  • Sorghum Centromere Sequences and Minichromosomes
    Publication number: 20160115495
    Abstract: The invention is generally related to MCs containing sorghum centromere sequences. In addition, the invention provides for methods of generating plants transformed with these MCs. MCs with novel compositions and structures are used to transform plants cells which are in turn used to generate the plant. Methods for generating the plant include methods for delivering the MC into plant cell to transform the cell, methods for selecting the transformed cell, and methods for isolating plants transformed with the MC.

  • SUGARCANE CENTROMERE SEQUENCES AND MINICHROMOSOMES
    Publication number: 20160010098
    Abstract: The invention is generally related to Sugarcane mini-chromosomes and recombinant chromosomes containing Sugarcane centromere sequences. In addition, the invention provides for methods of generating Sugarcane plants transformed with these Sugarcane mini-chromosomes. Sugarcane mini-chromosomes with novel compositions and structures are used to transform Sugarcane cells which are in turn used to generate Sugarcane plants. Methods for generating Sugarcane plants include methods for delivering the Sugarcane mini-chromosomes into Sugarcane cell to transform the cell, methods for selecting the transformed cell, and methods for isolating Sugarcane plants transformed with the Sugarcane mini-chromosome or recombinant chromosome.
