  • GENES INVOLVED IN PLANT FIBRE DEVELOPMENT
    Publication number: 20120102584
    Abstract: The present invention provides polypeptides, and polynucleotides encoding therefore, involved in the regulation of fibre initiation and/or elongation in fibre producing plants. In particular, the present invention provides methods of altering fibre initiation in cotton making use of transcription factors, regulatory proteins or cell cycle proteins produced at or around anthesis. The invention also relates to the use of these as markers of fibre production in plants including cotton.
    Type: Application
    Filed: September 23, 2011
    Publication date: April 26, 2012
    Inventors: Yingru Wu, Danny James Llewellyn, Adriane Cristine Machado, Elizabeth Salisbury Dennis

  • Expression of the glucose oxidase gene in transgenic organisms
    Patent number: 6054318
    Abstract: A genetic construct for use in production of transgenic plants with reduced susceptibility or increased resistance to pests or diseases comprises an isolated nucleotide sequence encoding the glucose oxidase enzyme of Talaromyces flavus, the nucleotide sequence being operably linked to a promoter capable of expression in a plant, plant cell or group of plant cells, and further comprises a nucleic acid segment having a nucleotide sequence encoding a signal sequence which directs secretion of the functional glucose oxidase enzyme of T. flavus from plant cells.
