  • PLANT PATHOGENESIS-RELATED PROTEIN PROMOTER FOR TRANSGENE EXPRESSION
    Publication number: 20200299708
    Abstract: This disclosure concerns compositions and methods for promoting transcription of a nucleotide sequence in a plant or plant cell, employing a promoter from a Zea mays PR1 gene. Some embodiments relate to a promoter or a 5? UTR from a Zea mays PR1 gene that functions in plants to promote transcription of operably linked nucleotide sequences. Other embodiments relate to a 3? UTR or a terminator from a Zea mays PR1 gene that functions in plants to promote transcription of operably linked nucleotide sequences.

  • GENETIC LOCI ASSOCIATED WITH CULTURE AND TRANSFORMATION IN MAIZE
    Publication number: 20170303486
    Abstract: This invention relates to methods for identifying maize plants that having increased culturability and/or transformability. The methods use molecular markers to identify and to select plants with increased culturability and/or transformability or to identify and deselect plants with decreased culturability and/or transformability. Maize plants generated by the methods of the invention are also a feature of the invention.
