MODIFIED PLANTS COMPRISING A POLYNUCLEOTIDE COMPRISING A NON-COGNATE PROMOTER OPERABLY LINKED TO A CODING SEQUENCE THAT ENCODES A TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR

Abstract:

A modified plant is provided. The modified plant includes a polynucleotide including a promoter operably linked to a coding sequence. The coding sequence encodes a transcription factor that has at least 30% sequence identity to one or more of SEQ ID NOs: 27, 204, 10, 19, 1-9, 11-18, 20-26, 28-203, 205, 237, or 242-310. The promoter is non-cognate with respect to the coding sequence. Also provided is a method for producing a modified plant having increased seed yield and/or oil content in comparison to a reference plant by transformation. Also provided is a method for producing a modified plant having increased seed yield and/or oil content in comparison to a reference plant by editing.
