| 20100064386 | PLANTS HAVING ENHANCED YIELD-RELATED TRAITS AND A METHOD FOR MAKING THE SAME - The present invention relates generally to the field of molecular biology and concerns a method for enhancing various economically important yield-related traits in plants. More specifically, the present invention concerns a method for enhancing yield-related traits in plants by modulating expression in a plant of a nucleic acid encoding a Harpin-associated Factor G polypeptide (hereinafter termed HpaG”). The present invention also concerns plants having modulated expression of a nucleic acid encoding an HpaG polypeptide, which plants have enhanced yield-related traits relative to control plants. The invention also provides constructs comprising HpaG-encoding nucleic acids, useful in performing the methods of the invention. The present invention also provides a method for enhancing yield-related traits in plants relative to control plants, by modulating (preferably increasing) expression in a plant of a nucleic acid sequence encoding a SWITCH 2/SUCROSE NON-FERMENTING 2 (SWI2/SNF2) polypeptide. The present invention also concerns plants having modulated expression of a nucleic acid sequence encoding a SWI2/SNF2 polypeptide, which in plants have enhanced yield-related traits relative to control plants. The invention also provides constructs useful in performing the methods of the invention. | 03-11-2010 |
| 20100269215 | Tfla gene which can degrade toxoflavin and its chemical derivatives and transgenic organisms expressing tfla gene - An expression cassette of selection marker for plant transformation includes the following sequences that are operably linked in a 5′ to 3′ direction: (i) a promoter sequence; (ii) a coding sequence for an enzyme which degrades toxoflavin; and (iii) a 3′-untranslated terminator sequence. A method of producing a transgenic plant using the above-describe expression cassette includes (i) transforming plant cells with a recombinant vector that includes the above-described expression cassette to produce transgenic plant cells; (ii) proliferating said transgenic plant cells in a media comprising toxoflavin to produce selected transgenic plant cells; and (iii) growing a transgenic plant from said selected transgenic plant cells. | 10-21-2010 |
| 20110023188 | PLANTS HAVING ENHANCED YIELD-RELATED TRAITS AND A METHOD FOR MAKING THE SAME - The present invention relates generally to the field of molecular biology and concerns a method for enhancing yield-related traits in plants by modulating expression in a plant of a nucleic acid encoding a yield increasing polypeptide selected from the group consisting of: phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC), Class III U-Box protein and PQQC protein. The present invention also concerns plants having modulated expression of a nucleic acid encoding yield increasing polypeptide selected from the group consisting of: phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC), Class III U-Box protein and PQQC protein, which plants have enhanced yield-related traits relative to corresponding wild type plants or other control plants. The invention also provides constructs useful in the methods of the invention. | 01-27-2011 |
