Abstract:

The present invention provides herbicide-tolerant plants. The present invention also provides methods for controlling the growth of weeds by applying an herbicide to which herbicide-tolerant plants of the invention are tolerant. Plants of the invention may express an acetyl-Coenzyme A carboxylase enzyme that is tolerant to the action of acetyl-Coenzyme A carboxylase enzyme inhibitors.

Abstract:

The present invention provides saflufenacil-tolerant plants. The present invention also provides methods for controlling the growth of weeds by applying saflufenacil to which the saflufenacil-tolerant plants of the invention are tolerant. Plants of the invention express a cytochrome P450 polypeptide, the expression of which confers, to the plants, tolerance to the saflufenacil.

US Patent:

60375256, Mar 14, 2000
Filed:

Aug 1, 1996
Appl. No.:

8/692847
Inventors:

William Thompson - Raleigh NC
George Allen - Raleigh NC
Scots Mankin - Raleigh NC
Assignee:

North Carolina State University - Raleigh NC
International Classification:

C12N 1500
C12N 1529
C12N 1582
A01H 500
US Classification:

800298
Abstract:

A method of making recombinant plant cells having reduced variability of expression of foreign genes therein is described herein. The method comprises (a) providing a plant cell capable of regeneration; and (b) transforming the plant cell with a DNA construct comprising an expression cassette, which construct comprises a transcription initiation region, a structural gene positioned downstream from the transcription initiation region and operatively associated therewith, and an insulator (or "boundary element") positioned (i) 5' to the transcription initiation region, (ii) 3' to the structural gene, or (iii) both 5' to the transcription initiation region and 3' to the structural gene. DNA constructs useful for carrying out the method and plant cells and plants produced by the method are also disclosed.
