FLORIAN J. KRAEMER 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).

  • Plants with elevated levels of glucan
    Patent number: 9920327
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to mutations in licheninase genes encoding polypeptides with decreased licheninase activity, which when expressed in plants results in elevated levels of glucan in the plants. In particular, the disclosure relates to licheninase nucleic acids and polypeptides related to glucan accumulation in plants, plants with reduced expression of a licheninase nucleic acid, and methods related to the generation of plants with increased glucan content in the cell walls of leaf tissue.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 1, 2012
    Date of Patent: March 20, 2018
    Assignee: The Regents of the University of California
    Inventors: Markus Pauly, Florian J. Kraemer, Sarah Hake

  • Maize variety and method of production
    Patent number: 8735690
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a maize plant, seed, variety, and hybrid. More specifically, the disclosure relates to a maize plant containing a Cal-1 allele, whose expression results in increased cell wall-derived glucan content in the maize plant. The disclosure also relates to crossing inbreds, varieties, and hybrids containing the Cal-1 allele to produce novel types and varieties of maize plants.
