  • Publication number: 20230210075
    Abstract: The present invention relates to nucleic acid sequences for detecting soybean plant DBN8002 and detection methods thereof, wherein said nucleic acid sequences comprise SEQ ID NO: 1 or a complementary sequence thereof, and/or SEQ ID NO: 2 or a complementary sequence thereof. The soybean plant DBN8002 of the present invention has good resistance against Lepidoptera insects as well as good tolerance to glufosinate herbicide without compromising the yield, and the detection methods can accurately and rapidly identify whether a biological sample contains the DNA molecule of the transgenic soybean event DBN8002.

  • Publication number: 20230212587
    Abstract: Provided is a mutant hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) polypeptide, an encoding gene thereof and a use thereof. The mutant HPPD polypeptide retains the activity of catalyzing the conversion of hydroxyphenylpyruvate acid into homogentisic acid or homogentisate, and the sensitivity to HPPD inhibitor herbicides is lower than that of original unmutated HPPD. On position 372 corresponding to the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 1, the mutant HPPD polypeptide comprises the following mutations: F372A, F372G, F372V, F372P, F372S, F372T, F372C, F372M, F372Q, F372D or F372 deletion. The described mutant can provide plants with high tolerance to HPPD inhibitor herbicides, and can be used to cultivate plants that are tolerant to HPPD inhibitor herbicides.
