Patent number: 10072271Abstract: Compositions and methods for increasing plant growth and yield are provided. Compositions comprise the high yield gene TEL, promoters and enhancers to increase the expression of a TEL gene in a plant of interest. By enhancing the expression of at least one TEL gene in a plant, an improvement in plant growth and yield is achieved, resulting in an increase in crop yield in a field planted with such plants. A plant of interest may be transformed with a DNA construct comprising a promoter that is capable of driving expression in the plant operably linked to a coding sequence for a TEL gene. The DNA construct may comprise at least on enhancer that acts to increase expression of the TEL coding sequence. A promoter or enhancer can be inserted into the genome of the plant of interest at a site that increases the expression of the endogenous TEL coding sequence in the plant.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2012Date of Patent: September 11, 2018Assignee: HANGZHOU RUIFENG BIOTECHNOLOGY LIMITED INC.Inventors: Zhicheng Shen, Xianwen Zhang, Dongfang Wang, Jianhua Gao
