Abstract:
The Zea mays c.v. B73 Ubiquitin-1 (Z. mays c.v. B73 Ubi-1) promoter drives high levels of constitutive transgene expression in plants. Repeated use of the same Z. mays c.v. B73 Ubi-1 promoter in multi-gene constructs may also lead to gene silencing, thereby making transgenic products less efficacious. Provided are gene regulatory promoter elements, constructs, and methods for expressing a transgene in plant cells and/or plant tissues using gene regulatory elements from the Ubi-1 promoter of a different Zea species, Z. luxurians v2.

Abstract:
This invention relates to methods for identifying maize plants that having increased culturability and/or transformability. The methods use molecular markers to identify and to select plants with increased culturability and/or transformability or to identify and deselect plants with decreased culturability and/or transformability. Maize plants generated by the methods of the invention are also a feature of the invention.
Abstract:
An inbred corn line, designated 4691436, the plants and seeds of the inbred corn line 4691436, methods for producing a corn plant, either inbred or hybrid, produced by crossing the inbred corn line 4691436 with itself or with another corn plant, and hybrid corn seeds and plants produced by crossing the inbred line 4691436 with another corn line or plant and to methods for producing a corn plant containing in its genetic material one or more transgenes and to the transgenic corn plants produced by that method. This invention also relates to inbred corn lines derived from inbred corn line 4691436, to methods for producing other inbred corn lines derived from inbred corn line 4691436 and to the inbred corn lines derived by the use of those methods.
