Sulfonylurea herbicide resistance in plants
Plants, plant tissues and plant seeds which are resistant to inhibition by sulfonylurea and/or imidazolinone herbicides are provided. In particular, domestic lettuce varieties having resistance to herbicides which target the enzyme acetolactate synthase are provided. The resistant plants find use in areas where weed growth is controlled by sulfonylurea and/or imidazolinone herbicides.
