Building on existing geolocation technologies, future swath control could save on seed, minerals, fertilizer and herbicides by reducing overlapping inputs.

Samples of wild plants will now be conserved alongside existing stores of domesticated seeds (such as the Svalbard Global Seed Vault on the Norwegian island of Spitsbergen.

they have little recourse to prevent someone from buying seed or a cell culture or a transgenic animal and using it to generate thousands more to sell again at a fraction of the original price."

"Once you have sold the first seed, you are done, says Hans Sauer, deputy general counsel for intellectual property at the Biotechnology industry Organization, a lobby group in WASHINGTON DC.

a seed that could be harvested for food but would not produce offspring. The controversial proposal raised concerns that it would make farmers dependent on industry for their livelihood.

There are alternatives to making sterile seeds (see Terminator, the sequel. One tactic would be to switch off the transgene of interest in seeds,

so that they could grow into new plants but would not pass on the benefits of the engineered trait.

From Kenya other countries may get the seeds through trade. But researchers aren't resting yet nor can they ever.

Instead the FBI alleges Debeinong staff tried to steal the seeds and seedlings of the parent plants that companies crossbreed to create the seeds they sell to farmers.

Parent plants are much more valuable than the GMO seeds farmers buy. A farmer who plants a crossbred GMO corn crop could keep the resulting seeds

and replant them if she wanted. I mean technically she could because the seeds aren't sterile as is alleged often

but she would likely face legal repercussions.)However a crop grown from crossbred seeds will contain a mix of corn types most them inferior in quality.

Parent plants on the other hand breed true generation after generation carrying the traits companies engineered into them.

The sequences of parent plants'genes represent some of the companies'most important intellectual property.

Dr. Gee however has applied now successfully microct to visualize silicified conifer seed cones as old as 150 million years without cutting sawing

Because each specimen is precious the main goal of this research was to study the internal structure of fossil conifer seed cones without destroying

In the study Gee demonstrates how this technique allows the observation of internal features such as seeds vascular tissue and cone scales.

or tissues such as a row of seeds within a cone the natural pattern of growth was evident.

Applied to the cells of plants (intracellular) via the seed it provides every cell in the plant with the ability to fix nitrogen.

Plant seeds are coated with these bacteria in order to create a symbiotic mutually beneficial relationship and naturally produce nitrogen.

#New non-GM technology platform for genetic improvement of sunflower oilseed cropscientists have developed techniques for the genetic improvement of sunflowers using a non-GMO based approach.

which will improve its role as an important oilseed crop. The work was led by Dr Manash Chatterjee an Adjunct Faculty member of Botany

Among oilseed crops sunflowers are one of the most important sources of edible vegetable oil for human consumption worldwide.

Sunflower and other oilseed crops are the source of the vast majority of vegetable oil used for cooking and food processing.

For seeds and fruit in particular bright color is thought to have evolved to attract the agents of seed dispersal especially birds.

and ultimately release its seeds over a wide geographic area. The fruit of this bastard hogberry plant was scientifically delightful to pick says principal investigator Peter Vukusic Associate professor in Natural Photonics at the University of Exeter.

Vukusic and his collaborators at Harvard studied the structural origin of the seed's vibrant color.

They discovered that the upper cells in the seed's skin contain a curved repeating pattern which creates color through the interference of light waves.

The team's analysis revealed that multiple layers of cells in the seed coat are made each up of a cylindrically layered architecture with high regularity on the nanoscale.
