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 an IAA2-like (auxin/indoleacetic acid 2 like) polypeptide. The present invention also concerns plants having modulated expression of a nucleic acid encoding IAA2-like polypeptide, which plants have enhanced yield-related traits relative to control plants. The invention also provides constructs comprising IAA2-like-encoding nucleic acids, useful in performing the methods of the invention. The present invention also relates generally to the field of molecular biology and concerns a method for improving various plant growth characteristics by modulating expression in a plant of a nucleic acid encoding a NAC10-like polypeptide. The present invention also concerns plants having modulated expression of a nucleic acid encoding a NAC10-like polypeptide, which plants have improved growth characteristics relative to corresponding wild type plants or other control plants. The invention also provides constructs useful in the methods of the invention.
