| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 7732678 | Cotton fiber transcriptional factors Novel DNA constructs are provided which may be used as molecular probes or inserted into a plant host to provide for modification of transcription of a DNA sequence of interest in cotton fiber, particularly in very early fiber development. The DNA constructs compris... | 06/08/2010 |
| 6740488 | Cotton event PV-GHGT07(1445) compositions and methods for detection thereof The present invention provides DNA compositions and assays for detecting the presence of the DNA compositions in PV-GHGT07(1445) cotton event based on the DNA sequence of the recombinant construct inserted into the cotton genome and of the genomic sequences flanking... | 05/25/2004 |
| 6657046 | Insect inhibitory lipid acyl hydrolases The present invention discloses DNA sequences encoding plant and novel lipid acyl hydrolase proteins having coleopteran specific insect inhibitory activity, as well as variants and permuteins having enhanced levels of activity directed to controlling cole... | 12/02/2003 |
| 6653280 | Antifungal polypeptide AlyAFP from Alyssum and methods for controlling plant pathogenic fungi An antifungal polypeptide, AlyAFP, that controls fungal damage to plants is provided. DNA encoding this polypeptide can be cloned into vectors for transformation of plant-colonizing microorganisms or plants, thereby providing a method of inhibiting fungal... | 11/25/2003 |
| 6018100 | Promoter for transgenic plants A full-length transcript promoter from figwort mosaic virus (FMV) is identified and its DNA sequence given. The promoter functions as a strong and uniform promoter for chimeric genes inserted into plant cells. This strong promoter function is exhibited by... | 01/25/2000 |
| 5959091 | Truncated gene of Bacillus thuringiensis encoding a polypeptide toxin The invention relates to genetically engineered plant-colonizing microorganisms which prolife-rate in symbiotic or non-detrimental relationships with the plant in the plant environment. Such microorganisms contain DNA derived from Bacillus thuringiensis w... | 09/28/1999 |
| 5850023 | Modified plant viral replicase genes DNA sequences encoding plant viral proteins which contain modifications of the amino acid sequence -Gly1-Xaa1-Xaa2-Xaa3-Xaa4-Gly2-Lys- are disclosed. These modified proteins confer viral resistance when expressed in transformed plants. A method for provid... | 12/15/1998 |
| 5804425 | Glyphosate-tolerant 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthases Genes encoding Class II EPSPS enzymes are disclosed. The genes are useful in producing transformed bacteria and plants which are tolerant to glyphosate herbicide. Class II EPSPS genes share little homology with known, Class I EPSPS genes, and do not hybri... | 09/08/1998 |
| 5633435 | Glyphosate-tolerant 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthases Genes encoding Class II EPSPS enzymes are disclosed. The genes are useful in producing transformed bacteria and plants which are tolerant to glyphosate herbicide. Class II EPSPS genes share little homology with known, Class I EPSPS genes, and do not hybri... | 05/27/1997 |
| 5627061 | Glyphosate-tolerant 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthases Genes encoding Class II EPSPS enzymes are disclosed. The genes are useful in producing transformed bacteria and plants which are tolerant to glyphosate herbicide. Class II EPSPS genes share little homology with known, Class I EPSPS genes, and do not hybri... | 05/06/1997 |
| 4855495 | Enhanced 2-hydroxy-4-methylthiobutanoic acid composition and method of preparation An enhanced 2-hydroxy-4-methylthiobutanoic acid composition and method of preparation are disclosed. The enhanced composition comprises greater than 2.2 and less than about 10 moles of 2-hydroxy-4-methylthiobutanoic acid equivalent per mole of calcium.... | 08/08/1989 |
| 4524077 | Liquid 2-hydroxy-4-methylthiobutyric acid and process for the preparation thereof A process for the preparation of 2-hydroxy-4-methylthiobutyric acid having improved color, odor and lower viscosity. 2-hydroxy-4-methylthiobutyric acid which is also known as 2-hydroxy-4-(methylthio) butanoic acid, is hydrolyzed with sulfuric acid having ... | 06/18/1985 |
