  • Herbicide resistance genes
    Patent number: 10167483
    Abstract: The subject invention provides novel plants that are not only resistant to 2,4-D, but also to pyridyloxyacetate herbicides. Heretofore, there was no expectation or suggestion that a plant with both of these advantageous properties could be produced by the introduction of a single gene. The subject invention also includes plants that produce one or more enzymes of the subject invention “stacked” together with one or more other herbicide resistance genes. The subject invention enables novel combinations of herbicides to be used in new ways. Furthermore, the subject invention provides novel methods of preventing the development of, and controlling, strains of weeds that are resistant to one or more herbicides such as glyphosate. The preferred enzyme and gene for use according to the subject invention are referred to herein as AAD-12 (AryloxyAlkanoate Dioxygenase). This highly novel discovery is the basis of significant herbicide tolerant crop trait and selectable marker opportunities.

  • Method for agrobacterium mediated transformation of cambial meristematic plant cells to produce recombinant protein
    Patent number: 10087452
    Abstract: Plant cells express a target protein, a production method thereof, and a method of producing a target protein using the same are disclosed. The plant cells have introduced therein a recombinant vector containing gene(s) encoding a target protein, and the plant cells include plant cambial meristematic cells (CMC) or callus. The cambial meristematic cells (CMCs) are a cell line containing innately undifferentiated cells isolated from a plant, wherein the cell line is a cell line isolated from the cambial tissue of the plant and has meristematic continuity without going through dedifferentiation into callus. A system of expressing a target protein using the recombinant plant cells according to the present invention can overcome the problems of conventional plant cell culture. In addition, it shows significantly high transformation efficiency, and thus can produce large amounts of target proteins, including biopharmaceutical proteins.

  • Production of oil in vegetative tissues
    Patent number: 10006039
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions and methods for providing RNA interference (RNAi) vectors comprising trigalactosyldiacylglycerol (tgd) biosynthesis enzyme constructs for increasing oil content of plants. Further, the use of tgd RNAi silencing vectors in combination with co-expression of heterologous oil regulating transcription factors, such as WRINKLED1, are contemplated to overcome the reduced growth and variable levels of embryonic lethality in plants with reduced TGD protein. Additionally, plants having reduced APS1, a gene encoding a major catalytic isoform of the small subunit of AGPase (AGP(?) plants), co-expressing a heterologous oil modulating transcription factor are contemplated for use in combination with plants having reduced TGD. Oil harvested from vegetative tissues of plants comprising vectors and genes of the present invention is contemplated for use in biofuel and biodiesel products.
