TRANSGENIC PLANTS THAT EXPRESS A PROKARYOTIC, AMMONIUM-DEPENDENT ASPARAGINE SYNTHETASE.

摘要

The gene asnA which encodes a prokaryotic ammonium-specific asparagine synthetase (ASN-A) can be introduced into plant cells. Such transformed cells and plants developed therefrom not only tolerate glutamine synthetase inhibitors but are effectively stimulated by such herbicides.
