  • Patent number: 6284945
    Abstract: Protoplasts which regenerate reproducibly in a short time to normal, fertile plants can be regenerated from an auxin-autotrophic genotype of Zea mays (L.). Starting from immature embryos on hormone-free media, an auxin-autotrophic, embryogenic callus is formed on the shoot basis of the seedlings, which callus retains its embryogenic potential over a substantial period of time when subcultured on hormone-free medium. In addition to fully-developed embryos, adventitious embryos are also formed under suitable culture conditions (6-9% of sucrose in the medium). When the sucrose content is reduced to 2-3% and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid is added, soft, granular calli are formed which consist of embryogenic cell aggregates (type II callus). After subculturing the type II callus in the form of a cell suspension culture, totipotent protoplasts can be isolated. From these protoplasts, the maize plants according to the invention are regenerated.

  • Patent number: 6215045
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the use of genetic engineering to induce developmental regulation in anther tissue of plants, and more particularly to induce nuclear male sterility, and to genetic sequences useful for same. More particularly, the present invention relates to the identification of a genomic clone and promoter capable of tissue- and development-specific expression which provides a means of tissue and developmental regulation in plants and more specifically a means of producing nuclear male sterile plants. Even more particularly, the present invention provides a genomic clone having a nucleotide sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO. 1 or homologous sequences thereof such as the nucleotide sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO. 3.

  • Patent number: 6198026
    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.
