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 bHLH9 (basic-Helix-Loop-Helix group 9) polypeptide. The present invention also concerns plants having modulated expression of a nucleic acid encoding a bHLH9 polypeptide, which plants have enhanced yield-related traits relative to control plants. The invention also provides hitherto unknown BHLH9-encoding nucleic acids and constructs comprising the same, useful in performing the methods of the invention.
