  • Patent number: 6160205
    Abstract: The present invention relates to new caffeoyl-CoA 3-O-methyltransferase genes isolated from parsley and their use for the transformation of vectors, host organisms and plants.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 10, 1997
    Date of Patent: December 12, 2000
    Assignee: Bayer Aktiengesellschaft
    Inventors: Ulrich Matern, Rudiger Hain, Hans-Jorg Reif, Klaus Stenzel, Jurgen E. Thomzik
  • Patent number: 5973230
    Abstract: New genes for pinosylvine synthase ("pinosylvine synthase genes") have been found, which can be incorporated into the hereditary factors (the genome) of plants that generate no pinosylvine or only inadequate pinosylvine, whereby an increased resistance of these plants to pests can be brought about. Also disclosed are vectors, host organisms, and plants transformed with the new pinosylvine synthase genes.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 7, 1996
    Date of Patent: October 26, 1999
    Assignee: Bayer Aktiengesellschaft
    Inventors: Helmut Kindl, Rudiger Hain, Hans-Jorg Reif, Klaus Stenzel, Jurgen Thomzik
  • Patent number: 5968796
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and its use for the transformation of vectors, host organisms and plants and for the breeding of plants with a high resistance to herbicides.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 16, 1997
    Date of Patent: October 19, 1999
    Assignee: Bayer Aktiengesellschaft
    Inventors: Barbara Bieseler, Peter Reinemer, Rudiger Hain, Karlheinz Mann, Hans-Jorg Reif, Jurgen Ernst Thomzik
  • Patent number: 5834268
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the gene for stilbene synthase, isolated from plants, and its use for the transformation of vectors, host organisms and plants, as well as to the production of plants which have an increased resistance to pests.
