The subject invention provides novel plants that are not only resistant to 2,4-D, but also to a pyridyloxyacetate herbicide. The subject invention also includes plants that produce one or more enzymes of the subject invention “stacked” together with one or more other herbicide resistance genes. The subject invention enables novel combinations of herbicides to be used in new ways. Furthermore, the subject invention provides novel methods of preventing the development of, and controlling, strains of weeds that are resistant to one or more herbicides such as glyphosate. The preferred enzyme and gene for use according to the subject invention are referred to herein as AAD-13 (AryloxyAlkanoate Dioxygenase). This highly novel discovery is the basis of significant herbicide tolerant crop trait and selectable marker opportunities.
该发明提供了一种新型植物,不仅对
2,4-D具有抗性,而且对
吡啶氧基
乙酸类
除草剂也具有抗性。该发明还包括将该发明的一种或多种酶与一种或多种
其他除草剂抗性
基因“堆叠”在一起的植物。该发明使得新型
除草剂的组合可以以新的方式使用。此外,该发明提供了一种防止发展和控制对一种或多种
除草剂(如
草甘膦)具有抗性的杂草品系的新方法。该发明中用于使用的首选酶和
基因被称为
AAD-13(芳氧基烷酸双加氧酶)。这一高度新颖的发现是重要的
除草剂耐受性作物性状和可选择标记机会的基础。
