20090089171 | METHOD FOR USING ENVIRONMENTAL CLASSIFICATION TO ASSIST IN FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT AND SERVICES - Managing risks of crop production can be performed by understanding the relative performance of different agricultural inputs under the same or similar environmental conditions. In addition, managing of crop production risks can be performed by understanding variations in the performance of the same agricultural inputs over a range of environmental conditions. By being able to describe and understand these variations in performance, decisions can be made which are consistent with overall business and/or production objectives and limit risk associated with variations in environmental conditions. In addition to producers there are other stakeholders in the crop production process, such as financial institutions, insurance providers, users of crops produced, and input suppliers. These and other stakeholders can provide financial incentives to producers for managing crop production risks through use of environmental classification and/or genotype-by-environment information. | 04-02-2009 |

20090170109 | CORN EVENT TC1507 AND METHODS FOR DETECTION THEREOF - The invention provides DNA compositions that relate to transgenic insect resistant maize plants. Also provided are assays for detecting the presence of the maize TC1507 event based on the DNA sequence of the recombinant construct inserted into the maize genome and the DNA sequences flanking the insertion site. Kits and conditions useful in conducting the assays are provided. | 07-02-2009 |
20090203042 | NOVEL BT TOXIN RECEPTORS FROM LEPIDOPTERAN INSECTS AND METHODS OF USE - The invention relates to Bt toxin resistance management. The invention particularly relates to the isolation and characterization of nucleic acid and polypeptides for a novel Bt toxin receptor. The nucleic acid and polypeptides are useful in identifying and designing novel Bt toxin receptor ligands including novel insecticidal toxins. | 08-13-2009 |
20100089176 | CORRELATING PUSH FORCE AND STALK VIBRATION TO A PLANT'S SUSCEPTIBILITY TO ROOT LODGING - The present device enables measurement of the susceptibility of corn plants to root lodging. The device is used to push over a corn stalk and the force used to push over the stalk, and the vibration of the stalk caused by the push are recorded. As material breaks in the stalk, an accelerometer, measures stalk vibration response to the breaking events; the data is then recorded to allow quantitative measurements of the susceptibility of corn plants to root lodging. This allows meaningful comparisons of various hybrids at early stages of hybrid evaluation and advancement. | 04-15-2010 |
20110083518 | Correlating Push Force and Stalk Vibration to a Plant's Susceptibility to Root Lodging, Stalk/Stem Lodging and Brittle Snap (Broken Stems or Stalks) - The present device enables measurement of the susceptibility of plants to root lodging, stalk or stem lodging and brittle snap (broken stems or stalks). The device is used to push on a plant stalk or stem and the force used to push over the stalk/stem, and the vibration of the stalk/stem caused by the push are recorded. As material breaks in the stalk/stem, an accelerometer, measures stalk/stem vibration response to the breaking events; the data is then recorded to allow quantitative measurements of the susceptibility of plants to root lodging, stalk or stem lodging and brittle snap (broken stems or stalks). This allows meaningful comparisons of various hybrids or varieties at early stages of evaluation and advancement. | 04-14-2011 |
