摘要:
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.

The present invention relates to crystals of a protoporphyrinogen IX oxidase, to processes for preparing crystals of a protoporphyrinogen IX oxidase, to processes for determining the structure of protoporphyrinogen IX oxidases alone or complexed with a ligand, and to processes for identifying ligands of the mitochondrial protoporphyrinogen IX oxidase, which may be used as herbicides. The present invention also relates to the use of the crystal structure described here of the Nicotiana tabacum mitochondrial protoporphyrinogen IX oxidase for generating protein models of related enzymes and to the identification of inhibitors of related proteins.
摘要:
The present invention provides novel eukaryotic DNA sequences coding for native protoporphyrinogen oxidase (protox) or modified forms of the enzyme which are herbicide tolerant. Plants having altered protox activity which confers tolerance to herbicides are also provided. These plants may be bred or engineered for resistance to protox inhibitors via mutation of the native protox gene to a resistant form or through increased levels of expression of the native protox gene, or they may be transformed with modified eukaryotic or prokaryotic protox coding sequences or wild type prokaryotic protox sequences which are herbicide tolerant. Diagnostic and other uses for the novel eukaryotic protox sequence are also described. Plant genes encoding wild-type and altered protox, purified plant protox, methods of isolating protox from plants, and methods of using protox-encoding genes are also disclosed.

摘要:
The present invention relates to the use of a protoporphyrinogen oxidase. A method for controlling weeds comprises applying a herbicide containing an effective dose of a PPO inhibitor to a field in which at least one transgenic plant is present, wherein the transgenic plant comprises, in the genome thereof, a polynucleotide sequence encoding protoporphyrinogen oxidase, and the transgenic plant has reduced plant damage and/or has an increased plant yield compared with other plants that do not have a polynucleotide sequence encoding protoporphyrinogen oxidase. The protoporphyrinogen oxidase PPO1-PPO14 of the present invention has a high tolerance to a PPO inhibitor herbicide. In addition, the plants containing the polynucleotide sequence encoding protoporphyrinogen oxidase have a strong tolerance to the PPO-inhibitor herbicide, and show high-resistance tolerance to almost all of 4-fold field concentration of oxyfluorfen, saflufenacil and flumioxazin and 2-fold field concentration of sulfentrazone. Therefore, the protoporphyrinogen oxidase has broad application prospects in plants.
