Low Inoculum, Long Co-Culture Agrobacterium-Mediated Transformation of Plants
TS-031170 — A method developed at The Ohio State University gives tremendous improvements in transformation rates of plant tissues using low inoculation levels of Agrobacterium, coupled with long co-culture periods of the bacterium with plant tissue.
Most plant biotechnology laboratories utilize Agrobacterium for production of transgenic plants, and most of the transgenic plants that are in farmer's fields today were generated using Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. Although production of transgenic crop plants is now routine and is o…

Use of Soybean Elongation Factor 1-alpha Promoters for High Levels of Gene Expression
TS-015301 — Three soybean promoters that regulate different elongation factor 1 alpha genes and have attributes that contribute to high levels of gene expression
Researchers have isolated and characterized three novel EF1 alpha promoter sequences that are different from other disclosed sequences. The current standard is to use viral promoters, but these require additional regulatory considerations for commercialization. Therefore, there is a need for high …

Sun Locus for Optimizing Tomato Shape
TS-014845 — Discovery of the DNA sequence of the sun locus responsible for determining fruit shape, enabling breeders to rapidly introgress the locus via classical crosses in processing, fresh market, and specialty tomato varieties
Tomato processing is critical in the production of mass produced tomato pastes, tomato sauces, tomato juices, and ketchups among other products. Elongated or square tomatoes are highly sought out for processing needs as this shape of tomato will not roll off conveyor belts and is more structurally…
