Also disclosed are methods of using herbicide resistance transformation events in plant breeding procedures. The invention further includes methods of ensuring plant seed purity.

According to the invention, there is provided seed and plants of the hybrid corn variety designated CH892315. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of the variety CH892315, and to methods for producing a corn plant produced by crossing a corn plant of variety CH892315 with itself or with another corn plant, such as a plant of another variety. The invention further relates to genetic complements of plants of variety CH892315.

The invention relates to methods for Rhizobia-mediated genetic transformation of plant cells, including soybean, canola, corn, and cotton cells. These include both VirD2-dependent and VirD2-independent methods. Bacterial species utilized include strains of Rhizobium sp., Sinorhizobium sp., and Mesorhizobium sp. Vectors for use in such transformation are also disclosed.

This invention relates to polynucleotide sequences encoding a gene that can confer resistance to at least one herbicide. It further relates to plants and seeds of plants carrying chimeric genes comprising said polynucleotide sequences, which enhance or confer resistance to at least one herbicide, and methods of making said plants and seeds. The invention further presents sequences that can be used as molecular markers that in turn can be used to identify the region of interest in corn lines resulting from new crosses and to quickly and efficiently select the best lines for breeding strategies by avoiding sensitive lines.

A novel hybrid maize variety designated 31D58 and seed, plants and plant parts thereof, produced by crossing Pioneer Hi-Bred International, Inc. proprietary inbred maize lines. Methods for producing a maize plant that comprises crossing hybrid maize variety 31D58 with another maize plant. Methods for producing a maize plant containing in its genetic material one or more traits introgressed into 31D58 through backcross conversion and / or transformation, and to the maize seed, plant and plant part produced thereby. This invention relates to the hybrid seed 31D58, the hybrid plant produced from the seed, and variants, mutants, and trivial modifications of hybrid 31D58. This invention further relates to methods for producing maize lines derived from hybrid maize variety 31D58 and to the maize lines derived by the use of those methods.

According to the invention, there is provided seed and plants of the hybrid corn variety designated CH002065. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of the variety CH002065, and to methods for producing a corn plant produced by crossing a corn plant of variety CH002065 with itself or with another corn plant, such as a plant of another variety.

The invention relates to the field of molecular biology and recombinant nucleic acid technology. In particular, the invention relates to a rationally-designed, non-naturally-occurring meganuclease with altered DNA recognition sequence specificity which recognizes and cleaves a unique DNA site in the maize genome. Disclosed herein are meganucleases which are variants of the I-CreI and LIG-34meganucleases. The invention also relates to methods of producing engineered maize plants using such meganucleases.

An inbred corn line, designated BB33, is disclosed. The invention relates to the seeds of inbred corn line BB33, to the plants and plant parts of inbred corn line BB33 and to methods for producing a corn plant, either inbred or hybrid, by crossing inbred corn line BB33 with itself or another corn line. The invention further relates to methods for producing a corn plant containing in its genetic material one or more transgenes and to the transgenic plants produced by that method and to methods for producing other inbred corn lines derived from inbred corn line BB33.

The invention provides transgenic maize event MON 87427 and plants, plant cells, seeds, plant parts, and commodity products derived from event MON 87427. The invention also provides nucleotides specific for transgenic maize event MON 87427 and plants, plant cells, seeds, plant parts, and commodity products comprising nucleotides specific for transgenic maize event MON 87427. The invention also provides methods related to transgenic maize event MON 87427 and to the Roundup® Hybridization System (RHS). The invention also provides a Relative Development Scale useful for monitoring and determining reproductive development in maize that reconciles developmental differences across various maize varieties. This is useful for determining the optimal timing of a treatment regimen in which tassel development stage is an important factor, including various methods in making hybrid seed.
