20080313774 | Modification of lignin biosynthesis - The present invention relates to the modification of lignin biosynthesis in plants and, more particularly, to enzymes involved in the lignin biosynthetic pathway and nucleic acids encoding such enzymes. | 12-18-2008 |
20090069545 | Defensin- specific antibodies - The present invention provides nucleic acid molecules derived from | 03-12-2009 |
20090083880 | MODIFIED PLANT DEFENSIN - The invention herein includes a general method for reducing or eliminating a toxic effect of transgenic defensin expression in a host plant. The invention also includes a method of modifying a nucleic acid encoding a defensin, a nucleic acid modified thereby and a modified defensin encoded by the modified nucleic acid sequence. The invention also includes a transgenic plant containing and expressing the modified defensin-coding nucleic acid sequence, the plant exhibiting reduced or eliminated toxic effects of defensin, compared with otherwise comparable transgenic plants expressing an unmodified defensin. The modified defensin is termed a chimeric defensin having a mature defensin domain of a first plant defensin combined with a C-terminal propeptide domain of a second plant defensin or a vacuolar translocation peptide. | 03-26-2009 |
20090188010 | Insect Chymotrypsin and Inhibitors Thereof - The present invention relates generally to a novel chymotrypsin that exhibits resistance to a plant serine proteinase inhibitor. More particularly, the present invention provides a chymotrypsin which is up-regulated in the gut of | 07-23-2009 |
20100095408 | Anti-Pathogen Systems - Provided is a system for protecting plants from attack by pests, including pathogens such as fungi. Specifically, a plant defensin is provided in conjunction with a protease inhibitor protects a plant from pest attack or reduces severity of an attack. | 04-15-2010 |
20100218280 | Defensin-Encoding Nucleic Acid Molecules Derived From Nicotiana Alata, Uses Therefor and Transgenic Plants Comprising Same - The present invention provides nucleic acid molecules derived from | 08-26-2010 |
20100287660 | Modification of Lignin Biosynthesis Via Sense Suppression - The present invention relates to the modification of lignin biosynthesis in plants, to enzymes involved in the lignin biosynthetic pathway and nucleic acids encoding such enzymes and, more particularly, to methods of modifying lignin biosynthesis via sense suppression and to related nucleic acids and constructs. | 11-11-2010 |
