Abstract

The present invention provides methods and compositions for making and using transgenic plants that exhibit increased yield compared to wild-type plants. Methods of the invention comprise increasing expression of a COX VIIa subunit polypeptide in plants, particularly in monocots. In some embodiments, at least one nucleotide construct comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding the COX VIIa subunit protein or a biologically active fragment or variant thereof is introduced into a plant. The invention further provides methods for producing plants with increased yield, such as increased total seed number, increased total seed weight, increased number of seeds filled, increased harvest index, or any combination thereof, which is desirable in commercial crops, including those used for seed production. A Zm COX VIIa promoter and biologically active fragments or variants thereof are also provided. The Zm COX VIIa promoter and as well as fragments and variants thereof find use in driving expression of polynucleotides of interest in a plant.
