Gene targets for nitrogen fixation targeting for improving plant traits

Abstract

Methods and systems are provided for generating and utilizing a genetically engineered bacterium comprising a modification in glnD, wherein said modification is selected from the group consisting of: deletion of the entire gene, deletion of substantially the entire gene, deletion of an ACT domain, deletion of more than 50% of an ACT domain, deactivation of an ACT domain, and deactivation of an UTase domain.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
