Abstract: Mutant rice resistant/tolerant to ACCase inhibiting herbicides, in particular FOP herbicides, are listed in Table 1. The ACCase inhibiting herbicides used for selection include quizalofop. An exemplary mutant rice tolerant to an ACCase herbicide is disclosed, with a rice genome having G2096S or the equivalent, in the carboxyl transferase domain of the ACCase coding gene, using the Black-Grass numbering system. This mutation shows differential response to FOPs vs. DIMs herbicides, and a greater differential with comparable non-resistant rice lines. Methods to control weeds and methods to produce herbicide resistant rice including transgenic rice, are disclosed.

Abstract: An application model build processor generates one or more application model build artifacts based on an application model. In one example, a method includes receiving inputs identifying application model subsets and audiences, and associating application model subsets with the audiences. The method further includes receiving inputs identifying semantic constructs of the application model with the application model subsets. The method further includes generating application model build artifacts based on the application model and defined subsets. The method further includes generating documentation topics for semantic constructs in the application model based on the semantic construct, the subsets to which it belongs, the audiences associated with those subsets, and other semantic constructs in those subsets.

Abstract: Systems and methods according to the present invention relate generally to hardware, and more specifically to door guiding hardware. Cantilevered mounting brackets are provided to interface with a track, which may be mounted to a vertical support surface such as a wall or doorway. One of the brackets is stationarily mounted with respect to the track and the other includes a bearing that is movable in and guided by the track. The brackets are suited for affixation to a multi-panel door, such as a bi-fold door.

Abstract: A target drill-through metadata manager has a target drill-through metadata handler and a target specification processor. The target drill-through metadata handler defines and manages target drill-through metadata in a metadata model for model constructs that are selected as drill-through target constructs. The target specification processor processes a target report definition using the target drill-through metadata to locate a data item that refers to a drill-through target construct or part of a drill-through target construct, and automatically adds one or more target filters associated with the drill-through target construct to a target report.

Abstract: A wedge for use in a generator rotor has a wedge body with a central radially top surface of the wedge body, formed with a plurality of blades. At least some of the plurality of blades extend at an angle such that a plane defined through the blades will be non-perpendicular to a rotational axis of the rotor that will receive the wedge.

Abstract: A system for securing a cam of a locking mechanism to a rotatable shaft, which comprises a cam for actuating a locking mechanism and a clutch that includes, in part, a sleeve body having a distal end affixed to a face of the cam and a sleeve bore having a tapered sleeve journal and a sleeve screw portion with internal threads opposite the sleeve journal. The clutch also includes a collet that is installed within the sleeve bore and which has a collet nut extending outwardly from a proximal end of the sleeve bore, a collet bore, and an outer surface having an axially-split and tapered collet journal abutting the sleeve journal and a collet screw portion with external threads engaged with the sleeve screw portion. The system further includes a rotatable shaft that is secured within the collet bore with a break-away torque that is proportional to an assembly torque applied to the collet nut.
