Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the field of molecular biology and concerns a method for enhancing various economically important yield-related traits in plants. More specifically, the present invention concerns a method for enhancing yield-related traits in plants by modulating expression in a plant of a nucleic acid encoding an DUF642 (Protein containing a Domain of Unknown Function) polypeptide, or an epimerase-related like polypeptide, or a Phospholipase/carboxylesterase (PLPCase) polypeptide. The present invention also concerns plants having modulated expression of a nucleic acid encoding a DUF642 polypeptide, or an epimerase-related like polypeptide, or a PLPCase polypeptide, which plants have enhanced yield-related traits relative to control plants. The invention also provides hitherto unknown POI-encoding nucleic acids DUF642-encoding nucleic acids, or epimerase-related like polypeptides, or PLPCase-encoding nucleic acids, and constructs comprising the same, useful in performing the methods of the invention.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of increasing resistance against fungal pathogens of the family Phacosporaceae in transgenic plants and/or plant cells. In these plants, the ethylene signaling pathway and/or activity of the ethylene signaling compounds is changed. This is achieved by priming the ethylene signaling pathway in these plants in comparison to wild type plants and/or wild type plant cells. Depending on the activating or inhibitory function of a particular signaling compound overexpression or knock-down of the cognate gene might be used.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of increasing resistance against fungal pathogens of the family Phacosporaceae in plants and/or plant cells. This is achieved by increasing the expression of an ACD protein or fragment thereof in a plant, plant part and/or plant cell in comparison to wild type plants, wild type plant parts and/or wild type plant cells. Furthermore, the invention relates to transgenic plants, plant parts, and/or plant cells having an increased resistance against fungal pathogens, in particular, pathogens of the family Phacopsoraceae, and to recombinant expression vectors comprising a sequence that is identical or homologous to a sequence encoding an ACD protein.
