methods for increasing longevity, organ size and / or seed size, to produce a plant with increased longevity, organ size and / or seed size, and to prolong the growth period in a plant
This invention relates to the identification of a regulator protein (termed DA) which controls the size of plant seeds and organs in Arabidopsis and other plants. Manipulation of DA protein expression may useful, for example, in improving crop yield and increasing plant biomass.
