Publication number: 20240093219Abstract: Polynucleotides incorporated into nucleic acid constructs have been introduced into plants and were ectopically expressed. The encoded polypeptides of the invention have been shown to confer at least one regulatory activity and confer earlier flowering, longer floral organ retention, increased cold tolerance, greater tolerance to water deprivation, altered carbon-nitrogen balance sensing, increased low nitrogen tolerance, and/or increased tolerance to hyperosmotic stress as compared to a control plant.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 6, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Jose Luis Riechmann, Oliver J. Ratcliffe, T. Lynne Reuber, Katherine Krolikowski, Jacqueline E. Heard, Omaira Pineda, Cai-Zhong Jiang, Robert A. Creelman, Roderick W. Kumimoto, Paul S. Chomet

Publication number: 20220195506Abstract: This present disclosure provides methods and systems for measuring the concentration of multiple nucleic acid sequences in a sample. The nucleic acid sequences in the sample are simultaneously amplified, for example, using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in the presence of an array of nucleic acid probes. The amount of amplicon corresponding to the multiple nucleic acid sequences can be measured in real-time during or after each cycle using a real-time microarray. The measured amount of amplicon produced can be used to determine the original amount of the nucleic acid sequences in the sample. Also provided herein are biosensor arrays, systems and methods for affinity based assays that are able to simultaneously obtain high quality measurements of the binding characteristics of multiple analytes, and that are able to determine the amounts of those analytes in solution. The present disclosure also provides a fully integrated bioarray for detecting real-time characteristics of affinity based assays.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 22, 2021Publication date: June 23, 2022Applicant: California Institute of TechnologyInventors: Arjang Hassibi, Babak Hassibi, Haris Vikalo, Jose Luis Riechmann

Publication number: 20170218383Abstract: Transcription factor polynucleotides and polypeptides incorporated into nucleic acid constructs, including expression vectors, have been introduced into plants and were ectopically expressed. Transgenic plants transformed with many of these constructs have been shown to have increased tolerance to an abiotic stress (in some cases, to more than one abiotic stress), increased growth, and/or increased biomass. The abiotic stress may include, for example, salt, hyperosmotic stress, water deficit, heat, cold, drought, and/or low nutrient conditions.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 14, 2017Publication date: August 3, 2017Inventors: T.
