  • Soybean resistant to cyst nematodes
    Patent number: 10294489
    Abstract: A transgenic soybean plant or parts thereof, resistant to soybean cyst nematodes, transformed to express Glyma18g02570, Glyma18g02580, or Glyma18g02590, or a variant thereof. Also provided is a method of making such a plant. Also provided is an artificial DNA construct encoding Glyma18g02570, Glyma18g02580, or Glyma18g02590, or a variant thereof.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 18, 2014
    Date of Patent: May 21, 2019
    Assignees: BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF SOUTHERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY, THE CURATORS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI
    Inventors: Khalid Meksem, Shiming Liu, Pramod Kaitheri Kandoth, Melissa G. Mitchum, David Lightfoot
  • SOYBEAN RESISTANT TO CYST NEMATODES
    Publication number: 20190037795
    Abstract: A transgenic soybean resistant to soybean cyst nematode (SCN), or parts thereof, including an artificial DNA construct encoding a serine hydroxymethyltransferase protein (e.g., GmSHMT).
    Type: Application
    Filed: August 9, 2018
    Publication date: February 7, 2019
    Applicants: Board of Trustees of Southern Illinois University, The Curators of the University of Missouri

  • Soybean resistant to cyst nematodes
    Patent number: 10070614
    Abstract: A transgenic soybean resistant to soybean cyst nematode (SCN), or parts thereof, including an artificial DNA construct encoding a serine hydroxymethyltransferase protein (e.g., GmSHMT). Also provided are GmSHMT alleles containing mutations R130P and Y358N along with research and breeding methods and compositions including such.
    Type: Grant

  • Genes implicated in resistance to soybean cyst nematode infection and methods of their use
    Patent number: 9371541
    Abstract: Genes whose expressions are up-regulated or down-regulated in plant roots in response to nematode infection are disclosed. These genes may play an important role in plant defense against SCN infection. Several nematode-inducible promoters have also been identified in plants, which may be used in nematode inducible gene expression construct. Expression of these SCN responsive genes may be manipulated to obtain SCN resistant lines.
