<p>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 one or more yield-related traits in plants by modulating expression in a plant of a nucleic acid encoding a HvRAF-like (Hordeum vulgare "RAF-like protein family") polypeptide. The present invention also concerns plants having modulated expression of a nucleic acid encoding a HvRAF-like polypeptide, which plants have one or more enhanced yield-related traits relative to control plants. The invention also provides hitherto unknown HvRAF-like-encoding nucleic acids, and constructs comprising the same, useful in performing the methods of the invention.</p> |
