METHOD FOR SPEEDING UP PLANT GROWTH AND IMPROVING YIELD BY ALTERING EXPRESSION LEVELS OF KINASES AND PHOSPHATATES

摘要

Transgenic plants having increased growth rate and increase yield are disclosed, and methods for making the same. In one embodiment, the method comprises: transforming a plant or plant cell with a nucleic acid molecule comprising a plant kinase and/or phosphatase gene selected from NG6, NG21, NG24, NG28, and NG32, and over-expressing said kinase and/or phosphatase gene in the plant or plant cell.
