  • Publication number: 20250011804
    Abstract: Provided are compositions comprising polynucleotides encoding polypeptides. Also provided are recombinant DNA constructs, plants, plant cells, seed, grain comprising the polynucleotides, and plants, plant cells, seed, grain comprising a genetic modification at a genomic locus encoding a polypeptide. Additionally, various methods of employing the polynucleotides and genetic modifications in plants, such as methods for modulating expression level in a plant and methods for increasing yield of a plant are also provided herein.
    Type: Application
