May 31, 2007
Appl. No.:
12/303570
Inventors:
Stefan Henkes - Potsdam, DE
Christian Dammann - Durham NC, US
Assignee:
BASF Plant Science GmbH
International Classification:
C12N 15/82
A01H 5/00
US Classification:
800290, 800298, 800306, 800312, 800314, 8003172, 800320, 8003201, 8003202, 8003203, 800322, 435419, 4353201
Abstract:
The present invention relates generally to the field of molecular biology and concerns a method for improving plant growth characteristics. More specifically, the present invention concerns a method for improving plant growth characteristics by modulating expression in a plant of a plant nucleic acid encoding a cyclin dependent kinase (CDK) and/or by modulating activity in a plant of a plant CDK protein, which CDK protein comprises different motifs or which CDK nucleic acid encodes such protein. The present invention also concerns plants having modulated expression of a plant CDK nucleic acid and/or modulated activity of a plant CDK protein, which CDK protein comprises different sequence motifs or which nucleic acid encodes such protein and which plants have improved growth characteristics relative to corresponding wild type plants. The invention additionally relates to specific nucleic acid sequences encoding for the aforementioned proteins having the aforementioned plant growth improving activity, nucleic acid constructs, vectors and plants containing said nucleic acid sequences.

Abstract:
The present invention relates generally to the field of molecular biology and concerns a method for increasing plant yield relative to suitable control plants. More specifically, the present invention concerns a method for increasing plant yield comprising increasing expression in a plant of a nucleic acid encoding a Dof (DNA-binding with one finger) domain transcription factor polypeptide. The present invention also concerns plants having increased expression of a nucleic acid encoding a Dof domain transcription factor polypeptide, which plants have increased yield relative to suitable control plants. The invention also provides constructs useful in the methods of the invention.
