This invention is intended to be used to search for a transcription factor having novel functions of increasing the weight of an individual plant, increasing the weight of a given tissue per individual plant, or improving the productivity of a given substance per individual plant and to improve such properties in the plant. The weight of an individual plant is increased, the weight of a given tissue per individual plant is increased, the productivity of a given substance per individual plant is improved, or the content of a given substance per given tissue of a plant is increased via expression of a transcription factor that has been modified to suppress transcription accelerating activity. La présente invention est conçue pour servir à chercher un facteur de transcription ayant de nouvelles fonctions permettant daugmenter le poids dune plante individuelle, daugmenter le poids dun tissu donné dune plante individuelle ou daméliorer la productivité dune substance donnée dune plante individuelle et daméliorer de telles propriétés dans la plante. Le poids dune plante individuelle est augmenté, le poids dun tissu dune plante individuelle est augmenté, la productivité dune substance donnée dune plante individuelle est améliorée ou le contenu dune substance donnée dun tissu donné dune plante est augmenté par le biais de lexpression dun facteur de transcription qui a été modifié pour supprimer lactivité daccélération de la transcription.
