TOPICAL APPLICATION OF POLYNUCLEOTIDE MOLECULES FOR IMPROVING YIELD TRAITS OF PLANTS
A composition including: (i) a ds RNA molecule of at least 18 contiguous nucleotides that are essentially identical or essentially complementary to a plant gene or a transcript of said plant gene; and (ii) a transfer agent that conditions a surface of a plant to permeation by the ds RNA molecule int...

Summary: | A composition including: (i) a ds RNA molecule of at least 18 contiguous nucleotides that are essentially identical or essentially complementary to a plant gene or a transcript of said plant gene; and (ii) a transfer agent that conditions a surface of a plant to permeation by the ds RNA molecule into cells of the plant; wherein permeation of the ds RNA molecule into cells of the plant causes a transient reduction in the expression of the gene and wherein the transient reduction in the expression of the gene causes a change in a yield-associated trait of the plant. |
