Abstract: Described herein are methods for the efficient production of a heteromultimeric protein, such as a bispecific antibody. Heteromultimeric proteins may be capable of specifically binding to more than one target molecule or different epitopes on a single target molecule. The methods modulate parameters to improve assembly of the heteromultimeric proteins at higher yield and efficiency than otherwise possible. Also described are compositions comprising a hinge-containing polypeptide, such as a half-antibody.

Abstract: Methods for reducing leaf senescence in plants or portions of plants by treating them with methyl dihydrojasmonate are disclosed. The methyl dihydrojasmonate may be in the form of an aqueous foliar spray, which may also include additives such as wetting agents, adjuvants, emulsifiers, dispersants, spreaders, surfactants, anchorage, disintegrants, and plant nutrients.

Abstract: Methods of seed treatment with one or more jasmonates are described. One method comprises exposing a seed to a formulation containing methyl dihydrojasmonate (MDHJ) at an amount and duration effective for improving a germination characteristic of the seed. Another method comprises exposing a seed to a formulation containing MDHJ at an amount and duration effective for improving a stress tolerance characteristic of the seed. Seeds comprising an effective amount of MDHJ for improving a germination or stress tolerance characteristic are also described.
