20100122366DEVELOPMENT OF CONTROLLED TOTAL VEGETATIVE GROWTH FOR PREVENTION OF TRANSGENE ESCAPE FROM GENETICALLY MODIFIED PLANTS AND FOR ENHANCING BIOMASS PRODUCTION - Genes can be introduced into plants that confer desirable traits such as, drought and stress tolerance, insect and pest resistance, as well as environmental qualities such as phyto-remediation. However, possibility for transgene escape to wild and non-transformed species raises commercial and ecological concerns. Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for generating plants with total vegetative growth for the reduction, and in some examples prevention of, transgene escape. The same methods and compositions can also be used to increase biomass production in a plant.05-13-2010
