Abstract: The present invention refers to a plant or plant part comprising a polynucleotide encoding an herbicide tolerant IAA2 polypeptide having a deleted or disrupted degron tail region, the expression of said polynucleotide confers to the plant or plant part tolerance to synthetic auxin herbicides, such as 2,4-D. The present invention relates to methods and plants and that have a deleted or disrupted degron tail region of the IAA2 protein obtained by gene editing, transformation, mutagenesis, breeding, and the like.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an assistive shoe donning and doffing device comprising a heel support, a movable toe support and an inclined surface, which is rotatable to adjust an angle of the inclined surface. The inclined surface has at least a plantarflexion foot position, a neutral foot position and a dorsiflexion foot position. The foot positions may be preset, or the inclined surface is rotated in a continuous manner to reach said foot positions. The foot positions may be controlled remotely by a remote controller, a graphical user interface or by voice, and the donning device can sense the location of the shoe on the inclined surface.
