  • Publication number: 20260117241
    Abstract: Provided herein are plants, plant parts, a population of plants or plant parts, and plant products (e.g., seed compositions, protein compositions, feed, food, and beverage products) comprising reduced enolase activity, and compositions and methods of producing such plants and plant parts. The plants, plant parts, population of plants or plant parts, or plant products can have a genetic mutation that reduces the enolase activity, which can be located at least partially in an enolase gene or its homolog or in its regulatory region, and can have increased protein content and/or altered seed composition.

  • Publication number: 20260085302
    Abstract: Compositions and methods for targeting pre-determined DNA or RNA sequences in plant pests are provided. The methods result in the targeted elimination of plant pests that comprise the pre-determined DNA or RNA sequence(s). Compositions comprise a Cas12a2 protein, or a polynucleotide encoding the same, and at least one guide polynucleotide, or a polynucleotide encoding the same, wherein each guide polynucleotide comprises a portion complementary to a pre-determined target sequence of a plant pest. Methods to use these compositions to selectively target and eliminate plant pests that harbor the targeted DNA or RNA sequence(s) are described herein.

  • Publication number: 20260085301
    Abstract: Compositions and methods for targeting pre-determined DNA sequences in cells of interest are provided. The methods result in the targeted elimination of cells that comprise the pre-determined DNA sequence(s). Compositions comprise DNA constructs comprising nucleotide sequences that encode a Cas12a2 protein operably linked to a promoter that is operable in the cells of interest. Methods to use these DNA constructs to selectively target and eliminate cells that harbor the targeted DNA sequence(s) are described herein.
