摘要：
The present invention relates generally to the field of molecular biology and concerns a method for enhancing various yield-related traits in plants by modulating expression in a plant of a nucleic acid encoding a TCP1 or a TCP2 transcription factor. The present invention also concerns plants having modulated expression of a nucleic acid encoding a TCP1 or TCP2 polypeptide, which plants have enhanced yield-related traits relative to corresponding wild type plants or other control plants. The invention also provides constructs useful in the methods of the invention. In another embodiment, the present invention concerns a method for enhancing yield-related traits in plants by modulating expression in a plant of a nucleic acid encoding an Epsin-like polypeptide, or of a nucleic acid sequence encoding a tRNA delta (2)- isopentenylpyrophosphate transferase (IPPT) polypeptide, and a method for enhancing yield-related traits in plants grown under conditions of suboptimal nutrient availability, comprising modulating expression in a plant of a nucleic acid encoding a SHORT-ROOT (SHR) polypetide.
