  • TRANSGENIC PLANTS WITH INCREASED PHOTOSYNTHESIS EFFICIENCY AND GROWTH
    Publication number: 20230183731
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a transgenic plant comprising one or more nucleotide sequences encoding polypeptides selected from photosystem II subunit S (PsbS), zeaxanthin epoxidase (ZEP), and violaxanthin de-epoxidase (VDE), operably linked to at least one expression control sequence. Expression vectors for making transgenic plants, and methods for increasing biomass production and/or carbon fixation and/or growth in a plant comprising increasing expression of at least one of PsbS, ZEP and VDE polypeptides are also provided.
    Type: Application
    Filed: November 18, 2022
    Publication date: June 15, 2023
    Inventors: Stephen P. Long, Johannes Kromdijk, Katarzyna Glowacka, Krishna K. Niyogi, Laurie Beth Leonelli, Stephane T. Gabilly

  • METHOD TO INCREASE CROP PLANT FOLIAGE PRODUCTIVITY
    Publication number: 20190166774
    Abstract: Methods and compositions are disclosed to improve biomass accumulation in Truncated Light-harvesting Antenna (TLA) crop plant canopies as compared to biomass accumulation measured in wild-type counterparts grown under the same high canopy-density, agronomic, and ambient sunlight conditions.
