Patents by Inventor Debbie A. Mahadeo

Debbie A. Mahadeo has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Nucleic acid molecules and other molecules associated with plants and uses thereof for plant improvement
    Patent number: 8124844
    Abstract: Polynucleotides useful for improvement of plants are provided. In particular, polynucleotide sequences are provided from plant sources. Polypeptides encoded by the polynucleotide sequences are also provided. The disclosed polynucleotides and polypeptides find use in production of transgenic plants to produce plants having improved properties.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 31, 2007
    Date of Patent: February 28, 2012
    Assignee: Monsanto Technology LLC
    Inventors: Thomas J. La Rosa, David K. Kovalic, Yihua Zhou, Yongwei Cao, Mark S. Abad, Scott E. Andersen, Robert E. Buehler, Joseph R. Byrum, Nordine Cheikh, Timothy W. Conner, Brian E. Coombs, Stanton B. Dotson, Patrice Dubois, Michael D. Edgerton, Dane K. Fisher, Kristine J. Hardeman, Gregory J. Heck, Gregory J. Hinkle, Raghunath V. Lalgudi, Jingdong Liu, Linda L.

  • Nucleic acid molecules and other molecules associated with plants
    Patent number: 7919608
    Abstract: Expressed Sequence Tags (ESTs) isolated from maize are disclosed. The ESTs provide a unique molecular tool for the targeting and isolation of novel genes for plant protection and improvement. The disclosed ESTs have utility in the development of new strategies for understanding critical plant developmental and metabolic pathways. The disclosed ESTs have particular utility in isolating genes and promoters, identifying and mapping the genes involved in developmental and metabolic pathways, and determining gene function. Sequence homology analyses using the ESTs provided in the present invention, will result in more efficient gene screening for desirable agronomic traits. An expanding database of these select pieces of the plant genomics puzzle will quickly expand the knowledge necessary for subsequent functional validation, a key limitation in current plant biotechnology efforts.
