A method for in-planta high throughput evaluation of endogenous genetic regulatory elements of a crop plant, obtaining a nucleic acid encoding a native regulatory element of a trait-related gene, introducing one or more genetic changes in each of a plurality of copies of the native regulatory element, introducing the genetic library into model plants, utilizing high throughput transformation, screening the transformed model plants, and identifying the one or more genetic changes in the altered regulatory element of the selected model plant.

Methods of optimizing gene expression in plant

The present invention discloses a method for screening for and identifying a desirable plant improving trait, said method comprises steps of: (a) obtaining genetic material from a sampling of a predefined source and (b) constructing an expression library from said genetic material. The aforementioned method further comprises steps of: (c) producing plants transformed with said expression library at a transformation efficiency of at least 0.05%-30%, representing at least 10-10trangenes; (d) screening for transformed plants expressing said desirable trait; and (e) identifying said transgene of said transformed plants expressing said desirable trait.

Methods for improving traits in plants

dsRNA for preventing, mitigating and/or treating infestation of a plant with red palm weevil (), the dsRNA comprising a polynucleotide sequence which is about 85% to about 100% complementary to a segment of a target gene of the red palm weevil, wherein ingestion of the dsRNA polynucleotide by the red palm weevil results in mortality and/or stunting thereof.

Compositions and methods for mitigating pest infestation

The present invention discloses a method for screening for and identifying a desirable plant improving trait, said method comprises steps of: (a) obtaining genetic material from a sampling of a predefined source and (b) constructing an expression library from said genetic material. The aforementioned method further comprises steps of: (c) producing plants transformed with said expression library at a transformation efficiency of at least 0.05%-30%, representing at least 10-10transgenes; (d) screening for transformed plants expressing said desirable trait; and (e) identifying said transgene of said transformed plants expressing said desirable trait.

A plant containing a nucleic acid sequence encoding a protein conferring resistance to a herbicide including one or more HPPD inhibitors, wherein the nucleic acid sequence encodes for a modified and/or exogenous HPPD enzyme.

Compositions and methods for controlling plant growth

Embodiments of the disclosure relate to dosage forms intended for smoking, vaporization and/or inhalation and to methods for the preparations thereof.

Dosage form for vaporization and smoking

Compositions and methods for mitigating pest infestation with

The present invention relates to polynucleotides and polypeptides associated with increased resistance of plants towards pathogenic fungi of the genus, and fungi related thereto, particularly towards fungi inducing Sigatoka disease complex and fungi inducing other diseases in banana and additionalplant spices; to use thereof for controlling plant disease associated with the fungal pathogens; and to the production of genetically engineered plants having increased resistance to the pathogenic fungi.

Compositions and methods conferring resistance to fungal diseases

The invention relates to methods and compositions for increasing resistance or tolerance to a nematode plant pest in a plant or part thereof. Nucleotide sequences that confer resistance or tolerance to nematode plant pests when expressed in a plant are provided as well as compositions comprising the polypeptides encoded by the nucleotide sequences, and transgenic plants and parts thereof comprising the nucleotide sequences.
