Increased efficiency in Plants by Modulation of Transcription Factor of Corn silky1 CAA Mads

摘要

Compositions and methods are provided for Modulating The Flower Organ Development, Leaf formation, apical dominance, phototropism, Fruit Development, initiation of Roots, and to increase the yield in a Plant. The compositions include a sequence of silky1.The present compositions comprise amino acid sequences and nucleotide sequences of SEQ ID nos. selected: 1 and 2 so sorno variants and Fragments.Provided are nucleotide sequences that Encode the silky1 Sequences in a DNA construct for expression in a plant of interest to modulate the level of silky1 sequence in a plant or Plant part. The Methods comprise introducing into a plant or Plant Part A heterologous polynucleotide comprising a sequence of silky1 of this.You can increase or decrease the level of silky1 polypeptide. This method can be used to increase the yield in plants; in one embodiment, the method is used to increase Grain yield in Cereals.
