| Application No. | Application Title | Issue Date |
| 20050081258 | Short fragment homologous recombination to effect targeted genetic alterations in plants The invention concerns the application of short fragment homologous recombination (SFHR) to plant cells. In particular, the invention concerns the type of SFHR in which the short fragment is a single stranded nucleic acid preparation of one strand that is substantially ... | 04/14/2005 |
| 20050081259 | Herbicide tolerance achieved through plastid transformation The present invention provides novel DNA sequences coding for protoporphyrinogen oxidase (protox) enzymes from soybean, wheat, cotton, sugar beet, oilseed rape, rice, sorghum, and sugar cane. In addition, the present invention teaches modified forms of protox enzymes th... | 04/14/2005 |
| 20050081260 | Plant genes encoding pantothenate synthetase This invention relates to isolated nucleic acid fragments encoding pantothenate synthetases. The invention also relates to the construction of chimeric genes encoding all or a portion of the pantothenate synthetases, in sense or antisense orientation, wherein expression... | 04/14/2005 |
| 20050081261 | Methods and compositions for altering seed phenotypes Plants are disclosed that express a cytosine DNA methyltransferase and that can be used to confer an altered seed phenotype, e.g., an increase in seed weight. Also disclosed are plants in which expression of an endogenous cytosine DNA methyltransferase is inhibited and ... | 04/14/2005 |
| 20050081262 | The DMI1 gene encodes a protein that is required for the early steps of bacterial and fungal symbioses Mycorrhizal and rhizobial associations represent the two most important symbiotic relationships between higher plants and microorganisms, providing access to otherwise limiting supplies of phosphate and nitrogen, respectively. Although many higher plants are able to est... | 04/14/2005 |
| 20050081263 | Cholorophyllases This invention relates to isolated polynucleotides encoding chlorophyllases. The invention also relates to the construction of recombinant DNA fragments comprising all or a portion of the isolated chlorophyllase-encoding polynucleotides, in sense or antisense orientatio... | 04/14/2005 |
