Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The invention relates to the isolation and characterization of a maize gene, RAMOSA3 (RA3), responsible for meristem development and inflorescence development including branching. The gene, gene product, and regulatory regions may be used to manipulate branching, meristem growth, inflorescence development and arrangement, and ultimately to improve yield of plants. The invention includes the gene and protein product as well as the use of the same for temporal and spatial expression in transgenic plants to alter plant morphology and affect yield in plants. The invention also includes the gene and protein product for SISTER OF RAMOSA3 (SRA).
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A recombinant DNA construct comprising a polynucleotide operably linked to a heterologous promoter that is functional in a plant, wherein the polynucleotide comprises: (a) a nucleic acid sequence encoding a polypeptide having trehalose-6-phosphate phosphatase activity, wherein the polypeptide has an amino acid sequence of at least 90% sequence identity, based on the Clustal V method of alignment, when compared to SEQ ID NO:19, 49, 68 or 69; or (b) a…
