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 CRC-related (Crabs Claw) polypeptide. The present invention also concerns plants having modulated expression of a nucleic acid encoding such a CRC-related protein, which plants have enhanced yield-related relative to control plants. The invention also provides constructs useful in the methods of the invention.
