Pepper Genome Editing-Cas9 Stable TransformationAlexander (Sasha) Vainstein - Pepper Genome Editing-Cas9 Stable Transformation (TTM# 13921) - The researcher has developed a protocol for successfully transforming sweet and hot pepper varieties to stably express the Cas9 endonuclease of the CRISPR gene editing tool. To date, no other research group has described Cas9 gene edited pepper plants. The researcher’s Cas9-pepper lines were used for genome editing via virus-driven trans-acting guides–for all the chosen target genes/traits. This innovation will allow breeders to enhance their exhisiting pepper varieties with novel traits. Furthermore, after back-crossing the lines the breeder will be able to remove the Cas9 gene leaving behind only the gene-edited pepper varieties. These resulting lines may be considered Non-GMO in certain geographies. By combining this technology with the MemoGene TTM#1705, the breeder/researcher may screen many phenotypes when transforming a plethora of guide RNAs.

High Throughput Screening of Antimicrobial Agents Using MicrofluidicsYonatan is a Phytopathology expert using microfluidics system to do high throughput screening of libraries to identify antimicrobial agents which can be either chemical or biological (proteins or bacteria). Yonatan is testing pathogens sensitivity against combinations of bacteria and chemical agents from the libraries using the high-throughput microfluidics system. When Potential Producer, Potential Inducer have a combined affect on a Pathogen target (killing) efficiency become of interest. This is because in nature a single bacteria species is susceptible to environmental stresses but when combined with helper bacteria they support each other synergistically.

High Heat & TYLCV Resistant TomatoesHanokh Czosnek – High Heat & TYLCV Resistant Tomatoes (TTM# 10916) –The researchers used classical breeding to develop varieties of tomatoes for open field cultivation that combine resistance to TYLCV and tolerance to extreme heat reaching 45 °C. The lines show no symptoms to TYLCV with yields similar to uninfected plants and are also tolerant to heat: flowering and fruit setting routinely occur at temperatures around 40 °C. Under high temperature, the plants produce a very nice round shape fruit with average weight of 200 grams. Fruits do not show any malformation due to heat stress. Patent Position: Not Filed, Plant Breeding Rights are to be filed soon. Yissum Online http://www.yissum.co.il/technologies/project/10916 Project ID : 47-2020-10916

Improving Surface and Hand Disinfection Treatments Against Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2)There is a growing evidence the SARS-CoV-2 survives well on various surfaces even up to several days (e.g., on plastic and stainless steel). However, it is not clear if the common practice of disinfection of surfaces is the optimal one, how effective it is, and if it can be improved. In many cases the drying of disinfection chemicals might leave behind stable thin liquid films and tiny microdroplets (termed microscopic surface wetness), invisible to the naked eye, which likely impacts viruses’ survival. In our lab we commonly study the survival of microorganisms on drying surfaces and in microscopic surface wetness. We recently showed that bacteria can survive in such microscopic wetness even for days. Yet, it is unknown how viruses like the SARS-CoV-2 can survive and remain stable on drying surfaces in particular after disinfection treatment. To study this question, we will test viral stability and survival on several surface types (e.g., plastic stainless steel, glass and cardboard), following suggested disinfectant treatments for SARS-CoV-2 and under various realistic environmental conditions. Then, we will work toward modifications of treatments or recommendations for post treatment steps (e.g. washing with specific agent), to improve common disinfection practices and reduce virus survival on surfaces.

Biologic and Genetic Marking - MemogeneAlexander (Sasha) Vainstein – MemoGene - A Viral Delivery System Platform for Enabling High Throughput Plant Genomic Modifications (TTM#1705) –MemoGene is a high throughput system for genome editing enabling fast screening for gene/trait validation, with reduced time and labor costs when compared to traditional genome editing approaches. MemoGene technology takes advantage of a Tobacco rattle virus (TRV)-based expression system, which delivers genome editing molecular tools (CRISPR/Cas compatible guide RNAs, Zinc finger nucleases and Mega nucleases) into plant cells or protoplasts and is not variety/species/genus-specific.

Biological Control of Biofilms With Carriers Encapsulating Microbial PredatorsAmos Nussinovitch & Edouard Jurkevitch – Biological Control of Biofilms by Carriers Encapsulating Microbial Predators– (TTM #10882) – The researchers are developing a biodegradable functional system for delivering biocontrol agents to biofilms. The carriers are made of hydrocolloids which encapsulate a high concentration of Bdellovibrio like organisms (BALOs) which are known to fight biofilms. This system is environmentally friendly, prevents the target biofilm from developing resistance and the release rate of the biocontrol agents can be controlled.

True Potato Seeds for Potato Starch ProductionHaim Rabinowitch - True Potato Seeds For Potato Starch Production (TTM #10851) - High quality potato starch is essential and particularly valued in the food, paper, adhesives, building, and textile industries. This is due to potato starch’s unique texture, neutral taste and high clarity compared to other starches. Our researchers have developed True Potato Seeds (TPS) for the propagation of potatoes with higher starch content. Advantages of these varieties are: TPS are cheaper and easier to handle than potato tubers. Seeds do not carry over pests and disease and hence reduce losses due to viral, bacterial and fungal infections. Production costs are reduced from USD ~760/hecater when using actual tubers to USD ~435/hectare when using TPS. Our new lines have between 4-6% higher dry matter content. Therefore, the replacement of the current system of planting tubers by transplanting TPS seedlings is of a significant economic consequence.

Colorimetric sensors for the detection and quantification of amino acids, peptides and proteins applied to monitoring chronic woundsThe invention provides new crosslinked copolymers derived from ninhydirin, and their use, in film, membrane or gel form, as chromogenic sensors in the presence of amino acids, small proteins or peptides present in aqueous samples, wounds, wound exudates, biological samples and medical samples. The capable of colour change of the new sensors in the presence of healing parameters allows monitoring the evolution of chronic wounds using RGB parameters of a digital photograph, anticipating the diagnosis and treatment of patients.EPIC Semiconductors posted this:
