising a recombinant DNA construct of claim 2.
