The present invention provides methods and kits for identifyingplant material using genetic markers. The methods may be used to determine whether a sample containsplant material or to genotype anplant.

Assay for detecting palmer amaranth DNA in individual and mixed samples

This document provides materials and methods for generating oilseed (e.g., pennycress) plants that having low levels of erucic acid. For example, oilseed plants having reduced expression levels of one or more polypeptides involved in erucic acid metabolism (e.g., fatty acid elongase 1 (FAE1)), as well as materials and methods for making and using oilseed plants having low levels of erucic acid are provided.

Plants having increased oil quality

This document relates to materials and methods for generating early flowering oilseed (e.g., pennycress) plants. For example, oilseed plants (e.g., modified oilseed plants) having one or more modifications in a polypeptide involved in early flowering (e.g., early flowering six (ELF6)), as well as materials and methods for making and using early flowering oilseed plants are provided.
