Means and Methods for Improved Regeneration - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240294931 titled 'Means and Methods for Improved Regeneration
Simplified Explanation: The patent application relates to enhancing plant regeneration through the modulation of gene expression in plant cells using the ERF and PAT1 transcription factor complex.
- Plant genetic engineering for improved regeneration competence
- Modulation of gene expression in plant cells
- Utilization of ERF and PAT1 transcription factors
- Increased regeneration in plant cells
- Ethylene response factor (ERF) and phytochrome A signal transduction 1 (PAT1) complex activity
Potential Applications: 1. Agriculture: Enhancing crop yields through improved plant regeneration. 2. Horticulture: Facilitating the growth and development of ornamental plants. 3. Research: Providing a tool for studying gene expression and regeneration in plants.
Problems Solved: 1. Low regeneration rates in plant cells. 2. Inefficient gene expression modulation for plant regeneration. 3. Limited understanding of the role of ERF and PAT1 in plant regeneration.
Benefits: 1. Increased plant regeneration efficiency. 2. Enhanced crop productivity. 3. Accelerated research in plant genetic engineering.
Commercial Applications: Enhancing plant regeneration technology for agricultural and horticultural industries.
Questions about Plant Regeneration Technology: 1. How does the modulation of gene expression impact plant regeneration? 2. What are the potential long-term effects of using ERF and PAT1 transcription factors in plant genetic engineering?
