Innovation, Licensing, and Competition: Evidence From Genetically Engineered Crops
The Journal of Industrial Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We provide a novel empirical analysis of the role of technology licensing, between competitors, for genetically engineered (GE) traits in the US seed industry. We extend the standard differentiated‐product Bertrand pricing model to include trait licensing, which permits us to recover marginal costs and (otherwise unobserved) royalty rates ...

Engineering next‐generation crops through CRISPR‐mediated horizontal gene transfer
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Crops increasingly face overlapping stresses such as heat, drought, salinity, and pathogens that conventional breeding or genome editing rarely overcome in combination. To address this, we propose CRISPR‐enabled horizontal gene transfer (CRISPR‐HGT) as a programmable framework that recreates the evolutionary process by which plants historically

THE ECONOMICS OF NON-GMO SEGREGATION AND IDENTITY PRESERVATION [PDF]
We survey grain and soybean handlers and producers in the U.S. and EU to estimate costs of preserving the identities of GMO and non-GMO crops in marketing channels.

From bacterial predators to partners: phages in agriculture
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Bacteriophages, viruses that infect bacteria, are critical players for shaping the taxonomic and functional composition of plant‐associated microbiomes. Yet, their roles in plant health remain overlooked, along with their implications for sustainable agriculture.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Bacterial blight (BB) of rice, caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), is one of the major drivers of yield losses in Africa and Asia. Xoo secretes TAL‐effectors (TALe) that induce host SWEET sucrose uniporter by binding to the effector binding element (EBE) of SWEET promoters, likely required for Xoo reproduction and virulence.

Response of Corn and Palmer amaranth to Mesotrione [PDF]
, 2018 Mesotrione is a herbicide used for the selective pre- and post-emergence control of a wide range of broadleaf and grass weeds in corn (Zea mays). It inhibits the enzyme 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) which leads to stop biosynthesis of ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Stalk rot, primarily caused by Fusarium graminearum (Fg) and Pythium inflatum (Pi), is a major maize disease responsible for significant yield losses. The molecular mechanisms governing defence against these pathogens remain poorly understood. To uncover key miRNAs and their regulatory genes, small RNA, degradome, and transcriptome sequencing ...

Dynamic Diffusion with Disadoption: The Case of Crop Biotechnology in the USA [PDF]
Controversy over the use of genetically engineered (GE) crops may have induced some farmers to disadopt these seeds, making a traditional diffusion model inappropriate.

Remote Sensing of Endogenous Pigmentation by Inducible Synthetic Circuits in Grasses
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plant synthetic biology holds great promise for engineering plants to meet future demands. Genetic circuits are being designed, built and tested in plants to demonstrate the proof of concept. However, developing these components in monocots, which the world relies on for grain, lags behind dicot models, such as Arabidopsis thaliana and ...
