The share price of Genetic Technologies (ASX: GTG) has risen over 50 per cent since the judge in GTG's lawsuit against Applera ruled largely in the company's favour during the Markman hearing last Thursday.

GTG were up from AUD$0.38 last Thursday to AUD$0.59 at time of writing.

In the hearing, the court examined 15 disputed technical terms within GTG's patent claims, ruling in favour of GTG's definition in 13 cases, and adopting a definition consistent with GTG's position for the other two terms.
