Abstract:
The present invention refers to aplant or plant part comprising a polynucleotide encoding a wildtype or mutant transketolase polypeptide, the expression of said polynucleotide confers to the plant or plant part tolerance to transketolase-inhibiting herbicides.
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:
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 relates to phenylethers of formula (I) or their agriculturally acceptable salts or derivatives, wherein the variables are defined according to the description, processes and intermediates for preparing the phenylethers of formula (I), compositions comprising them and their use as herbicides, i.e. for controlling harmful plants, and also a method for controlling unwanted vegetation which comprises allowing a herbicidal effective amount of at least one phenylether of formula (I) to act on plants, their seed and/or their habitat.
Abstract:
La presente invención se refiere a uracilpiridinas de la Fórmula (I) o sus derivados o sales aceptables en la agricultura, en donde las variables se definen de acuerdo con la descripción, los procesos y los intermediarios para preparar las uracilpiridinas de la Fórmula (I), a composiciones que las comprenden y su uso como herbicidas, es decir, para controlar plantas dañinas, y también a un método para controlar la vegetación no deseada, que comprende permitir que una cantidad eficaz como herbicida de al menos una uracilpiridina de la Fórmula (I) actúe en las plantas, en sus semillas y/o en su hábitat.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to uracilpyridines of formula (I), or their agriculturally acceptable salts or derivatives, wherein the variables are defined according to the description, processes and intermediates for preparing the uracilpyryidines of the formula (I), compositions comprising them and their use as herbicides, i.e. for controlling harmful plants, and also a method for controlling unwanted vegetation which comprises allowing a herbicidal effective amount of at least one urycilpyridine of the formula (I) to act on plants, their seed and/or their habitat.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for identifying a polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide which confers herbicide tolerance to a plant by measuring photosynthetic quantum yield wherein an increase in the electron transport rate of the samples of the transformed plant as compared to the sample of the control plant is indicative for a herbicide tolerance conferring activity of said candidate polypeptide.
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 coumarone-derivative herbicide 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 coumarone-derivative herbicide, and applying to said site an effective amount of said herbicide. The invention further refers to plants comprising mut-HPPD, and methods of obtaining such plants.
