  • Patent number: 11661608
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods and compositions for the identification and selection of soybean plants that comprise a genotype associated with dicamba tolerance. In addition, methods are provided for screening germplasm entries for the performance and expression of this trait.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 27, 2020
    Date of Patent: May 30, 2023
    Assignee: Monsanto Technology LLC

  • Publication number: 20220383978
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method of generating a new trait converted elite cultivar through a method of breeding. For instance, the method involves the use of parent plants, which are respectively the traited variant of the parents of the non-traited elite cultivar and estimating a minimum population size necessary to generate a progeny plant comprising the desired trait and sharing a sufficiently high identity by descent with the non-traited elite cultivar to ensure replication and equivalency of general performance. The present method may be used to generate an elite cultivar in fewer generations, thereby accelerating new line production, and reducing costs. The present method may also be used to generate non-traited variants of traited lines.

  • Patent number: 10604767
    Abstract: Methods and compositions for the identification and selection of loci modulating phenotypic expression of transgenic dicamba and glyphosate resistance traits in plant breeding are disclosed. In addition, methods are provided for screening germplasm entries for the performance and expression of the improved dicamba and glyphosate tolerance conferred by the loci.
