  • POLYNUCLEOTIDES AND POLYPEPTIDES INVOLVED IN PLANT FIBER DEVELOPMENT AND METHODS OF USING SAME
    Publication number: 20210054396
    Abstract: Isolated polynucleotides are provided. Each of the isolated polynucleotides comprise a nucleic acid sequence encoding a polypeptide having an amino acid sequence at least 80% homologous to SEQ ID NOs:130-258 and 536-791, wherein the polypeptide is capable of regulating cotton fiber development. Also provided are methods of using such polynucleotides for improving fiber quality and/or yield of a fiber producing plant, as well as methods of using such polynucleotides for producing plants having increased biomass/vigor/yield.
    Type: Application
    Filed: November 4, 2020
    Publication date: February 25, 2021
    Applicant: Evogene Ltd.
    Inventors: Sharon AYAL, Hagai KARCHI, Evgenia GOLD, Laura BEKERMAN
