Methods And Compositions For Expression Of Transgenes In Plants
Methods and compositions for the expression of transgenes in monocot plants including maize are disclosed. In the invention, gene silencing is avoided by use of monocot-homeologous sequences from plants of the genus Coix for transformation. Included in these transgene sequences are Coix promoters, enhancers, coding sequences and terminators. Suitable alternatives to maize-derived transgenes are desirable for expression in maize in that homology-based gene silencing can limit or effectively eliminate transgene expression.
High Lysine Maize Compositions And Event Ly038 Maize Plants

Disclosed herein are novel DNA constructs encoding dihydrodipicolinic acid synthase that are useful for generating transgenic events. Also provided are transgenic plants harboring such DNA constructs, the expression of which results in increased lysine in the plant or plant product. Also provided are maize plants having LY038 Event and progeny thereof having this event. Additionally disclosed are assays for detecting the presence of a lysine-increasing transgenic event based on the DNA sequence of the exogenous DNA construct inserted into the maize genome and of genomic sequences flanking the insertion site.

International Classification:
C12N 15/82 A01H 5/00
US Classification:
536 241, 800298, 4353201
Abstract:
The invention provides isolated gamma coixin promoters useful for the expression of heterologous coding sequences in transgenic plants. Further provided by the invention are transgenic plants comprising such promoters, expression constructs for the introduction of heterologous coding sequences into plants, and methods of using the plants and nucleic acids provided by the invention.

Abstract:
Disclosed herein are assays for detecting the presence of a lysine-increasing transgenic event based on the DNA sequence of the exogenous DNA construct inserted into the maize genome and of genomic sequences flanking the insertion site. Also provided are transgenic plants having a novel exogenous DNA construct that expresses a dihydrodipicolinic acid synthase, the activity of which results in increased lysine in a plant or plant product.
Maize Seed With Synergistically Enhanced Lysine Content

Assignee:
Monsanto Technology LLC - St. Louis MO
International Classification:
A01H 1/00 C12N 15/82 C12N 15/87 C07H 21/04
US Classification:
800278, 800285, 800286, 536 237
Abstract:
The present invention provides a transgenic maize plant having in its genome transgenic DNA including sequence for zein reduction and sequence for lysine biosynthesis, whereby expression of the transgenic DNA results in a synergistically increased lysine content of seed of the transgenic maize plant. The invention further provides a method for providing maize seed with synergistically increased lysine content.
