摘要:
The present invention relates to the fields of agriculture, plant breeding or genetic engineering for plants with increased yield, crop forecasting and crop management. In particular, the methods herein describe novel methods of predicting a plant's yield through the measurement of specific metabolites either individually or in combination with one another in a specific plant reproductive tissue. The plant predictive methods described herein may be used to predict yield of plant populations as well as allow for more efficient crop management practices (e.g. amount and timing of chemical applications or amount of irrigation water applied to a field).

Compositions and methods for targeting polypeptides to plastids are provided. Compositions comprise plastid transit peptides as well as nucleotide sequences encoding such transit peptides and variants thereof. Compositions further comprise DNA constructs comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding the plastid transit peptide operably linked to a nucleotide sequence encoding a polypeptide of interest. These DNA constructs find use in expression and targeting of the polypeptide of interest to a plastid. Compositions also comprise expression cassettes, vectors, transformed plants, transformed plant cells, and stably transformed plant seeds wherein a polypeptide of interest is targeted to a plastid by the plastid targeting peptide of the invention.
摘要:
A novel transgenic corn event designated MZDT09Y is disclosed. The invention relates to nucleic acids that are unique to event MZDT09Y and to methods of detecting the presence of event MZDT09Y based on DNA sequences of the recombinant constructs inserted into the corn genome that resulted in the MZDT09Y event and of genomic sequences flanking the insertion site. The invention further relates to corn plants comprising the transgenic genotype of event MZDT09Y and to methods for producing a corn plant by crossing a corn plant comprising the MZDT09Y genotype with itself or another corn variety. Seeds of corn plants comprising the MZDT09Y genotype are also objects of the invention.

The present invention relates generally to the field of molecular biology and regards various polynucleotides, polypeptides and methods that may be employed to enhance yield in transgenic plants. Specifically the transgenic plants may exhibit any one of the traits consisting of increased yield, increased tolerance to abiotic stress, increased cell growth and increased nutrient use efficiency.
