Patent number: 11261456Abstract: The present disclosure relates to regulatory sequences. In particular, the disclosure relates to a regulatory nucleic acid molecule, at least part of which has a transcription initiation function directing expression of an operably associated protein encoding polynucleotide of interest to non-tassel tissue in maize, but not or substantially not to tassel. The disclosure further relates to chimeric genes and expression cassettes comprising the regulatory nucleic acid molecule and to transgenic plants comprising the chimeric genes and expression cassettes.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2019Date of Patent: March 1, 2022Assignee: Syngenta Participations AGInventors: Mikyong Lee, Michael L. Nuccio, Joseph Clarke

Publication number: 20180291397Abstract: Engineered pesticidal polypeptides that are highly active against a wide range of pests and methods of making such polypeptides are disclosed. The nucleotide sequences encoding the pesticidal polypeptide can be used to transform various prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms, which organisms can be used to produce the pesticidal polypeptides. The recombinant organisms and/or the polypeptides produced by the recombinant organisms can be used to control pests in various environments.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 15, 2018Publication date: October 11, 2018Applicant: Syngenta Participations AGInventors: Mikyong LEE, Jeng Shong CHEN, Jared CONVILLE, Narendra PALEKAR, Cheryl Marie DEFONTES
