Abstract
Methods comprising DNA constructs and polynucleotides of functional transcription factors for improving photosynthetic capacity, biomass and/or grain yield and stress tolerance in various crop and model plants, dicots and monocots with the C3 or C4 photosynthetic pathways are described herein.
Claims20
A method for producing a genetically modified plant or plant cell having an increased carbon flow, the method comprising:
- a) transforming one or more host plants or plant cells with a vector comprising a nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide having at least 60% identity to SEQ ID NO:
- 4 operably linked to a promoter;
- and
- (b) selecting one or more transformed plants or plant cells for increased carbon flow by selecting for one or more of increased biomass yield, increased starch yield, increased glucose content, or increased sucrose content as compared to a control plant lacking the vector.
