20090165172 | METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR INCREASING BIOMASS IN GENETICALLY MODIFIED PERENNIALS USED FOR BIOFUELS - Genes can be introduced into plants that confer desirable traits such as, drought and stress tolerance, insect and pest resistance, as well as traits for enhancing biofuel production, such as increased vegetative biomass and prolonged vegetative growth. The development of reproductive structures diverts resources from vegetative growth resulting in lower biomass and fixed growing seasons. Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for generating controlled vegetative growth and prolonged growing seasons for the purpose of increasing biomass in plants used for biofuels. | 06-25-2009 |
20100031387 | PREVENTION OF TRANSGENE ESCAPE IN GENETICALLY MODIFIED PERENNIALS - Genes can be introduced into plants that confer desirable traits such as, drought and stress tolerance, insect and pest resistance, as well as environmental qualities such as phyto-remediation. However, possibility for transgene escape to wild and non-transformed species raises commercial and ecological concerns. Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for generating sterile perennial plants for the prevention of transgene escape. For example, sterile switchgrass can be produced using these methods, for example which can be used to produce biofuel. | 02-04-2010 |
20100122366 | DEVELOPMENT OF CONTROLLED TOTAL VEGETATIVE GROWTH FOR PREVENTION OF TRANSGENE ESCAPE FROM GENETICALLY MODIFIED PLANTS AND FOR ENHANCING BIOMASS PRODUCTION - Genes can be introduced into plants that confer desirable traits such as, drought and stress tolerance, insect and pest resistance, as well as environmental qualities such as phyto-remediation. However, possibility for transgene escape to wild and non-transformed species raises commercial and ecological concerns. Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for generating plants with total vegetative growth for the reduction, and in some examples prevention of, transgene escape. The same methods and compositions can also be used to increase biomass production in a plant. | 05-13-2010 |
20130024985 | MALE AND FEMALE STERILITY LINES USED TO MAKE HYBRIDS IN GENETICALLY MODIFIED PLANTS - A method is disclosed for producing a hybrid perennial plant system for plant breeding of co-sexual plants for increased yields and for having increased gene confinement capabilities. The method includes the steps of (a) contacting a first compatible perennial plant with a male vector, wherein the male vector comprises a SL expression cassette to create a plant line (A) with disrupted male development; (b) contacting a second compatible perennial plant with a female vector, wherein the female vector comprises a SL expression cassette to create a plant line (B) with disrupted female development; and (c) crossing plant line (A) with plant line (B) to produce the hybrid perennial plant having increased heterozygocity gene confinement. | 01-24-2013 |
20130310453 | GREEN GARLIC AND METHODS OF PRODUCTION - A new vegetable, referred to herein as green garlic, grown from garlic bulbils is disclosed. In particular examples, the green garlic is rich in one or more thiosulfinates. Methods of producing green garlic are also disclosed. In some examples, such methods permit year-round commercial production of green garlic. | 11-21-2013 |

20130221648 | FRAME SUPPORT, SUSPENSION STOP, AND METHOD OF IMPROVING A MOTOR VEHICLE - An apparatus, kit, and method for improving a motor vehicle. Embodiments include right and left frame supports, a cross beam, and two mounts for air bump stops, for instance, outboard of the vehicle frame. Damage to the frame can be prevented in severe suspension impacts and vehicle handling and performance can be improved both on and off road surfaces. Certain embodiments include impact pads clamped to the axle of the vehicle, hardware or bolts that attach components together or to the frame of the vehicle, or a combination thereof. Components can be configured to attach to the vehicle frame. Particular embodiments support the frame at the top, bottom, outboard side, or a combination thereof, and some frame supports have a channel portion, a hollow box portion, and two parallel gusset plates, for example. In some embodiments, the cross beam can fit between and attach to the gusset plates. | 08-29-2013 |

20080272720 | ACCURATE MOTOR SPEED CONTROL - A method of and system for controlling a brushless direct current (BLDC) motor includes providing with a lookup table a predetermined corresponding desired revolution time (DRT) for the BLDC motor for an ambient temperature. A Hall device is used to measure an actual revolution time (RT) of the BLDC motor. DRT and RT are compared to change duration of a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal in response to the comparison result. The PWM signal is applied to one of two BLDC motor windings. | 11-06-2008 |
20080309269 | MICROCONTROLLER INTERFACE WITH HALL ELEMENT - A device controller system incorporates an inexpensive Hall element to detect motion of a brushless DC motor. A magnet, which is part of a motor rotor, passes by the Hall element producing a Hall voltage each rotation. The Hall voltage is coupled through an interface port to a comparator within a process controller. A microprocessor within the process controller calculates a control response based on a comparator output signal. The interface port is rapidly configured to provide signals produced from the control response as output to device drivers on the same input-output pins that receive the Hall voltage. The device drivers produce a current through fan coils producing an update in the magnetic field of each motor phase which updates the speed of the fan according to programming within the process controller. Rapid configuring and reconfiguring of the interface port allows all necessary components of the controller system to be used with a single rotational commutation cycle. | 12-18-2008 |
