| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 5597718 | Genetically engineering cotton plants for altered fiber A method is disclosed which describes the identification of cDNA clones useful for identifying fiber genes in cotton. The cDNA clones are useful in developing corresponding genomic clones from fiber producing plants to enable genetic engineering of cotton... | 01/28/1997 |
| 5177308 | Insecticidal toxins in plants Transgenic plants have been created which express an insect-specific toxin from a scorpion. The chimeric inheritable trait produced conditions of toxicity in the plant cells of toxicity to certain insects upon ingestion of plant tissues. The inheritable t... | 01/05/1993 |
| 5159135 | Genetic engineering of cotton plants and lines A method is disclosed to achieve genetic transformation of cotton plants and lines.
