COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR GENETIC MODIFICATION OF PLANTS
First Claim
1. A soybean plant cell having stably incorporated into its genome a transfer cassette comprising a nucleotide sequence of interest flanked by a first and a second non-identical recombination site, wherein said first and said second non-identical recombination site can recombine in said soybean plant cell with their identical recombination site in the presence of an appropriate recombinase.

Abstract
Methods for the targeted integration of nucleotide sequences into a plant are provided. Transfer cassettes comprising nucleotide sequences of interest flanked by non-identical recombination sites are used to transform a plant comprising a target site. The target site contains at least a set of non-identical recombination sites corresponding to those on the transfer cassette. Exchange of the nucleotide sequences flanked by the recombination sites is effected by a recombinase.
