摘要:
Methods and means are provided to increase the oil content of plants, particularly oleaginous plants by preventing feedback inhibition by 18:1-Coenzyme A or 18:1-Acyl Carrier Protein of the acetyl CoA-carboxylase enzyme in cells of these plants in various manners.
摘要:
It is an object of the present invention to provide a delta-5 desaturase-defective gene and uses of the gene and/or the mutant in algal transformation.
摘要:
This invention is intended to be used to search for a transcription factor having novel functions of increasing the weight of an individual plant, increasing the weight of a given tissue per individual plant, or improving the productivity of a given substance per individual plant and to improve such properties in the plant. The weight of an individual plant is increased, the weight of a given tissue per individual plant is increased, the productivity of a given substance per individual plant is improved, or the content of a given substance per given tissue of a plant is increased via expression of a transcription factor that has been modified to suppress transcription accelerating activity.
