20100106632 | Method of Marketing and Contracting for the Sale of Agricultural Yield-Increase Related Products - A method of contracting for the sale of a yield-increase and/or crop protection related products includes the steps of mapping, using geo-referencing technology, areas of a field which have been treated with the yield-increase and/or crop protection related product and areas of the field which have not been treated, measuring, using geo-referencing technology, an amount of harvested crop from the field in both the treated and untreated areas, comparing the amount of harvested crop in the treated areas with the amount of harvested crop in the untreated areas to determine a yield increase associated with the treated areas, and charging for application of the yield-increase and/or crop protection related product based on the determined amount of yield increase. The data acquired may be stored in a database for further use and comparison. | 04-29-2010 |
20100043095 | PRODUCTION, FORMULATION, AND USES OF STABLE LIQUID HARPIN PROTEIN FORMULATIONS - The present invention relates to a method of making a stable liquid composition containing a harpin protein or polypeptide. Also disclosed is a composition comprising an aqueous carrier, a harpin protein or polypeptide, an effective amount of a biocidal agent, and optionally, an effective amount of one or both of a protease inhibitor and a non-ionic surfactant. The composition retains harpin activity for at least about 72 hours. The present invention also relates to a method of inducing a plant response by applying to a plant or a plant seed the composition of the present invention. | 02-18-2010 |
20090144857 | RECEPTORS FOR HYPERSENSITIVE RESPONSE ELICITORS AND USES THEREOF - The present invention is directed to an isolated protein which serves as a receptor in plants for a plant pathogen hypersensitive response elicitor. Also disclosed are nucleic acid molecules encoding such receptors as well as expression vectors, host cells, transgenic plants, and transgenic plant seeds containing such nucleic acid molecules. Both the protein and nucleic acid can be used to identify agents targeting plant cells to enhance a plant's receptivity to treatment with a hypersensitive response elicitor and to directly impart plant growth enhancement as well as resistance against disease, insects, and stress. | 06-04-2009 |
