Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090192070Ergonomic bar soap - A cleansing bar includes a surfactant-containing body, which includes a top surface, a bottom surface that is substantially opposite to the top surface, first and second ends, and first and second sides extending horizontally and meeting at the first and second ends to together define a perimeter around the cleansing bar between the top and bottom surfaces. A first horizontally-extending groove is formed in at least the first side surface. According to one embodiment, the first horizontally-extending groove extends only partially between the first and second ends. A second horizontally-extending groove is formed in the second side surface, and also extends only partially between the first and second ends. According to another embodiment, the first horizontally-extending groove is further formed around the first and second ends and in the second side surface to encircle the cleansing bar.07-30-2009

20110126422SHOE SOLE WITH COMPRESSIBLE PROTRUDING ELEMENT - A footwear sole assembly with at least one compressible protruding element extending downwardly beyond the bottom surface of the outsole, the at least one protruding element providing a natural instability to a wearer when the sole assembly initially contacts a supporting surface. The at least one protruding element is a three-dimensional structure formed of a substantially solid elastomeric material. In another embodiment, the at least one protruding element may also protrude upwardly beyond the sole assembly in such a manner that the wearer's foot can apply pressure to the top portion of said at least one protruding element.06-02-2011

20090029861CHLOROPLAST TRANSIT PEPTIDES FOR EFFICIENT TARGETING OF DMO AND USES THEREOF - The invention provides for identification and use of certain chloroplast transit peptides for efficient processing and localization of dicamba monooxygenase (DMO) enzyme in transgenic plants. Methods for producing dicamba tolerant plants, methods for controlling weed growth, and methods for producing food, feed, and other products are also provided, as well as seed that confers tolerance to dicamba when it is applied pre- or post-emergence.01-29-2009
20090105077METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR IMPROVING PLANT HEALTH - The present invention provides methods and compositions for improving plant health. In particular, application of dicamba or another substrate of DMO, or metabolites thereof including DCSA, to a plant confers tolerance to, or defense against, abiotic or biotic stresses such as oxidative stress including herbicide application, and plant disease, and enhances crop yield. Such application may be in combination with the application of another herbicide such as glyphosate.04-23-2009
20090165166METHOD TO ENHANCE YIELD AND PURITY OF HYBRID CROPS - The present invention provides a method of herbicide treatment of selected female and male parents in a hybrid seed production system. The system results in enhanced trait purity and efficiency in the hybrid seed production system.06-25-2009
20100122384Nucleic Acid Molecules and Other Molecules Associated with Plants - Expressed Sequence Tags (ESTs) isolated from cotton are disclosed. The ESTs provide a unique molecular tool for the targeting and isolation of novel genes for plant protection and improvement. The disclosed ESTs have utility in the development of new strategies for understanding critical plant developmental and metabolic pathways. The disclosed ESTs have particular utility in isolating genes and promoters, identifying and mapping the genes involved in developmental and metabolic pathways, and determining gene function. Sequence homology analyses using the ESTs provided in the present invention, will result in more efficient gene screening for desirable agronomic traits. An expanding database of these select pieces of the plant genomics puzzle will quickly expand the knowledge necessary for subsequent functional validation, a key limitation in current plant biotechnology efforts.05-13-2010
20100197499GLYPHOSATE RESISTANT CLASS I 5-ENDOLPYRUVYLSHIKIMATE-3-PHOSPHATE SYNTHASE (EPSPS) - The compositions and methods disclosed herein provide novel DNA molecules that encode glyphosate resistant EPSPS proteins and plants containing these new proteins. The plants that express the new EPSPS proteins are themselves tolerant to the herbicidal effects of glyphosate.08-05-2010
20100279866Methods and Compositions for Improving Plant Health - The present invention provides methods and compositions for improving plant health. In particular, application of dicamba or another substrate of DMO, or metabolites thereof including DCSA, to a plant confers tolerance to, or defense against, abiotic or biotic stresses such as oxidative stress including herbicide application, and plant disease, and enhances crop yield. Such application may be in combination with the application of another herbicide such as glyphosate.11-04-2010
