The present invention describes a non-transgenic approach to produce truncated glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) genes and the corresponding truncated gene product in plants. More particularly, the invention relates to the removal of the calcium-calmodulin binding domain (CaM-BD) from plant GADs using site-directed mutagenesis or gene-editing techniques. The removal of the CaM-BD from plant GADS results in an active GAD enzyme that is not regulated by the CaM-BD, which increases gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA) production in plant cells, organs or whole plants. Non-transgenic plants with truncated GAD have agronomic benefits, including increased GABA, biomass, yield, sugar, and tolerance to abiotic and biotic stressors. In addition, GABA from plants could be used as nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, or therapeutic compounds or as a supplement in animal feed or for animal feed or as an enhancer for plant growth or yield.

A new and distinct prunus variety used as a rootstock that exhibits desirable disease resistance and induces a high yield of large fruits for grafted varieties.

Fukumurasaki is a new variety of sweet potato plant bred by crossbreeding variety Kyukei255 and Purple Sweet Lord. The plant may be used, e.g., for cultivation of root tubers for consumption. The steamed flesh of Fukumurasaki has a purple color, high sugar content, medium to viscous flesh quality, and excellent taste.

Provided herein are hybrid True Potato Seeds (TPS). Also provided herein are potato plants grown from the present hybrid True Potato Seeds and the potato tubers produced by these plants. Also provided herein is use of the present potato tubers for vegetative propagation thereof and to the use of the present potato tubers as seed potato for producing potato tubers for consumption and the food processing industry. Specifically, provided herein are hybrid True Potato Seed (TPS), wherein the seed is tetraploid and is produced as an F1 of a cross between a tetraploid male potato line and a tetraploid female potato line and preferably to hybrid True Potato Seed (TPS) wherein said tetraploid male potato line and said tetraploid female potato line have a sufficient degree of genetic and phenotypic uniformity to yield, as F1, hybrid True Potato Seed (TPS).
