High Protein Soybean Mutants Obtained Through Mutagenesis
This technology is a method to increase protein content in soybeans using fast neutron mutagenesis. Researchers investigated the effects on soybean seed composition and gene expression encountered in transgenically modified and mutagenized crops and found several lines that germinated well, had no apparent agronomic issues, and continually produced...

Engineering High Protein Content Soybeans
This invention is an enabling technology to create enhanced value soybean seeds with higher proportional seed protein content.
Background:
Soybeans are the primary global source of plant-source protein. About 70% of the global protein input for animal feed is obtained from soybean. The soybean industry has a strategic goal of increasing seed protein...

Enhancing the Sugar, Starch, and Cellulose Content in Plants
This technology comprises an approach to “fool” the whole plant or targeted tissues of the plant to perceive low nitrogen status. The goal is to induce the plant to remodel its growth into increasing the ratio of carbon to nitrogen via reprogrammed metabolism. By genetically manipulating the plant’s perception of nitrogen status, and...
