  • PROTEIN RICH FOOD INGREDIENT FROM BIOMASS AND METHODS OF PRODUCTION
    Publication number: 20160135480
    Abstract: The present invention provides a protein material and food ingredient from a sustainable and stable source. The sustainable and stable source of the food or food ingredient is cellular biomass, for example an algal or microbial biomass. The invention discloses that the cellular biomass can be subjected to a series of steps to derive the protein material and food or food ingredient, which has high nutritional content and has pleasing organoleptic properties.

  • Methods of use of seed-origin endophyte populations
    Patent number: 9295263
    Abstract: This application relates to methods and materials for providing a benefit to a seed or seedling of an agricultural plant (e.g., an agricultural grass plant), or the agricultural plant derived from the seed or seedling. For example, this application provides purified bacterial populations that include novel seed-origin bacterial endophytes, and synthetic combinations of seeds and/or seedlings (e.g., cereal seeds and/or seedlings) with heterologous seed-derived bacterial endophytes.
