6 Claims

1. A genetically engineered land plant that expresses a plant protein of Zea nicaraguensis of SEQ ID NO: 7, the genetically engineered land plant comprising a modified gene for the plant protein, wherein:

the modified gene comprises (i) a promoter and (ii) a nucleic acid sequence encoding the plant protein;

the promoter is non-cognate with respect to the nucleic acid sequence;

the modified gene is configured such that transcription of the nucleic acid sequence is initiated from the promoter and results in expression of the plant protein; and

the genetically engineered land plant is an oilseed plant.
