20090307802 | EPSPS Mutants - The present invention relates to the production of a non-transgenic plant resistant or tolerant to a herbicide of the phosphonomethylglycine family, e.g., glyphosate. The present invention also relates to the use of a recombinagenic oligonucleobase to make a desired mutation in the chromosomal or episomal sequences of a plant in the gene encoding for 5-enol pyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS). The mutated protein, which substantially maintains the catalytic activity of the wild-type protein, allows for increased resistance or tolerance of the plant to a herbicide of the phosphonomethylglycine family, and allows for the substantially normal growth or development of the plant, its organs, tissues or cells as compared to the wild-type plant irrespective of the presence or absence of the herbicide. Additionally the present invention relates to mutant | 12-10-2009 |

20090205064 | Mutated Acetohydroxyacid Synthase Genes in Brassica - Provided are mutated acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS) nucleic acids and the proteins encoded by the mutated nucleic acids. Also provided are canola plants, cells, and seeds comprising the mutated genes. | 08-13-2009 |
20120073186 | FATTY ACID BLENDS AND USES THEREFOR - Provided herein are blends oils or fatty acids comprising more than 50% medium chain fatty acids, or the fatty acid alkyl esters thereof, and having low melting points. Such blends are useful as a fuel or as a starting material for the production of, for example, a biodiesel. Also provided genetically altered or modified plants, modified such that the amount of medium chain fatty acids generated by the plant are increased. Further provided is a method of predicting the melting point of a blend of fatty acid methyl esters and the use of such a method for identifying blends suitable for use as, for example, a biodiesel. | 03-29-2012 |
20120178628 | MUTATED ACETOHYDROXYACID SYNTHASE GENES IN BRASSICA - Provided are mutated acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS) nucleic acids and the proteins encoded by the mutated nucleic acids. Also provided are canola plants, cells, and seeds comprising the mutated genes. | 07-12-2012 |
