Cyanobacterial nucleic acid fragments encoding proteins useful for controlling plant traits via nuclear or plastome transformation.

摘要

The present invention relates to improved screening methods for identifying and utilizing cyanobacterial genes for modifying plant traits, and to cyanobacteria as an alternative source of ahas and pds genes for plant transformations, in particular genes encoding herbicide insensitive proteins, and elements of genes for control of expression in plastids.
