Exemplary systems and methods are disclosed for allocating resources in a breeding pipeline to multiple origins. One exemplary method includes accessing a data structure including data representative of multiple origins, in which the data includes, for each of the multiple origins, a trait performance expression or genotypic component information. The exemplary method further includes determining a resource allocation, which allocates n resources among the multiple origins based on a probability associated with the trait performance expressions and/or the genotypic components for the origins, and then allocating the n resources in the breeding pipeline for the multiple origins, based on the determined resource allocation.

A method, a container, and a planting device are provided for improving seedling emergence from seeds through soil and improving yield of plants in a field. The method includes selectively planting two seeds next to one another within the soil to provide sufficient emergence energy so the seedlings emerge together through the soil. One of the seedlings is then selectively destroyed to provide a desired spacing between plants in the field. A capsule is provided to contain plantable agricultural products. The capsule enables uniform and consistent planting plantable agricultural products, enables close proximity planting of multiple plantable agricultural products next to one another, and enables uniform and consistent engagement and dispensing of the seeds by planting equipment. A planting device, defined by a planter plate, is designed to consistently and uniformly plant the capsules containing agricultural products within the field.

The present invention provides breeding methods and compositions to enhance the germplasm of a plant by the use of direct nucleic acid sequence information. The methods describe the identification and accumulation of preferred nucleic acid sequences in the germplasm of a breeding population of plants.

The present disclosure relates generally to methods useful to the production of cannabis plants, including methods for determining the sex of a cannabis plant, methods for determining the developmental stage of a female cannabis plant inflorescence, methods for monitoring the development of female cannabis plant inflorescence, methods for standardising the harvesting of female cannabis plants, methods for selecting a female cannabis plant for harvest and methods for selecting a hypoallergenic cannabis plant.

Disclosed herein are methods for identifying amino acid residues of NLRs that are likely involved in pathogen immunity. Also disclosed are methods for modifying plant immunity which comprise modifying (e.g., substituting, deleting, or adding an amino acid before or after) one or more of the amino acid residues that have been identified as being likely involved in pathogen immunity.

The invention generally relates to methods of screening a sample for cannabinoids.

This technology relates in part to methods of identifying plant cultivars based on the terpene synthase genes that are identified and/or quantified (e.g., copy number, ploidy) in the cultivars. The methods provided herein permit plant cultivars with desired characteristics/phenotypes, e.g., a desired terpene production profile, to be selected for use in various applications, such as agriculture (e.g., selecting cultivars for breeding desired characteristics and/or lineages) and medicine (e.g., therapeutic activity).
