Abstract: The present invention relates to isolated nucleic acid molecules and their corresponding encoded polypeptides able confer the trait of modulated plant size, vegetative growth, organ number, plant architecture, sterility or seedling lethality in plants. The present invention further relates to the use of these nucleic acid molecules and polypeptides in making transgenic plants, plant cells, plant materials or seeds of a plant having such modulated growth or phenotype characteristics that are altered with respect to wild type plants grown under similar conditions.

Abstract: A batch of seed materials is film-coated with a gas- and water-permeable, thin, adherent, uniform non-phytotoxic continuous surface film of a polymeric film-former, by (a) establishing and continuously maintaining a unit compact volume of moisture-containing viable seed materials in a state of continuous agitation and (b) continuously spraying and coating this unit compact volume of seed materials with an adjusted essentially steady predetermined flow rate of a liquid solution or suspension of a polymeric film-former, while simultaneously (i) continuously positively drying the coated seed materials by continuously directing a predetermined flow rate of a gaseous feedstream thereagainst that is at a controlled temperature less than that would adversely affect the viability thereof, (ii) continuously monitoring the temperature within the unit compact volume of seed materials in a state of continuous agitation and (iii) continuously maintaining a moisture content in the final product coated seed materials essent
