Abstract:
Compositions and methods are provided for modifying a nucleotide sequence in the genome of a plant cell, without the use of a selectable marker. The methods and compositions employ a guide polynucleotide/Cas endonuclease system to make a double strand break in a target site located in a nucleotide sequence and plant cells are obtained without the use of a selectable marker, and to provide an effective system for modifying target sites within the genome of a plant, plant cell or seed. Compositions and methods are also provided for producing a plant cell, callus tissue or plant having a modified nucleotide sequence in its genome, without the use of a selectable marker.
Abstract:
Compositions and methods are provided for the use of pollen-inhibitor genes and/or color marker genes in accelerated trait introgression. Compositions and methods are also provided for introducing a pollen-inhibitor gene and/or a color marker gene in close proximity to a trait locus of interest. Breeding methods and methods for selecting plants comprising a trait locus of interest in close proximity to at least one pollen-inhibitor gene and/ or color marker gene are also disclosed. The methods and compositions employ at least one pollen-inhibitor gene and /or color marker gene to provide an effective system for accelerated trait introgression in the genome of a plant.
Abstract:
The present invention is related to a method for the transformation of sugar beet protoplasts comprising the steps of: – obtaining protoplasts from stomatal guard cells isolated from a sugar beet plant, - transforming the protoplasts with a nucleic acid construct comprising a nucleotide sequence of interest and a selection marker sequence, - applying to an in vitro culture of said protoplasts, one or more ALS inhibitors at a concentration that is lethal to the in vitro culture of the protoplasts and - regenerating sugar beet plants from the surviving protoplasts having integrated the nucleic acid construct comprising the sequence of interest and the selection marker sequence, wherein the selectionmarker sequence is the mutated BvALS113 sequence carrying in its sequence a mutation at amino acid 113 position from Alanine to Tyrosine.
Abstract:
Provided is a method for enhancing one or more yield-related traits in a plant by modulating expression in the plant of a nucleic acid encoding an ANAC055(Arabidopsis No Apical Meristem, Arabidopsis Transcription Factor, Cup-shaped Cotyledon) polypeptide. Also provided are plants having modulated expression of a nucleic acid encoding an ANAC055 polypeptide, which plants have one or more enhanced yield-related traits compared with control plants. Further provided are hitherto unknown ANAC055-encoding nucleic acids, and constructs comprising the same, useful in performing the method.
Abstract:
This disclosure provides transgenic plants having enhanced traits such as increased yield, increased nitrogen use efficiency and enhanced drought tolerance; propagules, progeny and field crops of such transgenic plants; and methods of making and using such transgenic plants. This disclosure also provides methods of producing seed from such transgenic plants, growing such seed and selecting progeny plants with enhanced traits. Also disclosed are transgenic plants with altered phenotypes which are useful for screening and selecting transgenic events for the desired enhanced trait.

Abstract:
The invention provides seed and plants of tomato comprising transgenic event Bs2-X5 and progeny thereof comprising this transgenic event and uses of such seeds and plants in the production of tomato fruit. The invention thus relates to non-hybrid and hybrid plants, seeds, and tissue cultures of tomato comprising transgenic event Bs2-X5, and to methods for producing a tomato plant produced by crossing such plants with themselves or with another tomato plant, such as a plant of another genotype. The invention further relates to seeds and plants produced by such crossing. The invention further relates to parts of such plants, including the fruit and gametes of such plants.
