ABSTRACT:
Methods are provided for modulating seed oil content in plants. Specifically, the invention relates to methods of increasing seed oil content in plants by reducing or eliminating the expression of homeodomain glabara2 (HDGL2) in a plant of interest, or changing seed composition by increasing expression of HDGL2 in a plant. Seeds and plants produced by the present methods are also provided.
