Abstract: Methods for making transgenic plants that are resistant to HPPD herbicides are presented. Polynucleotides other than those from Pseudomonas fluorescens that encode resistant HPPD enzymes are enclosed for use in the process of making transgenic plants that are tolerant to HPPD-inhibiting herbicides.

Abstract: Polynucleotide constructs encoding EPSPS enzymes are disclosed. The constructs have at least one transcriptional enhancer operably linked to a soybean or Brassica promoter and to a sequence respectively encoding the soybean or Brassica EPSPS chloroplast transit peptide and soybean or Brassica EPSPS enzyme. The EPSPS enzymes comprise a modified region that confers herbicide resistance.

Abstract: The invention is directed to polynucleotide constructs having at least one transcriptional enhancer operably liked to a rice EPSPS promoter and to a sequence encoding the rice EPSPS chloroplast transit peptide and rice EPSPS enzyme, the encoded enzyme having a modified region that confers herbicide resistance.

Abstract: An HPPD-inhibitor resistant HPPD enzyme comprising an amino acid sequence QIKECQ and a sequence F, (D/E), F, (M/L), W1, (P/A), P, W2, X, X, Y, Y wherein W1 is either A or P and where (i) if W1 is A then W2 is P, A, Q or L or, (ii) if W1 is P then W2 is P, A, Q or T, and wherein X is any amino acid. The invention also include methods of identifying HPPD inhibitor resistant HPPD enzymes and also of the enzymes thus identified.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the production of a non-transgenic plant resistant or tolerant to a herbicide of the phosphonomethylglycine family, e.g., glyphosate. The present invention also relates to the use of a recombinagenic Oligonucleobase to make a desired mutation in the chromosomal or episomal sequences of a plant in the gene encoding for 5-enol pyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS). The mutated protein, which substantially maintains the catalytic activity of the wild-type protein, allows for increased resistance or tolerance of the plant to a herbicide of the phosphonomethylglycine family, and allows for the substantially normal growth or development of the plant, its organs, tissues or cells as compared to the wild-type plant irrespective of the presence or absence of the herbicide.

Abstract: The present invention provides, inter alia, an isolated polynucleotide comprising a region encoding a chloroplast transit peptide and a glyphosate resistant 5-enolpyruvylshikimate phosphate synthase (EPSPS) 3′ of the peptide, the said region being under expression control of a plant operable promoter, with the provisos that the said promoter is not heterologous with respect to the said region, and the chloroplast transit peptide is not heterologous with respect to the said synthase.
