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...

Elimination of Aflatoxin via Aflatoxin-Degrading Enzyme Expression in Crops
This technology involves the expression of an aflatoxin-degrading enzyme in maize kernels. The enzyme was engineered to target the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and become expressed using an embryo-specific promoter in the transgenic maize. It can be used in combination with an RNAi suppression method, HIGS, to protect maize during pre-harvest conditions.
Background:
It...

Aflatoxin-Free Crops
This patented invention is a method of eliminating or substantially reducing aflatoxin in crops by inhibiting Aspergillus fungus, a biosynthetic precursor to aflatoxin. By inhibiting the primary elements of aflatoxin’s biosynthetic pathway, aflatoxin can be eliminated altogether.
Background:
The inventor has conducted successful experiments...
