Abstract
A method of increasing expression of an heterologous protein of interest in a plant or portion of the plant is provided. The method comprises treating the plant or portion of the plant with a jasmonate-pathway activator, and introducing a nucleotide sequence operably linked to a regulatory region derived from a DNA plant virus and encoding the heterologous protein of interest into the plant or portion of the plant. Alternatively, the plant or plant portion may comprise the nucleic acid and encoding the heterologous protein of interest, and the plant or portion of the plant is treated with the jasmonate pathway activator. The treated plant is incubated under conditions to permit expression of the nucleotide sequence encoding the heterologous protein of interest.
