  • Publication number: 20230416769
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides modified, transgenic, or genome edited/mutated corn plants that are semi-dwarf and have one or more improved ear traits relative to a control plant, such as increase in ear diameter, ear fresh weight, and single kernel weight, and increased yield. The modified, transgenic, or genome edited/mutated corn plants comprise a transgene encoding one or more molybdenum cofactor (Moco) biosynthesis polypeptides and have a reduced expression of one or more GA20 or GA3 oxidase genes. Also provided are methods for producing the modified, transgenic, or genome edited/mutated corn plants.

  • Patent number: 11692182
    Abstract: Provided herein are systems, methods, and compositions for the modification of target DNA sequences. More particularly, systems, methods, and compositions for cleaving a target DNA in eukaryotic cells with a guide RNA capable of hybridizing with a target sequence and an RNA-guided DNA nuclease are provided. Also provided are vectors and vector systems which encode one or more components of a CRISPR complex, as well as methods for the design and use of such vectors. Also provided are methods for identifying and validating novel CRISPR systems.

  • Publication number: 20190185877
    Abstract: The disclosure provides polynucleotide molecules encoding novel defensins conferring increased pest tolerance and/or pesticidal activity when expressed in a plant, and recombinant DNA constructs and vectors comprising these molecules. Methods of making transgenic plants comprising recombinant defensin-encoding polynucleotide molecules and constructs, and transgenic plants, plant parts and seeds produced by these methods are provided. Compositions comprising one or more novel defensins of the disclosure are also provided having pesticidal and/or anti-microbial activity, as well as methods of their use.

  • Publication number: 20160060648
    Abstract: This invention provides transgenic plant cells with recombinant DNA for expression of Arabidopsis thaliana heat stress transcription factor A-2, which is useful for imparting enhanced agronomic traits) to transgenic crop plants. This invention also provides transgenic plants and progeny seed comprising the transgenic plant cells where the plants are selected for having an enhanced trait selected from the group of traits consisting of enhanced water use efficiency, enhanced cold tolerance, increased yield, enhanced nitrogen use efficiency, enhanced seed protein and enhanced seed oil. Also disclosed are methods for manufacturing transgenic seed and plants with enhanced trait.
