1. A method of producing a plant, said method comprising
growing a plant cell comprising an exogenous nucleic acid, said exogenous nucleic acid comprising a regulatory region operably linked to a nucleotide sequence, wherein said nucleotide sequences encodes a polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence having 95 percent or greater sequence identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1554, or wherein said nucleotide sequence comprises a polynucleotide sequence having 95 percent or greater sequence identity to the polynucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO:1553;
selecting a plant produced from said plant cell for having an increased level of low-nitrogen tolerance as compared to the corresponding level of low-nitrogen tolerance of a control plant that does not comprise said nucleic acid.
