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 HPPD-inhibiting 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 HPPD-inhibiting herbicide, 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.

Abstract:
Provided is a method for controlling undesired vegetation at a plant cultivation site, the method comprising the steps of : providing a plant, at the site, that comprising at least one nucleic acid comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a wild-type hydroxyphenyl pyruvate dioxygenase or a mutated hydroxyphenyl pyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) which is resistant or tolerate 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 tolerate to a N-heterocyclyl-arylcarboxamide, and applying to the site an effective amount of the herbicide. Also provided is a method of indentifying a nucleotide sequence encoding a mut-HPPD which is resistant or tolerate 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:
Provided is a method for producing a transgenic plant with increased herbicide tolerance or resistance as compared to a corresponding non-transformed wild type plant, comprising transforming a plant cell or a plant cell nucleus or a plant tissue with a nucleic acid molecule encoding a HPPD polypeptide. The nucleic acid encoding a HPPD polypeptide and plants with increased HPPD-inhibiting herbicide tolerance or resistance comprising the nucleic acid of the invention are also provided.
