  • Methods of optimizing gene expression in plant
    Patent number: 12416099
    Abstract: A method for in-planta high throughput evaluation of endogenous genetic regulatory elements of a crop plant, obtaining a nucleic acid encoding a native regulatory element of a trait-related gene, introducing one or more genetic changes in each of a plurality of copies of the native regulatory element, introducing the genetic library into model plants, utilizing high throughput transformation, screening the transformed model plants, and identifying the one or more genetic changes in the altered regulatory element of the selected model plant.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 23, 2024
    Date of Patent: September 16, 2025
    Assignee: PLANTARC BIO LTD.
    Inventors: Dror Shalitin, Noam Grimberg, Daniel Bechar, Tal Cohen
  • PROTOPORPHYRINOGEN OXIDASE (PPO) RESISTANCE PLANT
    Publication number: 20250163448
    Abstract: Disclosed are transgenic plant expressing a fungal protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO) enzyme and methods for conferring Herbicide Tolerance (HT) to PPO-type inhibitor herbicides, and controlling weeds, by selectively protecting the transgenic crop expressing the fungal PPO enzyme.
