Abstract: The present invention relates generally to compositions and methods for mutating a plant and plants and plant products produced by said methods. Also, compositions and methods for controlling a plant species are disclosed herein.

Abstract: Methods and compositions for controlling the growth of an invasive species by application of a composition comprised of a natural pesticide derived from a species to the invasive species, especially endocides.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to compositions and methods for mutating a plant and plants and plant products produced by said methods. Also, compositions and methods for controlling a plant species are disclosed herein.

Abstract: In some embodiments, the compositions and methods relate to compounds isolated from plants in the Salviniaceae family, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same, and methods of using the same.

Abstract: Methods and compositions for controlling the growth of an invasive species by application of a composition comprised of a natural pesticide derived from a species to the invasive species, especially endocides. Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for controlling the growth of a first invasive species by application of a composition comprising a natural pesticide derived from a second invasive species to the first invasive species. In some embodiments, the invasive species is an invasive species with glands as the primary accumulation sites of autotoxic chemicals. The first and second invasive species may be the same or they may be different. In some embodiments, the natural pesticide may be an endocide. An endocide (endogenous biocide) is a biocide derived from an endogenous bioactive agent (e.g., a secondary metabolite) that does not cause apparent poison in normal growth of the producing species but will poison or inhibit and even eliminate the parent species when induced in producing species.

Abstract: Compositions and methods related to anti-cancer terpenoid compounds isolated from plants in the Salviniaceae family, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same, and methods of treating cancer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the production process of biotin by fermentation using genetically engineered microorganisms, including Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas mutabilis, and DNA sequences and vectors to be used in such process.

Abstract: The use of camptothecin (CPT), hyperoside and/or trifolin in preventing or inhibiting the growth of fungal pathogens, including molds.

Abstract: This invention relates to insect control with Camptotheca products, particularly, termiticides, baits, preservatives, and termite-resistant products. Natural or synthetic Camptothecin and/or one of its natural or synthetic analogs is applied to deter and/or eliminate termites, while flavonoids are applied to attract termites. CPTs and/or CPTs-containing plant matter is processed with cellulose products to produce termite-resistant products and structures.

Abstract: A new cultivar of Prunus, ‘Purple Pride’, characterized by its foliage that is deep burgundy in color with new leaves emerging bright dark red and foliage coloration that is retained from spring through fall, its foliage that appears clean and disease free, its stems that can be readily trained into a single trunk, its white flowers that are conspicuous against its burgundy foliage, its consistent abundant crop of red fruit with a pleasing taste, its drought resistance, and is usefulness when planted in wildlife food plots in the south as the burgundy foliage allows land managers to easily recognize ‘Purple Pride’ plants in a brushland and avoid them during mowing regimes.
