Patents by Inventor SHANGWU LIANG

SHANGWU LIANG has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Flowering time-regulating genes and related constructs and applications thereof
    Patent number: 10982225
    Abstract: Isolated polynucleotides and polypeptides, and recombinant DNA constructs useful for regulating plant heading date or flowering time are provided. Compositions (such as plants or seeds) comprising these recombinant DNA constructs, and methods utilizing these recombinant DNA constructs are also provided. The recombinant DNA constructs comprise a polynucleotide operably linked to a promoter that is functional in a plant, wherein said polynucleotides encode flowering time-regulating polypeptides.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 30, 2017
    Date of Patent: April 20, 2021
    Inventors: Guangwu Chen, Yang Gao, Shangwu Liang, Guihua Lu, Guanfan Mao, Chao Song, Xuguang Tan, Changgui Wang
  • Abiotic stress tolerant plants and methods
    Patent number: 10913954
    Abstract: Isolated polynucleotides and polypeptides, and recombinant DNA constructs are useful for conferring improved drought tolerance, and/or for regulating flowering time. Compositions (such as plants or seeds) comprise these recombinant DNA constructs; and methods utilize these recombinant DNA constructs. The recombinant DNA constructs comprise a polynucleotide operably linked to a promoter that is functional in a plant, wherein said polynucleotides encode drought tolerance polypeptides and/or flowering time-regulating polypeptide.
    Type: Grant
