5506099 Method for characterizing insecticidal properties of unknown Bacillus strains
PATENT ABSTRACTS

milder flavor than typical red winter wheats; is resistant to sprouting in the head; is low intensity light tolerant, is hardy, resistant to insect infestations and other diseases, and may servive drought and winter chill conditions; may readily be cultivated in regions of the U.S. typically reserved for red wheat production; and yields commercially valuable brans in addition to flour extracts. This invention relates to the seeds of the G1323 variety, the wheat crops planted therefrom, and the hybrid wheat seeds and plants produced by crossing the G1323 variety with itself or another wheat variety.

GENES
Fischhoff David; Perlak Frederick J Webster Groves, MO, UNITED STATES assigned to Monsanto Company A method for modifying structural gene sequences to enhance the expression of the protein product is disclosed. Also disclosed are novel structural genes which encode insecticidal proteins of B.t.k. HD-1, B.t.k. HD-73, B.t. tenebrionis, B.t. entomocidus, 2 protein of B.t.k. HD-I, and the coat protein of potato leaf roll virus.
Bacterial strains can be reproducibly isolated from soil that are root-colonizing and directly promote plant development. For example, strains of soil bacteria are provided that are good root colonizers and that promote plant growth under gnotobiotic conditions.

conifer callus, comprising culturing somatic tissue capable of growth derived from a conifer so as to form non-embryogenic callus and then culturing the non-embryogenic callus in the presence of a nurse culture so as to produce embryogenic callus. Embryogenic callus derived in this way can be used to produced plantlets by known techniques.

Cockroaches are common house pests, and they create problems in hospitals, the food industry and in agriculture. According to the subject invention, activated toxins of Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis (B.t.i.) are used to control cockroaches. In one embodiment, the subject invention also concerns the use of B.t. PS123Dl to control cockroaches. A truncated form of a toxin obtained from PSl23Dl having particular activity to cockroaches is also claimed for use in controlling the pest.

on callus medium with excellent results. Root and shoot propagation may be obtained from established guard cell callus. With the establishment of roots and shoots, an entire plant may be regenerated from its guard cells. Guard cells may also be cultured for transplant gene extraction as a gene donor used to alter the characteristics of the recipient plant.
