a presente invenção descreve um método para aceleração do crescimento vegetal por meio do silenciamento do gene della, bem como as plantas transgênicas obtidas a partir do método descrito, mais especificamente cana-de-açúcar. o referido gene della é responsável pelo controle do desenvolvimento vegetal, logo, as canas-de-açúcar que compreendem este gene silenciado ou com expressão reduzida apresentam desenvolvimento mais rápido sem que os níveis de sacarose sejam comprometidos. This invention describes a method for accelerating plant growth through silencing of DELLA gene, as well as the transgenic plants obtained from the method described, particularly sugarcane. Said DELLA gene is responsible for the control of plant development, and therefore, the sugarcane that comprises this gene silenced or with reduced expression feature a faster development without compromised sucrose levels.
