Claim 14:
15. A process for feeding an animal, the process comprising providing transgenic vegetative plant parts from a transgenic Sorghum species plant or a transgenic Zea mays plant to the animal, the vegetative plant parts being transgenic for at least (a) a first exogenous polynucleotide which encodes a plant Wrinkled 1 (WRI1) polypeptide operably linked to a heterologous promoter which is effective to direct expression of the first exogenous polynucleotide in the Sorghum species or Zea mays vegetative plant parts and increase the level of the WRI1 polypeptide relative to a corresponding wild type plant or part thereof, and (b) a second exogenous polynucleotide which encodes a plant diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) polypeptide operably linked to a heterologous promoter which is effective to direct expression of the second exogenous polynucleotide in the transgenic Sorghum species plant or transgenic Zea mays vegetative plant parts and increase the level of the DGAT polypeptide relative to a corresponding wild type plant or part thereof, whereby the transgenic vegetative plant parts comprise a total fatty acid (TFA) content which comprises fatty acids esterified in the form of triacylglycerols (TAG) and fatty acids in the form of lipids other than TAG, wherein the transgenic vegetative plant parts comprise a TFA content of between 6% and 20% (w/w dry weight) and a TAG/TFA Quotient (TTQ) of between 0.01 and 0.60.
