Abstract: Provided is a Cas12 reporter oligonucleotide comprising an arm-stem-loop-stem-arm structure, having a fluorophore molecule on one end of the oligonucleotide and a quencher molecule on the other end, wherein the oligonucleotide is able to be cleaved by Cas12 enzyme in the presence of a guide RNA bound to a target sequence. Also provided include kits and methods of detecting the presence or absence of a target sequence.

Abstract: A new and distinct raspberry variety named ‘N1237057’ is described herein. The variety resulted from selection among a population of seedlings derived from a controlled cross carried out in 2012 between NN09030 (seed parent) (not patented) and NN08021 (pollen parent) (not patented). The present variety was selected for its yield, fruit firmness, vigour and harvest season.

Abstract: This invention provides novel oral dosage forms comprising a hops extract. The oral dosage forms are capable of activating bitter taste receptors expressed in the gastrointestinal tract. The applications include but are not limited to the use of the oral dosage forms for reducing energy intake and/or appetite in a subject.

Abstract: The invention provides a methods and materials for producing and selecting plants with at least one dwarfing-associated phenotype. The methods and materials relate to altering the expression, or activity, of an ARF3 polypeptide in the plant, and selecting plants with altered the expression, or activity, of an ARF3 polypeptide. The invention also provides plants produced or selected by the methods. The methods also involve crossing plants of the invention with other plants to produce further plants with at least one dwarfing-associated phenotype.

Abstract: A new and distinct variety of apple tree is described. The variety results from a limb sport found in Angers, France. The fruit of the apple tree of this new variety have an attractive appearance, characterised by a high proportion of red over color and an over color pattern that is a solid flush.

Abstract: The invention provides a method of producing a host cell, plant cell or plant with increased trilobatin content or increased N 4?-O-glycosyltransferase activity, the method comprising transformation of the host cell or plant cell with a polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide with 4?-O-glycosyltransferase activity. The invention also provides host cells, plant cells and plants, genetically modified to contain and or express the polynucleotides.

Abstract: An aspect of the invention provides a method for determining at least one internal quality attribute of an article (102) of agricultural produce.

Abstract: A new and distinct variety of apple tree is described. The variety results from a limb sport found in Washington, United States.
