Abstract:
The present invention refers to a method for controlling undesired vegetation at a plant cultivation site, the method comprising the steps of providing, at said site, a plant that comprises at least one nucleic acid comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a wild-type or a mutated protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO) which is resistant or tolerant to a PPO-inhibiting herbicide by applying to said site an effective amount of said herbicide. The invention further refers to plants comprising wild-type or mutated PPO enzymes, and methods of obtaining such plants.
Abstract:
N-(tetrazol-5-yl)- and N-(triazol-5-yl)arylcarboxamides of formula (I) and their use as herbicides. The invention relates to N-(tetrazol-5-yl)- and N-(triazol-5-yl)arylcarboxamides of formula (I) and their use as herbicides. In said formula (I), B represents N or CH, whereas R, R1, R2, R3, R4 and R5 represent groups such as hydrogen, halogen or organic groups such as alkyl or phenyl.
Abstract:
The present invention refers to a method for controlling undesired vegetation at a plant cultivation site, the method comprising the steps of: providing, at said site, a plant that comprises at least one nucleic acid comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a wild-type hydroxyphenyl pyruvate dioxygenase or a mutated hydroxyphenyl pyruvate dioxygenase (mut-HPPD) which is resistant or tolerant to a N-heterocyclyl-arylcarboxamide and/or a nucleotide sequence encoding a wild-type homogentisate solanesyl transferase or a mutated homogentisate solanesyl transferase (mut-HST) which is resistant or tolerant to a N-heterocyclyl-arylcarboxamide, and applying to said site an effective amount of said herbicide. The invention further refers to a method of identifying a nucleotide sequence encoding a mut-HPPD which is resistant or tolerant to a N-heterocyclyl-arylcarboxamide, as well as transgenic plants having increased resistance or tolerance to a N-heterocyclyl-arylcarboxamide as compared to a wild-type variety of the plant cell.
Abstract:
The present invention refers to a method for controlling undesired vegetation at a plant cultivation site, the method comprising the steps of providing, at said site, a plant that comprises at least one nucleic acid comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a wild-type or a mutated protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO) which is resistant or tolerant to a benzoxazinone-derivative herbicide by applying to said site an effective amount of said herbicide. The invention further refers to plants comprising wild-type or mutated PPO enzymes, and methods of obtaining such plants.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a plant or plant part comprising a polynucleotide encoding a wildtype or mutant TriA polypeptide, the expression of said polynucleotide confers to the plant or plant part tolerance to herbicides.
