<p>Provided are constructs and methods for expressing herbicide tolerance genes in plastids of plant cells. Constructs include the components of a promoter functional in a plant plastid, a DNA sequence which is capable of conferring tolerance in a plant cell to at least one herbicide compound when said DNA sequence is transcribed in plastids of said plant cell and a transcription termination region. Herbicide tolerance is produced by transforming plastids with the constructs of the invention and growing plant cells comprising the transformed plastids under conditions wherein the DNA sequence is transcribed and plant plastids and cells containing the plastids are rendered tolerant to applications of at least one herbicide compound.</p> |
