  • Publication number: 20230036103
    Abstract: Provided herein are regulatory elements, such as promoters and terminators, derived or obtained from various Glycine species. Such regulatory elements are useful for expression cassettes for plants, such as soybean. Such expression cassettes generally contain a promoter and terminator sequence to control expression of each coding sequence. For certain traits, such as insect resistance and herbicide tolerance, it may be desirable to use promoters and terminators with medium to high constitutive expression.

  • Publication number: 20220356481
    Abstract: The invention provides methods for improving transformation efficiency of a plant. In some aspects, the methods according to the invention comprise the use of a WOX protein or WOX coding sequence, e.g., a nucleic acid encoding the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 143 or a nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 85% identity with the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 143. Also provided are BABYBOOM coding sequences and methods of use thereof in improving transformation efficiency.

  • Patent number: 9000263
    Abstract: This invention relates to newly identified polynucleotides and polypeptides in the phytic acid biosynthetic pathways, variants and derivatives of the same; methods for making the polynucleotides, polypeptides, variants, derivatives and antagonists. In particular, the invention relates to polynucleotides encoding inositol polyphosphate 2-kinase (IPP2-K) and polypeptides exhibiting such activity to modulate the phytic acid biosynthesis in such a way as to decrease phytic acid and/or increase the non-phytic acid phosphorous, especially in corn or soy animal feedstuffs.

  • Patent number: 8521409
    Abstract: The invention discloses a continuous driving mileage calculation control system and a calculation control method. The calculation control system comprises an MCU microprocessor, a continuous driving mileage digital display, a vehicle speed signal sampling circuit, an instantaneous fuel consumption signal sampling circuit and a fuel signal sampling circuit. According to the received instantaneous fuel consumption signal and the vehicle speed signal, the MCU microprocessor calculates the average fuel consumption, and then calculates the continuous driving mileage according to the average fuel consumption and the current remaining fuel amount. The digital display is used for displaying the continuous driving mileage.
