The invention relates to plant transcription factor polypeptides,
polynucleotides that encode them, homologs from a variety of plant
species, and methods of using the polynucleotides and polypeptides to
produce transgenic plants having advantageous properties, including
increased soluble solids, lycopene, and improved plant volume or yield,
as compared to wild-type or control plants. The invention also pertains
to expression systems that may be used to regulate these transcription
factor polynucleotides, providing constitutive, transient, inducible and
tissue-specific regulation.
