| 20110289621 | Non-transgenic Tomato Varieties Having Increased Shelf Life Post-harvest - A series of independent human-induced, non-transgenic mutations found in at least one non-ripening (NOR) gene of tomato; tomato plants having these mutations in at least one of their NOR genes; and a method of creating and identifying similar and/or additional mutations in the NOR gene by screening pooled and/or individual tomato plants. The tomato plants of the present invention exhibit fruit that ripen more slowly, rot more slowly, are firmer, and have a longer shelf life post-harvest as a result of non-transgenic mutations in at least one of their NOR genes. | 11-24-2011 |
| 20110159168 | Non-transgenic Tomato Varieties Having Increased Shelf Life Post-Harvest Due to Alterations in Beta-Galactosidase 4 - The present invention provides a series of independent human-induced, non-transgenic mutations found in at least one tomato β-galactosidase 4 gene, tomato plants having these mutations in at least one of their tomato β-galactosidase 4 genes, and a method of creating and identifying similar and/or additional mutations in the tomato β-galactosidase 4 gene by screening pooled and/or individual tomato plants. Tomato plants identified and produced in accordance with the present invention have fruit that are firmer when ripe with reduced post-harvest softening compared to fruit from wild type tomato plants as a result of non-transgenic mutations in at least one of their tomato β-galactosidase 4 genes. | 06-30-2011 |
| 20110129428 | Safflower with Elevated Gamma-Linolenic Acid - The present invention relates to compositions and methods for preparing gamma-linoleic acid (GLA) in safflower plants, particularly from seeds of safflower. Nucleic acid sequences and constructs encoding one or more fatty acid desaturase sequences are used to generate transgenic safflower plants that contain and express one or more of these sequences and produce high levels of GLA in safflower seeds. Provided are transgenic safflower plants and seeds that produce high levels of GLA. Additionally provided are oils produced from seeds of this invention. The invention also relates to methods of treating a variety of diseases including nervous system disorders, inflammatory conditions, cancer and cardiovascular disorders using the oils of this invention. | 06-02-2011 |
| 20110113507 | Tomatoes That Soften More Slowly Post-Harvest Due To Non-Transgenic Alterations In An Expansin Gene - A series of independent human-induced non-transgenic mutations found in an expansin gene (LeExp1) of tomato; tomato plants having these mutations in their LeExp1 genes; and a method of creating and identifying similar and/or additional mutations in the LeExp1 gene by screening pooled and/or individual tomato plants. The tomato plants of the present invention exhibit fruit that soften more slowly post-harvest without having the inclusion of foreign nucleic acids in their genomes. | 05-12-2011 |
| 20110029422 | TRADING GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSION CREDITS DETERMINED BASED ON THE USE OF A GENETICALLY MODIFIED PLANT - To trade greenhouse gas emission credits on an electronic trading market, an amount of nitrogen applied or to be applied to obtain a desired crop yield using a genetically modified version of a plant is determined. The genetically modified version of the plant has a nitrogen utilization efficiency greater than a non-genetically modified version of the plant. An amount of greenhouse gas emission is determined based on the amount of nitrogen. A greenhouse gas credit is calculated based on the determined amount of greenhouse gas emission. The calculated greenhouse gas credit is conveyed to one or more potential buyers through the electronic trading market. | 02-03-2011 |
| 20100318455 | TRADING NITROGEN CREDITS DETERMINED BASED ON THE USE OF A GENETICALLY MODIFIED PLANT - To trade nitrogen credits on an electronic trading market, an amount of nitrogen applied or to be applied to obtain a desired crop yield using a genetically modified version of a plant is determined. The genetically modified version of the plant has a nitrogen utilization efficiency greater than a non-genetically modified version of the plant. A nitrogen credit is calculated based on the determined amount of nitrogen. The credit is conveyed to one or more potential buyers through the electronic trading market. | 12-16-2010 |
| 20100196582 | SOYBEANS WITH REDUCED ISOFLAVONES - Non-naturally occurring soybean plants and seeds having reduced isoflavones are provided. A series of independent non-transgenic human-induced mutations found in one or more isoflavone synthase genes of soybean; soybean plants having these mutations in one or more isoflavone synthase genes; and a method of creating and finding similar and/or additional mutations of the isoflavone synthase gene by screening pooled and/or individual DNA of soybean plants. The results are soybean plants and seeds having reduced isoflavones. | 08-05-2010 |
