  • Publication number: 20040025202
    Abstract: Polynucleotides that encode proteins associated with oil content in plants are useful in constructs to make transgenic plants, e.g., maize or soybean, with desirable oil content phenotype and progeny of any generation derived from the fertile transgenic plants. Markers associated with oil content QTL are useful in breeding for plants with desired oil content.
