  • Publication number: 20240150415
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to the field of molecular biology. Provided are novel genes that encode pesticidal proteins. These pesticidal proteins and the nucleic acid sequences that encode them are useful in preparing pesticidal formulations and in the production of transgenic pest-resistant plants. Methods to create or alter pesticidal proteins are provided for altered or enhanced pesticidal activity.
    Type: Application
    Filed: December 19, 2023
    Publication date: May 9, 2024
    Applicant: PIONEER HI-BRED INTERNATIONAL, INC.
    Inventors: ELLAINE ANNE MARIANO FOX, NAGA KISHORE KAKANI, KAY WALTER, TAKASHI YAMAMOTO, YI ZHENG

  • Publication number: 20220380418
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to insecticidal toxin resistance management and screening of novel insecticidal toxins. One embodiment relates to the isolation, characterization, compositions, and methods of use relating to polynucleotides encoding novel insecticidal toxin receptors and the polypeptides encoded thereby. The polynucleotides and polypeptides are useful in identifying or designing novel insecticidal toxin receptor ligands including novel insecticidal toxins.
