Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
37 words
A rapeseed plant transformed with an antisense gene for cruciferin storage protein, which produces a seed containing an increased amount of lysine, methionine, and cysteine as compared with a seed produced by a rapeseed plant before transformation.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
37 words
A rapeseed plant transformed with an antisense gene for cruciferin storage protein, which produces a seed containing an increased amount of lysine, methionine, and cysteine as compared with a seed produced by a rapeseed plant before transformation.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
37 words
A rapeseed plant transformed with an antisense gene for napin storage protein, which produces a seed in which the fatty acid composition has been altered as compared with a seed produced by a rapeseed plant before transformation.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
37 words
A rapeseed plant transformed with an antisense gene for napin storage protein, which produces a seed in which the fatty acid composition has been altered as compared with a seed produced by a rapeseed plant before transformation.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
44 words
A rapeseed plant of claim 2 transformed with an antisense gene for napin storage protein, which produces a seed in which the fatty acid composition has a decreased amount of oleic acid as compared with a seed produced by a rapeseed plant before transformation.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
44 words
A rapeseed plant of claim 2 transformed with an antisense gene for napin storage protein, which produces a seed in which the fatty acid composition has an increased amount of linoleic acid as compared with a seed produced by a rapeseed plant before transformation.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
44 words
A rapeseed plant of claim 2 transformed with an antisense gene for napin storage protein, which produces a seed in which the fatty acid composition has an increased amount of linolenic acid as compared with a seed produced by a rapeseed plant before transformation.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
40 words
The rapeseed plant according to claim 2, wherein the antisense gene comprises a transcription initiation region operably joined to a napin coding sequence from the napA gene which is in an antisense orientation with respect to the transcription initiation sequence.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
40 words
The rapeseed plant according to claim 1, wherein the antisense gene comprises a transcription initiation region operably joined to a cruciferin coding sequence from the cruA gene which is in an antisense orientation with respect to the transcription initiation sequence.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
17 words
A seed produced by the rapeseed plant of claim 1, wherein the seed contains said antisense gene.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
17 words
A seed produced by the rapeseed plant of claim 2, wherein the seed contains said antisense gene.
