Dear Judith
They lost the 3 method claims, but kept all the product claims. They needed to slightly adapt those product claims but the essence was maintained. Details will be in the written decision, will share this here (it will yet take some time until it is published).
Best, Carla

Dear round,
what a pity that the Syngentas paprika patent remains as it is! Was there at least a good discussion or minor adjustments in the patent text? Thank you very much for your valuable work!
Another question: The unitary patenthttps://www.epo.org/news-events/news/2023/20230217.html is due to come into force in June 2023. I don't have enough background knowledge to be able to assess what this means for patents on seeds and genetic variations in general. Are any of you concerned with this and can help me with your assessment (gladly in a mail exchange or phone call)? I would also be happy to receive articles or scientific papers on the subject! Many thanks!
All the Best, Judith -- Judith Düesberg (sie / ihr)
