  • Molecular methods of hybrid seed production
    Patent number: 6737560
    Abstract: A process is described for producing fertile hybrid seed or hybrid seed comprising fertile and sterile seed using male-sterile plants created by employing molecular techniques to manipulate anti-sense gene and other genes that are capable of controlling the production of fertile pollen in plants. Said plants are functionally male-sterile plants with pollen from male-fertile plants. Hybrid seed production is simplified and improved by this invention and can be extended to plant crop species for which commercially acceptable hybrid seed production methods are not currently available.

  • Raphanus with increased anthocyanin levels
    Patent number: 6686517
    Abstract: The present invention relates to plants of the genus Raphanus containing increased levels of anthocyanins. In particular the edible sprouts and turnips of the Raphanus plants contain high levels of anthocyanins and thereby provide health-promoting effects. The anthocyanins in the Raphanus plants are present at a level of at least 100 nmol per gram of fresh weight and have an absorbance maximum at a wavelength in the range of 515 to 550 nm. The invention also provides methods for growing the Raphanus plants as purple sprouts, both in the form of alfalfa-type sprouts as well as in the form of two-leafed plantlets, referred to as cress or micro-vegetables. The invention further provides methods for producing anthocyanins based on growing the Raphanus plants and isolating anthocyanins therefrom.

  • Method for predicting fiber length using QTL's and molecular markers
    Patent number: 6670524
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel method for the prediction of fiber length and the selection of superior trees using genetic marker loci. The method comprises comparing genotypic survey data to phenotypic data collected from the same trees used to create the genotypic survey and identifying particular genetic marker loci or quantitative trait loci (QTL's) that are associated with fiber length. The method allows superior trees to be identified, from both plantations and natural populations, and selected for in tree improvement breeding programs by genotyping with identified genetic marker loci.
