Abstract: Granular agricultural compositions formed of a micronutrient, a granular carrier, and a nitrogen source including plant readily available nitrogen are disclosed. The granular agricultural compositions can be a granular herbicidal composition when the micronutrient is a metal chelate. The granular agricultural compositions can reduce metal chelate phytotoxicity and exhibit beneficial greening. Methods of making and using the granular agricultural compositions are further disclosed.

Abstract: Herbicide-adjuvant composition compositions for controlling weed plants are disclosed. A herbicide-adjuvant composition includes a phenoxy-based herbicide and a petroleum-based adjuvant. The petroleum-based adjuvant may include a mixture of alicyclic hydrocarbons ranging from C17 to C29 and a hydro-treated heavy naphthenic distillate. The herbicide-adjuvant composition may include a viscosity modifier. Also disclosed are granules coated in a herbicide-adjuvant composition. The granule may be a fertilizer granule or a carrier granule. A method of controlling a weed plant including spreading a plurality of granules coated with a herbicide-adjuvant composition on the weed plant. The phenoxy-based herbicide and the petroleum-based adjuvant are spread on the weed plant in a single step.

Abstract: Herbicide compositions for controlling weed plants are disclosed. An herbicide composition can include topramezone and dithiopyr. An herbicide composition can include topramezone, 2,4-D, and dicamba. An herbicide composition can include topramezone, 2,4-D, dicamba, and dithiopyr. Also disclosed are granules coated in an herbicide composition. A method of controlling a weed plant including spreading a plurality of granules coated with an herbicide composition on the weed plant or spraying a liquid herbicide composition on the weed plant.

Abstract: This invention relates to an improved method for generating otic progenitor cells. The invention also relates to uses of such otic progenitor cells, for example as a medicament (e.g. in the treatment of hearing loss, deafness or other auditory disorder associated with loss of inner ear function) and/or in drug screening methods.

Abstract: The present invention includes a method for making a realistic three-dimensional animal decoy. The method includes steps of photographing an array of views of an animal that is to be the subject of the decoy. The photographic views are arranged to make a flattened, aerial view of the animal. A screen is prepared that receives the view. The screen is positioned over a three-dimensional vacuum mold, and, with application of heat and pressure, is permanently formed into a three-dimensional animal shell decoy that has photographically realistic features.
