Abstract: Techniques for generating action recommendations for a data tape system are disclosed. A data tape system generates action recommendations for a data tape based on library-based metadata messages as well as a measured data quality value of the data tape. The system initiates an operation resulting in the data tape interacting with a media drive. A data tape library controller generates one or more metadata messages based on a result of a requested operation. The metadata message may include information regarding the type of error and a default recommended course of action. The system generates the recommended action for the data tape using a trained machine learning model.

Abstract: The invention provides methods and compositions for breeding pepper (Capsicum sp. such as Capsicum annuum) lines, including isogenic and nearly isogenic lines, displaying one or more mature fruit color(s) of interest. Predictive genetic markers and associated sequences and primers, associated with phenotypic diversity at the Ccs locus encoding Capsanthin-Capsorubin Synthase, and the Ze locus encoding Zeaxanthin Epoxidase are also provided, as well as methods for breeding pepper lines. Further provided are pepper plants, and plant parts including seeds, seed mixtures, fruit, and packaged fruit, which display mature fruit color(s) of interest.

Abstract: A carbon-based process for the selection of heterotrophically cultured plant cells is contemplated as are plants transformed using that process and a kit useful for effecting such a transformation. Plant cells are transformed with a heterologous DNA segment that contains two expression cassettes. The first cassette contains a gene that encodes a heterologous enzyme that on expression converts a growth-limiting (encrypted) carbon source that does not support growth and proliferation of non-transformed plant cells into a carbon source that supports growth and proliferation of transformed plant cells. The second cassette contains a second gene to be expressed in the transformed plant cells. A mixture transformed and non-transformed plant cells is cultured under heterotrophic culture conditions with the growth-limiting carbon source as the only carbon source.

Abstract: A method for producing genetically transgenic plants exhibiting resistance to a geminivirus such as tomato yellow leaf curl virus. In another aspect, the invention embraces chimeric plant genes, cassettes containing the chimeric plant genes, heterologous DNA segments containing the cassettes, and genetically transgenic cells and differentiated plants which exhibit resistance to geminiviruses. In yet another aspect, the invention embraces bacterial cells and plant transformation vectors comprising a heterologous DNA segment encoding for resistance to geminiviruses.

Abstract: A DNA sequence encoding a PVX replicase gene obtained from ORF1 of a PVX genome is provided. A plant gene containing the PVX replicase coding region is also provided as is a truncated derivative of the PVX replicase gene. A PVX replicase gene is inserted into a plant to confer resistance to the plant against PVX infection when the PVX replicase gene is sufficiently expressed.
