20090077686 | MODIFICATION OF PLANT LIGNIN CONTENT - DNA constructs comprising a first DNA segment that corresponds to at least a portion of a gene in the monolignol biosynthetic pathway, a spacer DNA segment, and a second DNA segment that is complementary to the first DNA segment can be used to reduce or modulate the lignin content in plants. In some embodiments, DNA constructs comprise at least a portion of a gene for 4CL, C3H, CCR, C4H or CCoAOMT. Vascular-preferred and constitutive promoters can be used to drive expression of the constructs. | 03-19-2009 |

20100122382 | Cell Cycle Genes and Related Methods - Novel plant polysaccharide synthesis genes and polypeptides encoded by such genes are provided. These genes and polynucleotide sequences are useful regulating polysaccharide synthesis and plant phenotype. Moreover, these genes are useful for expression profiling of plant polysaccharide synthesis genes. The invention specifically provides cell cycle polynucleotide and polypeptide sequences isolated from | 05-13-2010 |
20100212047 | COMPOSITIONS ISOLATED FROM FORAGE GRASSES AND METHODS FOR THEIR USE - Isolated polynucleotides encoding polypeptides active in lignin, fructan and tannin biosynthetic pathways are provided, together with expression vectors and host cells comprising such isolated polynucleotides. Methods for the use of such polynucleotides and polypeptides are also provided. | 08-19-2010 |
