Publication number: 20230340508Abstract: Provided herein are promoters and related compositions and methods of use. Such promoters are useful for expression cassettes for plants, such as soybean. Such expression cassettes are useful, e.g., to drive expression of trait genes in plants, such as soybean. In some aspects, the disclosure provides an expression cassette comprising a promoter, a 5? UTR, and an intron.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 21, 2021Publication date: October 26, 2023Applicant: SYNGENTA CROP PROTECTION AGInventors: Zhongying Chen, Nan Zhou, Joseph Dallas Clarke, V, Qiudeng Que

Patent number: 9670499Abstract: Methods for introgressing an allele of interest of a locus associated with a yield trait into Zea mays germplasm are provided. In some embodiments, the methods include providing a Zea mays plant that contains an allele of interest of a locus associated with a yield trait, wherein the locus associated with the yield trait is identifiable by PCR amplification of a Zea mays nucleic acid with a pair of oligonucleotides primers as disclosed herein, and introgressing the allele of interest into Zea mays germplasm that lacks the allele. Also provided are methods for identifying Zea mays plants that contain at least one allele associated with improved yield, improved maize plants, elite Zea mays plants, biomass produced from improved Zea mays plants, isolated and purified genetic markers, and compositions that include an amplification primer pair capable of amplifying a Zea mays nucleic acid to generate a Zea mays marker amplicon.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2014Date of Patent: June 6, 2017Assignee: Syngenta Participations AGInventors: Daolong Wang, Librardo Andres Gutierrez-Rojas, Xi Chen, Joseph Dallas Clarke, V, Michael G.

Patent number: 9665255Abstract: A VCI (visual context indicator) color is assigned deterministically and proactively at runtime to user data contexts, and is not stored in the database, spreadsheet, or other context. VCI colors can be high contrast friendly colors. The same color is assigned to a given context each time the application runs unless the context's identifying property has changed. Color assignments are not made by users or by the application's designer, but are done instead by hashing from a context's identifying property into a VCI color palette containing, e.g., eight to sixteen colors. Unlike text-selection coloring, VCI coloring is based on the user data context's identifying property. The color assignment visually indicates context by displaying the context's name in the VCI color, or by displaying a graphical element in the VCI color near the context name. VCI color assignment also shows the occurrence and result of changes in user data context.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2014Date of Patent: May 30, 2017Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Zheng Mi, Nigel Christopher Wolters, Hua Wang, Jennifer Lee Beckmann, Joseph Dallas Milan, Steven Merlin Twitchell
