发明名称 | Repression of AtGLR3.2 increases plant biomass | ||
摘要 | The present invention relates to methods that may be used to improve or modify nutrient sensing, absorption, metabolism, root growth, stomatal conductance, N use efficiency, C and N metabolism, plant biomass production and seed yield. More specifically, this invention is related to the glutamate receptors (GLRs) and their role(s) in nutrient sensing, metabolism, regulation of growth, development, and yield. | ||

主权项 | 1. A method for developing a plant comprising (i) selecting a progenitor plant for which improved biomass production is desired, and (ii) introducing into the plant a nucleic acid molecule that encodes an RNA antisense sufficient to reduce levels of AtGLR3.2 and increase biomass of said plant relative to said progenitor plant. | ||
