  • Patent number: 11584938
    Abstract: Provided are a plant EPSPS mutant containing mutations L195P and S247G and an encoding gene and the use thereof, related to the field of genetic engineering technology. Comparing the plant EPSPS mutant with E. coli EPSPS, the amino acid sequence of the plant EPSPS mutant has the mutation L195P at position 195 corresponding to E. coli EPSPS and/or the mutation S247G at position 247 corresponding to E. coli EPSPS. The mutation of either of the two sites or the simultaneous mutation of the two sites can confer or improve the resistance of the plant EPSPS mutant to glyphosate. Plants or recombinant bacteria for transforming the plant EPSPS mutant can grow normally in the presence of glyphosate.

  • Patent number: 11479787
    Abstract: The present invention discloses methods for prevention and prophylactic treatment of plant diseases by application of glyphosate to a plant in need of treatment. In certain embodiments, soybean plants in need of treatment at vegetative and reproductive growth stages prior to or subsequent to infection, may be treated with glyphosate in order to prevent infection or suppress disease development, symptomatology, and yield loss. Application of a fungicide (e.g. a strobilurin fungicide such as pyraclostrobin or picoxystrobin) together with glyphosate, is also contemplated. Soybean diseases that may be treated in this manner include Soybean Sudden Death, Brown Stem Rot, Stem Canker, and Charcoal Rot, among others.
