Novel crop grain filling genes (GIF1) and the applications thereof are presented in the invention. The GIF1 genes can be applied to control grain filling, enhance crop yield or quality, or improve disease resistance or storage stability of crop grains. A method for improving crops is also presented in the invention. The GIF1 genes shows valuable potentials in controlling crop yield, quality, storage, and resistance to diseases.

Crop grain filling gene (GIF1) and the applications thereof

Provided are a crop height regulatory gene from, expression regulatory sequences thereof and uses thereof. The crop regulatory gene can be used to regulate the plant height, volume, tiller, yield, flower organ size, or seed size of crops.
