Patent ID: 8013213

Claim:
A transgenic guayule plant comprising a heterologous allylic diphosphate synthase, wherein the heterologous allylic diphosphate synthase is a member selected from the group consisting of an allylic diphosphate synthase encoded by an FPP synthase cDNA that comprises binary vector pCM1 from strain pCM1 that was deposited with the Agricultural Research Service Culture Collection (NRRL) and assigned accession number NRRL B-30799; a GPP synthase cDNA that comprises binary vector pCM3 from strain pCM3 that was deposited with the Agricultural Research Service Culture Collection (NRRL) and assigned accession number NRRL B-30800; an L4 mutant GPP synthase cDNA that comprises binary vector pCM4 from strain pCM4 that was deposited with the Agricultural Research Service Culture Collection (NRRL) and assigned accession number NRRL B-30801 or a combination of said members.
