Abstract
The present invention relates to methods of increasing the levels of at least one sugar in developing seeds in a plant, with the methods comprising inserting an exogenous nucleic acid, which codes for at least one sugar transporter protein (SWEET protein), into a plant cell to create a transgenic plant cell, and subjecting the transgenic plant cell to conditions that promote expression of the at least one SWEET protein during seed development. The methods results in transgenic plant seeds, and transgenic plants that produce seed, where the levels of at least one sugar are increased as compared to seeds from non-transgenic plants of the same species grown under the same conditions.
