given that you haven't shown what your input looks like, it's hard to
guess what that means.


given that you have

<xsl:template match="/">
    <Top>
        <PrimeConcept><xsl:apply-templates select="Top/TopNode" 
mode="top"/></PrimeConcept>
    </Top>
</xsl:template>


isn't it clear that everything is going to come as a child of
PrimeConcept?

If you want

<PrimeConcept id='10180'>Car</PrimeConcept>
<SubConcepts>
  <SubConcept id='10298'>Toyota</SubConcept>
</SubConcepts>

Then you might need something

<xsl:template match="/">
    <Top>
        <PrimeConcept><xsl:apply-templates select="something"mode="top"/></PrimeConcept>
        <SubConcept><xsl:apply-templates select="something else "mode="somethingelse"/></SubConcept>
    </Top>
</xsl:template>

or you might not.

but only you know what your input looks like or what transformation you
are trying to do.
