  • DETECTION OF SEQUENCES UNIQUELY ASSOCIATED WITH A DNA TARGET REGION
    Publication number: 20240093315
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments concern methods for determining sequences of interest using targeted unique molecular index (TUMI) sequences that are uniquely associated with individual polynucleotide fragments in plants, such as those present in a transgenic event, a site-specific mutation or a wild type variant. System, apparatus, and computer program products are also provided for determining a sequence of interest implementing the methods disclosed.
    Type: Application

    Publication date: March 21, 2024
    Applicant: PIONEER HI-BRED INTERNATIONAL, INC.
    Inventors: ANANTA ACHARYA, AMANDA MARIE GANNON, HENA GUO, KEVIN HAYES, ROBYN LYNN LASKOWSKI, ROBERT EBOW MCEWAN, CARISA TOWNSEND, LASANTHA UBAYASENA, GINA MARIE ZASTROW-HAYES
  • Genetic locus associated with phytophthora root and stem rot in soybean
    Patent number: 10995377
    Abstract: The present subject matter relates to methods and compositions for identifying soybean plants that having increased Phytophthora root and stem rot resistance. The methods use molecular markers to identify and to select plants with increased Phytophthora root and stem rot resistance or to identify and deselect plants with decreased Phytophthora root and stem rot resistance. Soybean plants generated by the methods disclosed are also a feature of the present subject matter.
    Type: Grant
