  • APPLICATIONS OF ROOT-ADMINISTERED CHEMICAL HYBRIDIZING AGENTS IN PLANT BREEDING
    Publication number: 20200221654
    Abstract: A method of applying a Chemical Hybridization Agent (CHA) to a plant. The method includes providing a CHA source and bringing the CHA source in contact with a root of the plant. The method further includes having the root take up a part of the CHA. The disclosure further relates to methods of producing a haploid and/or doubled-haploid plant or hybrid seed. The disclosed method may be used in various aspects of plant breeding.
    Type: Application

  • Elite event EE-GM3 and methods and kits for identifying such event in biological samples
    Patent number: 9631202
    Abstract: The invention provides specific transgenic soybean plants, plant material and seeds, characterized in that these products harbor a specific herbicide tolerance transformation event at a specific location in the soybean genome. Tools are also provided which allow rapid and unequivocal identification of the event in biological samples.

  • Herbicide tolerant soybean plants and methods for identifying same
    Patent number: 9062324
    Abstract: The invention provides specific transgenic soybean plants, plant material and seeds, characterized in that these products harbor a stack of specific transformation events at specific locations in the soybean genome (elite event EE-GM3 and elite event EE-GM2, or elite event EE-GM3 and elite event EE-GM1). The invention also provides for methods of producing soybean plants and seeds having elite event EE-GM3 and elite event EE-GM2, or elite event EE-GM3 and elite event EE-GM1.
