a DNA sequence for encoding mutated 5-enol pyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase, the protein and transformed plants containing said DNAne

摘要

DNA sequence coding for a mutated 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS), characterised in that the EPSPS is from maize and comprises a first mutation consisting in a substitution of threonine 102 to isoleucine and a second mutation consisting in a substitution of proline 106 by serine. Also included is the method for the production of producing glyphosate-resistant transformed plants with improved tolerance to herbicides having EPSP synthase as its target.
