PLANTS HAVING ENHANCED YIELD-RELATED TRAITS AND METHOD FOR MAKING THE SAME

摘要

The present invention relates 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 yield-related traits in plants by modulating expression in a plant of a nucleic acid encoding a Protein of Interest (POI) polypeptide. The present invention also concerns plants having modulated expression of a nucleic acid encoding a POI polypeptide, which plants have enhanced yield-related traits as compared with control plants. The invention also provides novel POI-encoding nucleic acids and constructs comprising the same, useful in performing the method of the invention.
