Title: Grasses with enhanced starch content

Abstract

Methods and compositions for the production of monocot plants with increased starch content in stems are provided. In accordance with the invention, novel promoters and regulatory elements with specific temporal and spatial expression patterns are disclosed together with methods for the production of plants having desirable stem composition at harvest.
