HERBICIDE TOLERANT PLANTS EXPRESSING A CYANOBACTERIAL PLASTOQUINONE BIOSYNTHETIC PATHWAY
A method for conferring tolerance to a 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) inhibitor herbicide in a plant by expressing one or more polypeptide components of an exogenous plastoquinone-9 pathway in the plant. Nucleic acids, vectors, transgenic cells and transgenic plants useful in such a method are also disclosed.
