Zusammenfassung:Methods for Increasing Plant Growth This invention relates to methods for increasing growth and biomass accumulation in woody perennial plants, in particular in trees and other forestry crops, by increasing sucrose-phosphate synthase (SPS) activity in the plant, for example, by expression of a heterologous nucleic acid encoding an SPS polypeptide. Cette invention concerne des procédés visant à augmenter la croissance des plantes et l'accumulation de biomasse dans des plantes ligneuses vivaces, en particulier les arbres et autres cultures forestières, en augmentant l'activité de saccharose phosphate synthase (SPS) dans la plante, par exemple, par expression d'un acide nucléique hétérologue codant un polypeptide SPS.
