DECISION ON APPEAL
This is an appeal under 35 U.S.C. § 134 involving claims to a method
for sorting plant embryos. The Examiner has rejected the claims as
nonenabled and lacking adequate written description. We have jurisdiction
under 35 U.S.C. § 6(b). We reverse the rejection for inadequate written
description but affirm the rejection for nonenablement.
