Abstract: Polynucleotide constructs encoding EPSPS enzymes are disclosed. The constructs have at least one transcriptional enhancer operably linked to a soybean or Brassica promoter and to a sequence respectively encoding the soybean or Brassica EPSPS chloroplast transit peptide and soybean or Brassica EPSPS enzyme. The EPSPS enzymes comprise a modified region that confers herbicide resistance.

Abstract: An electroluminescent display has a transparent front-electrode, rear electrodes, and a layer of electroluminescent material located between the first and second electrodes. Conductive tracks are electrically connected to the rear electrodes and supply a driving voltage for the electroluminescent material to the rear electrodes. A backplane layer is provided between the electroluminescent material layer and the conductive tracks, and is electrically connected to the front electrode such that the potential difference across the electroluminescent material layer in the region of the conductive tracks is substantially zero. In this way, when the conductive track is supplying the driving voltage to the rear-electrodes, the electroluminescent material layer is not illuminated by an electric field between the conductive tracks and the front electrode. Gaps may be defined in the front electrode corresponding substantially to the location of the conductive tracks.

Abstract: The invention is directed to polynucleotide constructs having at least one transcriptional enhancer operably liked to a rice EPSPS promoter and to a sequence encoding the rice EPSPS chloroplast transit peptide and rice EPSPS enzyme, the encoded enzyme having a modified region that confers herbicide resistance.

Abstract: A seven-segment display for displaying the digits 0 to 9 has a top segment (1), a middle segment (4), a bottom segment (7), left and right upper segments 2, 3 and left and right lower segments (5, 6). The bottom segment (7) is composed of a horizontal limb (7a) and a vertical limb (7b). The interface between the top segment (1) and the upper left segment (2) is substantially horizontal. The interfaces between the middle segment (4) and each of the adjacent vertical segments (2-6) are arcuate. The interfaces between the top and bottom segments (1, 7) and the adjacent right segments (3, 6) are vertical. The characterising features increase the clarity of the display without increasing the total number of segments.

Abstract: An HPPD-inhibitor resistant HPPD enzyme comprising an amino acid sequence QIKECQ and a sequence F, (D/E), F, (M/L), W1, (P/A), P, W2, X, X, Y, Y wherein W1 is either A or P and where (i) if W1 is A then W2 is P, A, Q or L or, (ii) if W1 is P then W2 is P, A, Q or T, and wherein X is any amino acid. The invention also include methods of identifying HPPD inhibitor resistant HPPD enzymes and also of the enzymes thus identified.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the production of a non-transgenic plant resistant or tolerant to a herbicide of the phosphonomethylglycine family, e.g., glyphosate. The present invention also relates to the use of a recombinagenic Oligonucleobase to make a desired mutation in the chromosomal or episomal sequences of a plant in the gene encoding for 5-enol pyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS). The mutated protein, which substantially maintains the catalytic activity of the wild-type protein, allows for increased resistance or tolerance of the plant to a herbicide of the phosphonomethylglycine family, and allows for the substantially normal growth or development of the plant, its organs, tissues or cells as compared to the wild-type plant irrespective of the presence or absence of the herbicide.

Abstract: The present invention provides, inter alia, an isolated polynucleotide comprising a region encoding a chloroplast transit peptide and a glyphosate resistant 5-enolpyruvylshikimate phosphate synthase (EPSPS) 3′ of the peptide, the said region being under expression control of a plant operable promoter, with the provisos that the said promoter is not heterologous with respect to the said region, and the chloroplast transit peptide is not heterologous with respect to the said synthase.

Abstract: A liquid feed bottle for an infant having a body made from a container portion bonded to a teat with an orifice. The body holds a liquid feed such as milk. A cap is bonded or sealed to the body and protects the teat. A cap portion is initially detachable from the body by pulling and removing a tear strip, the cap portion thus released being subsequently securable on the body by a press fit.

Abstract: A multi-pack comprising a plurality of containers, each having a respective label attached thereto, and packaging for holding said plurality of containers together, wherein the packaging is formed from a strip of sheet material which also constitutes at least part of said labels, and the packaging includes a plurality of connecting portions each of which extends from one to the other of a respective contiguous pair of the containers to join those containers together.
