Patent

CA 2615837

Described herein are inventions in the field of genetic engineering of plants, including combinations of nucleic acid molecules encoding LMPs to improve agronomic, horticultural, and quality traits. This invention relates generally to the combination of nucleic acid sequences encoding proteins that are related to the presence of seed storage compounds in plants. More specifically, the present invention relates to LMP nucleic acid sequences encoding lipid metabolism proteins (LMP) and the use of these combinations of these sequences, their order and direction in the combination, and the regulatory elements used to control expression and transcript termination in these combinations in transgenic plants. In particular, the invention is directed to methods for manipulating fatty acid-related compounds and for increasing oil level and altering the fatty acid composition in plants and seeds. The invention further relates to methods of using these novel combinations of polypeptides to stimulate plant growth and/or to increase yield and/or composition of seed storage compounds.

L'invention concerne le domaine de la manipulation génétique de végétaux, notamment des combinaisons de molécules d'acides nucléiques codant LMP aux fins d'amélioration des caractères agronomiques, horticole et qualitatif. L'invention concerne, d'une manière générale, la combinaison de séquences d'acides nucléiques codant des protéines relatives à la présence de composés de stockage de semences dans des végétaux. Plus précisément, l'invention concerne des séquences d'acides nucléiques de LMP codant les protéines du métabolisme lipidique (LMP) et l'utilisation de ces combinaison de ces séquences, l'ordre et la direction de celles-ci dans la combinaison et les éléments réglementaires utilisés pour commander la terminaison de l'expression et de la transcription dans ces combinaisons dans des végétaux transgéniques. Plus précisément, l'invention concerne des procédés permettant de manipuler des composés relatifs aux acides gras et d'augmenter le niveau d'huile et de modifier la composition d'acides gras dans des végétaux et des semences. L'invention concerne également des procédés d'utilisation de ces combinaisons de polypeptides aux fins de stimulation de la croissance des végétaux et/ou d'augmentation de la production et/ou de la composition des composés de stockages de semences.
