Abstract
The present invention is directed to a transgenic plant and a method for producing the same. In particular, the present invention is directed to a transgenic plant or a plant cell in which a nucleic acid molecule encoding an m6A demethylase is introduced, wherein said m6A demethylase has the following two domains: i) N-terminal domain (NTD) having the function of AlkB oxidation demethylase; and ii) C-terminal domain (CTD). The present invention is also directed to a method for producing said plant, comprising introducing a nucleic acid molecule encoding an m6A demethylase into a regenerable plant cell, and regenerating a transgenic plant from the regenerable plant cell.

A Taraxacum Kok-saghyz plant mature for harvesting rubber, expressing a protein having an amino acid sequence selected from SEQ ID NO:
- 1-4, wherein the plant produces a yield of rubber about three or more fold of that of the average yield of control plants grown under comparable conditions, wherein the control plants do not express the protein.
A mature cotton plant expressing a protein having an amino acid sequence selected from SEQ ID NO:
- 1-4, wherein the plant contains a yield of seed cotton about four or more fold of that of the average yield of control plants grown under comparable conditions, wherein the control plants do not express the protein.
A preparation of seeds obtained from a plurality of mature cotton plants engineered to express a protein having a sequence selected from SEQ ID NO:
- 1-4,
- wherein the seeds comprise a protein having a sequence selected from SEQ ID NO:
- 1-4 or a nucleic acid encoding a protein having a sequence selected from SEQ ID NO:1-4, and
- wherein the yield of seed cotton from the plurality of cotton plants is about four or more fold of that of the average yield of a comparable plurality of control plants grown under comparable conditions, wherein the control plants do not express the protein.
An alfalfa plant expressing a protein having an amino acid sequence selected from SEQ ID NO:
- 1-4, wherein the stem and leaf biomass of the plant is about two or more fold of that of the average biomass of control plants grown under comparable conditions, wherein the control plants do not express the protein.
