摘要:
The present disclosure provides modified, transgenic, or genome edited/mutated corn plants that are semi-dwarf and have one or more improved ear traits relative to a control plant, such as increase in ear diameter, single kernel weight, ear fresh weight, ear area, ear volume, ear length, number of kernels per ear, and yield. The modified, transgenic, or genome edited/mutated corn plants comprise a transgene encoding one or more MADS-box polypeptides and have a reduced expression of one or more GA20 or GA3 oxidase genes. Also provided are methods for producing the modified, transgenic, or genome edited/mutated corn plants.

The present disclosure provides modified, transgenic, or genome edited/mutated corn plants that are semi-dwarf and have one or more improved ear traits relative to a control plant, such as increase in ear area, increased single kernel weight, increased ear fresh weight, increased number of florets, and mitigated flowering delay. The modified, transgenic, or genome edited/mutated corn plants comprise a transgene encoding one or more CONSTANS (CO) or CONSTANS-like (COL) polypeptide and have a reduced expression of one or more GA20 or GA3 oxidase genes. Also provided are methods for producing the modified, transgenic, or genome edited/mutated corn plants.
摘要:
The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for altering gibberellin (GA) content in corn or other cereal plants. Methods and compositions are also provided for altering the expression of genes related to gibberellin biosynthesis through editing of a specific GA20 oxidase gene or locus to produce a genomic deletion or disruption that brings an antisense sequence of the GA20 oxidase gene under the control of a neighboring SAMT gene promoter. Modified plant cells and plants having a dominant allele reducing the expression or activity of one or more GA oxidase genes are further provided comprising reduced gibberellin levels and improved characteristics, such as reduced plant height and increased lodging resistance, but without off-types.
摘要:
The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for the editing or mutating of specific subtypes of GA20 oxidase genes and specific zygosity combinations of those edits or mutations. Modified plants, and plant parts and cells thereof, having mutations reducing the expression or activity of GA20 oxidase genes are further provided with improved characteristics, such as reduced plant height and increased lodging resistance, but without off-types. Methods are further provided for making modified plants, and plant parts and cells thereof, having one or more mutations in specific subtypes of GA20 oxidase genes.
摘要:
The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for altering gibberellin (GA) content in corn or other cereal plants. Methods and compositions are also provided for altering the expression of genes related to gibberellin biosynthesis through suppression, mutagenesis and/or editing of specific subtypes of GA20 or GA3 oxidase genes. Modified plant cells and plants having a suppression element or mutation reducing the expression or activity of a GA oxidase gene are further provided comprising reduced gibberellin levels and improved characteristics, such as reduced plant height and increased lodging resistance, but without off-types.
摘要:
The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for altering auxin accumulation in corn or other cereal plants. Methods and compositions are also provided for altering the expression of genes related to auxin efflux through editing of a Brachytic2 (br2) gene to introduce an antisense sequence or segment or a deletion or premature stop codon into the gene. Modified plant cells and plants having a dominant or semi-dominant allele reducing the expression or activity of a br2 gene product are further provided comprising improved characteristics, such as reduced plant height and increased lodging resistance, but without off-types in the plant.
摘要:
The present disclosure provides modified, transgenic, or genome edited/mutated corn plants that are semi-dwarf and have one or more improved ear traits relative to a control plant, such as increase in ear diameter, ear fresh weight, and single kernel weight, and increased yield. The modified, transgenic, or genome edited/mutated corn plants comprise a transgene encoding one or more molybdenum cofactor (Moco) biosynthesis polypeptides and have a reduced expression of one or more GA20 or GA3 oxidase genes. Also provided are methods for producing the modified, transgenic, or genome edited/mutated corn plants.

The present disclosure provides modified, transgenic, or genome edited/mutated corn plants that are semi-dwarf and have one or more improved ear traits relative to a control plant, such as increase in ear area, ear diameter, ear length, green leaf number below ear, yield, single kernel weight, and/or ear fresh weight, and decrease in ear tip void. The modified, transgenic, or genome edited/mutated corn plants comprise a transgene encoding one or more proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) polypeptide and have a reduced expression of one or more GA20 or GA3 oxidase genes. Also provided are methods for producing the modified, transgenic, or genome edited/mutated corn plants.
