Anna Lyznik has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Compositions and methods of use of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase
    Patent number: 8362225
    Abstract: Methods and compositions for modulating plant response, development and yield under varying environmental conditions are provided. Methods employing MAPKKK are provided. The MAPKKK sequences are used in a variety of methods including modulating root development, modulating leaf and/or shoot development, modulating tolerance under abiotic stress and modulating yield. Transformed plants, plant cell, tissues, seed and expression vectors are also provided.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 10, 2009
    Date of Patent: January 29, 2013
    Assignee: Pioneer Hi-Bred International, Inc.
    Inventors: Shoba Sivasankar, Anna Lyznik, Kellie Reimann

  • Transcriptional activators involved in abiotic stress tolerance
    Patent number: 7317141
    Abstract: The present invention provides compositions and methods for regulating expression of nucleotide sequences in a plant. Compositions comprise novel nucleic acid sequences encoding a transcription factor involved in modulating gene expression in response to abiotic stress such as cold or drought. Methods for expressing the nucleic acid sequence in a plant and improving cold and/or drought tolerance of plants are also provided.
