HERBICIDE RESISTANT MAIZE

摘要

Herbicide resistant maize plants of inbred line UE95 are obtained by mutagenesis of pollen followed by selection by germination of the resulting seed in the presence of the herbicide. The plants are resistant to normally lethal concentrations of the herbicide imazethapyr (PURSUIT) (American Cyanamid) and have resistance to other herbicides of the imidazolinone family and to sulphonylurea herbicides such as chlorsulfuron.
