Abstract: A novel bacteria strain Bacillus velezensis ABN1001 was deposited at the International Depositary Authority of Canada. The bacteria, or mutants thereof, or metabolites produced by the bacteria, can be used in compositions for controlling plant disease, treating plant disease, and/or promoting plant growth.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition comprising a biologically pure culture of Bacillus spp. strain NRRL B-67746 and mutants of that strain having all the identifying characteristics of the strain. The present invention also provides a method of promoting plant growth, wherein the method comprises applying such strain or mutants to the plant, to a part of the plant and/or to a locus of the plant.

Abstract: Use of augmented reality to provide a real-time two-dimensional representation of medical imaging data to a user in a three-dimensional space. An augmented reality system is discussed that may provide a single stage processing for video data ingestion directly from a video data output of a medical imaging device. In turn, latency in the resulting video data presented to the user via an augmented reality display may be reduced. The augmented reality system may also allow for a high degree of control over the virtual position, rotation, size, and/or opacity of the two-dimensional representation of the video data in the three-dimensional space associated with the augmented reality system.

Abstract: Disclosed are compositions that include a plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and an insecticide. The disclosed compositions may be formulated as incoculants for promoting growth and/or health in plants. The disclosed compositions may be administered to a plant in order to increase tolerance to stress caused by root-feeding pests and/or drought and may include additional components such as fertilizers.
