  • Publication number: 20250027106
    Abstract: Provided herein are methods and compositions for restoring fertility and maintaining sterility in plants. In particular, one method disclosed includes introducing into a male-sterile plant, wherein the plant comprises one or more homozygous mutations in a male-fertility gene, a plant restoration donor chromosomal component comprising a plant-derived polynucleotide that confers a plant phenotypic marker linked to a male-fertility restoration locus that functionally complements the male-sterility phenotype from the one or more homozygous mutations in the male-sterile plant. In some examples, the plant-derived polynucleotide that confers a plant phenotypic marker and the male-fertility restoration locus are linked to each other and located on the same chromosomal arm on the plant restoration donor chromosomal component. In some examples, the plant-derived polynucleotide that confers a plant phenotypic marker, the male-fertility restoration locus, or both are modified.

    Abstract: Compositions and methods are provided for high-efficiency large scale manipulation of genomic regions and chromosomal engineering of plant genomes. Enhancement of chromosomal modification includes the provision of one or more linker oligonucleotides complementary to the distinct chromosomal ends following double strand breaks, increasing the temperature effect and/or recurrent cutting by an endonuclease to facilitate higher chromosomal modification including large segment translocations and recombination. Site-specific directed DNA breaks under one or more of the experimental conditions (including CRISPR-Cas systems) disclosed enhance targeted recombination frequencies, crossover efficiency and movement of large chromosomal segments in crop plant cells.

In particular, the nucleic acid sequences are useful for preparing plants and microorganisms that possess insecticidal activity. Thus, transformed bacteria, plants, plant cells, plant tissues and seeds are provided. Compositions are insecticidal nucleic acids and proteins of bacterial species. The sequences find use in the construction of expression vectors for subsequent transformation into organisms of interest including plants, as probes for the isolation of other homologous (or partially homologous) genes. The pesticidal proteins find use in controlling, inhibiting growth or killing Lepidopteran, Coleopteran, Dipteran, fungal, Hemipteran and nematode pest populations and for producing compositions with insecticidal activity.
