Filing an Application. The effective date of an application is when a completed application form including attachments and filing fee have been provided to the Plant Breeders’ Rights Office(PBRO). The effective date will be used to determine the priority date of applications when varieties under examination are indistinguishable. The following information is to be provided to the PBRO : Completed application form and fee. Description of the origin and breeding history of the variety. Statement of uniformity and stability. Distinctness statement. Methods for maintaining the variety. Sample of propagating material(where applicable). Authorization of agent(where applicable). Evidence establishing that the Applicant is the legal representative(where applicable).

Record 3 - external organization data 2011-06-14

English

Subject field(s)
  • Compartment - ISO/IEC JTC 1 Information Technology Vocabulary
Universal entry(ies)
06.01.90 (19762)
ISO/IEC standard entry number
DEF

<radio communications> ability of electromagnetic waves to propagate into or through materials

OBS

Non-conducting materials are essentially transparent to electromagnetic waves, but absorption mechanisms, particularly at higher frequencies, reduce the amount of energy propagating through the material.

OBS

Metals constitute good reflectors for freely propagating electromagnetic waves, with very little of an incident wave being able to propagate into the metal surface.

OBS

Low-frequency tagging systems are said to have good penetrative properties as their tag can be read when behind or encased in other materials.

OBS

Microwave tagging systems, while having greater ranges, are less capable of penetration of materials.

OBS

penetration: term and definition standardized by ISO/IEC [ISO/IEC 19762-4:2008].
