Publication number: 20210403934Abstract: This invention relates in part to plant breeding and herbicide tolerant plants. This invention includes a novel AAD-1 transformation event in corn plants comprising a polynucleotide sequence, as described herein, inserted into a specific site within the genome of a corn cell. In some embodiments, said event/polynucleotide sequence can be “stacked” with other traits, including, for example, other herbicide tolerance gene(s) and/or insect-inhibitory proteins. Additionally, the subject invention provides assays for detecting the presence of the subject event in a sample (or corn grain, for example). The assays can be based on the DNA sequence of the recombinant construct, inserted into the corn genome, and on the genomic sequences flanking the insertion site. Kits and conditions useful in conducting the assays are also provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 28, 2021Publication date: December 30, 2021Inventors: Yunxing Cory CUI, Jill BRYAN, Donald MAUM, Greg GILLES, Terry WRIGHT, Jennifer HAMILTON, Nicole ARNOLD, Nathan VanOpdorp, Tina KAISER, Ning ZHOU
