Abstract

See full text

In some embodiments, the present invention provides a method of elevating lipid content in vegetative (non-seed) plant or algal cells, plant tissues, or whole plants by genetically modifying the plant or algae to express a protein or polypeptide associated with lipid metabolism (such as fat-specific protein 27) of animal origin or plant origin. Also provided are genetically-modified plant or algal cells, plant tissues, or whole plants with elevated cellular lipid content, expressing a protein or polypeptide associated with lipid metabolism (such as fat-specific protein 27) of animal (e.g. human) origin or plant origin.
