Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates generally to the field of molecular biology and concerns a method for enhancing various economically important characteristics in plants. More specifically, the present invention concerns a method for improving yield-related traits, such as enhanced yield and/or enhanced growth, or modified content of storage compounds in plants by modulating expression in a plant of a nucleic acid encoding a GRP (Growth Related Protein) polypeptide. The present invention also concerns plants having modulated expression of a nucleic acid encoding a GRP polypeptide, which plants have improved characterisitics relative to control plants. The invention also provides hitherto unknown GRP-encoding nucleic acids, and constructs comprising the same, useful in performing the methods of the invention.
