ABSTRACT:
In order to obtain a crop which provides an increased storage lipid content in its seed, the activity of cytosolic pyruvate kinase of a seed is substantially lowered as compared with the endogenous activity of pyruvate kinase in the plant seed. Preferably, the activity of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase is substantially lowered as compared with the endogenous activity of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase in the seed. Thus the storage lipid content in the plant seed is increased.
