摘要

The present invention relates generally to the field of molecular biology and concerns a method for enhancing various economically important yield-related traits in plants. More specifically, the present invention concerns a method for enhancing yield-related traits in plants by modulating expression in a plant of a nucleic acid encoding a DOF-C2 (DNA-binding with one finger, subgroup C2) domain transcription factor polypeptide or a MYB7 polypeptide. The present invention also concerns plants having modulated expression of a nucleic acid encoding an a DOF-C2 domain transcription factor polypeptide or a MYB7 polypeptide, which plants have enhanced yield-related traits relative to control plants. The invention also provides constructs comprising the DOF-C2 domain transcription factor polypeptide or the MYB7 polypeptide, useful in performing the methods of the invention.
