    Abstract: A seed treatment system having a central computerized data store, a user interface, and network connections from the data store to a plurality of retail facilities and a plurality of agricultural produce suppliers. Each retail facility having a seed treatment system configured to uniformly treat batches of seeds with any of a variety of precisely measured chemical formulations. The seed treatment apparatus having a treatment applicator coupled to a plurality of dispensing stations. Each dispensing stations having a pump in fluid communication with a container disposed on a scale. The pump and scale of each dispensing station coupled to a system controller. The system controller is coupled to the data store, configured to provide on-demand agricultural seed treatments to the applicator and chemical usage data from each station to the data store. The data store configured to provide centralized remote monitoring inventory control, supply chain monitoring, and container recycling compliance.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a fusion protein having a targeting sequence, exosporium protein, or exosporium protein fragment that targets the fusion protein to the exosporium of a recombinant Bacillus cereus family member and an enzyme having serine protease activity, wherein the enzyme having serine protease activity is from Bacillus firmus or is a variant of such enzyme. The present invention also provides a recombinant Bacillus cereus family member that expresses such fusion protein and exosporium fragments derived from such recombinant Bacillus cereus family member. Methods of using such recombinant Bacillus cereus family members or exosporium fragments derived therefrom for nematode control are also provided.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a method of enriching a lipopeptide in a microbial cell culture, the method comprising mixing an amphiphilic sulfonate and/or an amphiphilic sulfate with the cell culture to induce the formation of aggregates containing the lipopeptide, centrifuging the cell culture to generate a supernatant fraction and a pellet fraction, separating the pellet fraction from the supernatant fraction, and mixing the pellet fraction with a polyoxyethylene glycol alkyl ether to release the lipopeptide from the aggregates. Also provided is a method of purifying an exopolysaccharide from a microbial cell culture, the method comprising mixing an amphiphilic sulfonate and/or an amphiphilic sulfate with the cell culture to induce the formation of aggregates, centrifuging the cell culture to generate a supernatant fraction and a pellet fraction, separating the supernatant fraction from the pellet fraction, adding alcohol to the supernatant fraction to precipitate the exopolysaccharide; and removing the precipitated exopolysaccharide from the supernatant fraction.

    Abstract: Water-based formulations (EW) are provided containing no VOC's or alternatively are low in VOC's for wide area space spray to control mosquitoes, flies, and other public health pests. Application via ULV, these formulations have been observed to provide significantly superior control of pests when compared to competitive adulticides. The present formulations provide exceptional preservation of both droplet density in the spray cloud and droplet size as measured by volume mean diameter (VmD). The present formulations provide superior bio-efficacy as measured by both mortality and knockdown of target organisms. The present formulations provide superior biological control, droplet density, and droplet size when applied at concentrations 20-80× less than competitive formulations.

    Abstract: The soybean variety GLL0462 is disclosed. The invention relates to seeds, plants, plant cells, plant tissue, harvested products and soybean lint as well as to hybrid soybean plants and seeds obtained by repeatedly crossing plants of variety GLL0462 with other plants. The invention also relates to plants and varieties produced by the method of essential derivation from plants of GLL0462 and to plants of GLL0462 reproduced by vegetative methods, including but not limited to tissue culture of regenerable cells or tissue from GLL0462.
