The present disclosure provides DNA molecules and constructs, including their nucleotide sequences, useful for expressing proteins in plants to promote formation of nodule-like structures in the presence of Rhizobia. The present disclosure also provides DNA molecules and constructs, including their nucleotide sequences, useful for expressing proteins in plants to increase drought resistance. The present disclosure also provides plants and plant cells transgenic plants, plant cells, plant parts, seeds, and commodity products comprising the DNA molecules, along with methods of their use.

This disclosure relates to methods and compositions with enhanced levels of one or more tyramine containing hydroxycinnamic acid amides. Also disclosed herein are methods for producing a consumable product with enhanced levels of a tyramine containing hydroxycinnamic acid amide. Some embodiments relate to a composition enriched with a tyramine containing hydroxycinnamic acid.

Compositions and methods for efficiently producing and delivering double stranded RNA (dsRNA) are provided. Vector constructs useful for in vitro and in vivo expression of dsRNA are described. Also described are cell expression systems for efficient and cost-effective production of dsRNA in living cells and methods and compositions for providing the expressed dsRNA to target organisms. The described compositions and methods can be used to produce RNA molecules for screening or other uses, and to amplify RNA sequences for analysis.

A new and distinct variety of ‘C. unshiu Marc. cv. Miyagawa-wase’, plant named ‘Jedae’, this new variety Citrus plant is an early-maturing satsuma mandarin reproduced and propagated asexually, and characterized by i) rough peel, ii) vertical corrugation from fruit stalk which results in uneven outer appearance of fruit, and iii) higher flavonoid content in the fruit, compared to ‘Miyagawa-wase’.

The present invention relates to systems and methods for screening natural products such as secondary metabolites produced by engineered microbial strains.

Non-toxigenic fungal strains, and methods of making and use thereof, are provided and have utility as endophytes in forage crops, and as strains that can outcompete toxigenic strains in forage and food crops.

The present invention relates to a method for producing oats having high-content avenanthramides using elicitors.
