Title: Activation tagging platform for maize, and resultant tagged populations and plants
Inventor: DAVIES JOHN P
IPC: C12N15/82
Filed: 2011-08-29
Granted: 2020-06-30
Abstract: Disclosed herein is an activation tagging construct for maize, resulting tagged populations and plants. In one example, an activation tagging DNA construct includes a coding sequence for a transposase, a detectable reporter (such as anthocyanin regulatory genes B-Peru and CI) and a non-autonomous transposable T-DNA cassette. For example, the transposable T-DNA cassette is inserted into the detectable reporter encoding region such that the B-Peru and CI genes express anthocyanins in a cell containing the maize activation tagging DNA construct only upon excision of the transposable cassette. Methods of generating a tagged population of maize plants include transforming a maize plant cell or tissue with the disclosed constructs.

Title: Lever device
Inventor: AOKI YO
IPC: B60K37/06
Filed: 2013-05-30
Granted: 2020-02-25
Abstract: There is provided a lever device in which a lid is mounted to an opening portion of a lever member without dropping down therefrom and with a good visual quality. The lever device comprises a lever member (operation lever) swingably supported in a fixed system, an opening portion provided in the lever member to open in a radial direction, and a lid that is engaged to the opening portion to cover the opening portion therewith, wherein the lid is provided with a thin portion. As the thin portion is provided in the lid, deflections are generated in such a manner as to concentrate on the thin portion of the lid, and are not difficult to be generated on the other portion of the lid. Therefore the deflection is difficult to be generated in the engagement portion between the lid and the opening portion and the stress is also reduced. Therefore damages in the engagement portion between the lid and the opening portion can be suppressed.

Abstract: A process characteristic parameter determination system uses a process model and a tuning module to accurately determine a value for a process characteristic parameter within a plant without measuring the process characteristic parameter directly, and may operate online or while the process is running to automatically determine a correct value of the process characteristic parameter at any time during on-going operation of the process. The process characteristic parameter value, which may be a heat transfer coefficient value for a heat exchanger, can then be used to enable the determination of a more accurate simulation result and/or to make other on-line process decisions, such as process control decisions, process operational mode decisions, process maintenance decisions such as implementing a soot blowing operation, etc.
