    摘要: Increased expression of heterologous proteins in a plant is achieved by introducing the nucleotide sequence encoding the heterologous protein into a plant that has high oil seed content compared to low oil seed and/or is introduced into a plant having reduced alcohol soluble proteins in the endosperm. The nucleotide sequence may be introduced by direct transformation into the plant, or by direct transformation into another plant, and crossing with the high oil plant or plant have reduced levels of alcohol soluble protein in the endosperm. Further, the nucleotide sequences may be introduced into one or both of the high oil plant and the plant having reduced levels of alcohol soluble proteins, and the plants may be crossed to result in a progeny having even further increased expression levels of the heterologous protein.

    摘要: Expression of recombinant polysaccharide degrading enzymes in plants is described. In one embodiment, expression of the enzyme is preferentially directed to the seed of the plant. Expression may also be preferentially targeted to specific locations within the plant cell. Expression of cellulases in corn is shown. The result is the capacity to produce polysaccharide degrading enzymes in plants at commercially acceptable levels in a reliable manner. Methods of using same in production of ethanol is also described, including use of the plant-produced enzymes in the ethanol production process.

    摘要: Production of proteases in plants is set forth, whereby heterologous DNA encoding the protease is introduced into the plant and expression of the protein achieved. By such methods, expression is achieved in plants wherein the plant cell is not damaged, the protein can be recovered without contamination by other proteases, and can be expressed at levels such that commercial production of the enzyme is obtained. Expression levels can be at 0.1% of total soluble protein of the plant, or higher.

    摘要: An antenna array system provides simultaneous 360° coverage and includes Butler matrix beam forming networks connected to an antenna array, which includes narrow and/or broadband elements, and multiple transmitters, receivers, or transceivers to allow for 360° transmission and/or reception. The antenna array system can provide multiple beams, such as without limitation 8 or 16 beams, which can vary in beam crossing and/or overlap to provide simultaneous 360° coverage. An antenna array system includes a plurality of antenna elements configured in an array, a first Butler matrix operatively coupled to the plurality of antenna elements, and a second Butler matrix operatively coupled to the first Butler matrix. A method of providing simultaneous 360° coverage includes configuring a plurality of antenna elements in an array, coupling a first Butler matrix operatively to the plurality of antenna elements, and coupling a second Butler matrix operatively to the first Butler matrix.

    摘要: An antenna array includes a plurality of antenna elements coupled in a common area and extending radially outward from the common area. At least one of the plurality of antenna elements includes a first antenna portion and a second antenna portion arranged in a configuration such that a gap is formed between the first antenna portion and the second antenna portion. The gap includes first spacing associated with a first operating frequency and a first operating wavelength, and a second spacing associated with a second operating frequency and a second operating wavelength. A proportion of the first spacing to the first wavelength is substantially equal to a proportion of the second spacing to the second wavelength, thereby providing a constant beamwidth over an operating frequency band. A method of arranging a plurality of antenna elements in an antenna array is also disclosed.
