Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for treating rice. The method comprises the steps of: providing a domestic rice crop plant and at least one ACCase-inhibiting aryloxyphenoxypropanoate herbicide selected from the group consisting of quizalofop or an ester thereof, haloxyfop, fluazifop or an ester thereof, clodinafop, clodinafop-propargyl, diclofop, and diclofop-methyl; applying an effective amount (measured in g AI/Ha) of the at least one aryloxyphenoxypropanoate herbicide to the domestic rice crop plant, post-emergence; thereby creating a treated rice plant; and growing the resulting treated rice plant.

Abstract: The present invention refers to a method for controlling undesired vegetation at a plant cultivation site, the method comprising the steps of providing, at said site, a plant that comprises at least one nucleic acid comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a wild-type or a mutated protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO) which is resistant or tolerant to a benzoxazinone-derivative herbicide by applying to said site an effective amount of said herbicide. The invention further refers to plants comprising wild-type or mutated PPO enzymes, and methods of obtaining such plants.

Abstract: Provided are compositions and methods for improving plant performance including transforming a plant with an isopentenyl transferase, a tryptophan monooxygenase or an indole acetamide hydrolase polynucleotide. Preferably, the plant is transformed with an ipt, iaaM or iaaH oncogene from Agrobacterium tumefaciens operably linked to a developmental stage-preferred promoter or a tissue-preferred promoter. Controllably expressing one or more of these polynucleotides in a plant results in increased drought resistance, increased root mass, increased seedling vigor or modulated branching.
