| 20090313719 | Compositions and Methods for Increasing Transgene Expression in the Plastids of Higher Plants - Nucleic acid constructs comprising a highly efficient 5′ regulatory region for the expression of heterologous proteins from the plastids of higher plants are provided. Also provided are plant cells and transgenic plants comprising the same. | 2009-12-17 |
| 20090313720 | DELTA-8 DESATURASE AND ITS USE IN MAKING POLYUNSATURATED FATTY ACIDS - Isolated nucleic acid fragments and recombinant constructs comprising such fragments encoding a delta-8 desaturase along with a method of making long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) using this delta-8 desaturase in plants and oleaginous yeast are disclosed. | 2009-12-17 |
| 20090313721 | Novel Bacillus Thuringiensis Gene with Lepidopteran Activity - The invention provides nucleic acids, and variants and fragments thereof, obtained from strains of | 2009-12-17 |
| 20090313722 | Novel Bacillus Thuringiensis Gene with Lepidopteran Activity - The invention provides nucleic acids, and variants and fragments thereof, obtained from strains of | 2009-12-17 |
| 20090313723 | Methods for altering organ mass, controlling fertility and enhancing asexual reproduction in plants - The invention provides methods of altering organ mass, controlling fertility and enhancing asexual reproduction in plants through the modulation of plant growth and cell proliferation. The methods involve producing transgenic plants comprising a recombinant expression cassette containing an ANT nucleic acid linked to a plant promoter. | 2009-12-17 |
| 20090313724 | Alteration of Flowering Time in Plants - The present invention provides genetic identification and use information about a family of genes, the FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC) genes, that is part of the regulate the timing of the onset of flowering in plants. This information enables creation of transgenic plants in which the timing of the flowering of the plants has been selectively altered. Since these genes natively act to delay the time of flowering in plants, enhancing activity of the FLC protein delays the timing of flowering initiation while inhibiting the activity of FLC advances the timing of the start of flowering. A representative number of samples of the gene family are described. Members of the gene family are demonstrated to work in other plant species as well. | 2009-12-17 |
| 20090313725 | Gibberellin 2-Oxidase Genes And Uses Thereof - Novel gibberellin 2-oxidase (GA2ox) genes were identified. Differential expression of GA2ox genes correlated with flower development, seed germination, tiller growth and other developmental processes. In addition, the early and increased growth of tiller and adventitious root and altered root architecture caused by overexpression of GA2oxs further suggest the pleiotropic role of GA2oxs in controlling growth and architecture in plants such as rice. GA2ox5, GA2ox6 and GA2ox9 were three genes encoding class C20 GA2oxs in rice. Mutants or transgenic rice overexpressing class C20 GA2oxs exhibited a broad range of mutant phenotypes, including semi-dwarfism, increased root system and higher tiller numbers that may favor grain yield. Mutations in the conserved domain III were found to affect the physiological activity of class C20 GA2oxs. | 2009-12-17 |
| 20090313726 | ABIOTIC STRESS TOLERANT GENE FROM AVICENNIA MARINA ENCODING A PROTEIN - The present invention relates to an abiotic stress tolerant transgenic plant comprising an Am244 DNA from | 2009-12-17 |
| 20090313727 | Nucleic acid molecules and other molecules associated with the sucrose pathway - The present invention is in the field of plant biochemistry. More specifically the invention relates to nucleic acid sequences from plant cells, in particular, nucleic acid sequences from maize and soybean plants associated with the sucrose pathway. The invention encompasses nucleic acid molecules that encode proteins and fragments of proteins. In addition, the invention also encompasses proteins and fragments of proteins so encoded and antibodies capable of binding these proteins or fragments. The invention also relates to methods of using the nucleic acid molecules, proteins and fragments of proteins and antibodies, for example for genome mapping, gene identification and analysis, plant breeding, preparation of constructs for use in plant gene expression and transgenic plants. | 2009-12-17 |

In one aspect, the probe configuration includes a cantilever, and a planar tip attached to the cantilever. The cantilever only partially overlaps the planar tip, and extends along a longitudinal direction thereof. The planar tip is of a two-dimensional geometry having at least one corner remote from the cantilever, which corner during use contacts a surface to be scanned. | 2009-12-17 |
| 20090313731 | MOLECULAR MANIPULATOR, A METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME, AND A METHOD OF MOVING A NANOSTRUCTURE - A molecular manipulator includes a light-sensitive molecule, including a double bond, which changes a cis-trans configuration of the double bond in response to illumination by light of a selected wavelength, and a probe, for example, a probe of a scanned-proximity probe microscope, to which the light-sensitive molecule is attached. A method of making the molecular manipulator includes covalently bonding the light-sensitive molecule to the probe. A method of moving a nanostructure includes controllably grasping, moving, and releasing the nanostructure with the molecular manipulator. | 2009-12-17 |
