(57) [Summary]nThe present invention uses a recombinantly produced enzyme with AIR synthetase activity to screen chemicals for herbicidal activity, and thereby identifies herbicidal compounds for inhibiting unwanted vegetation growth Disclosed is that it is used to: Further, the present invention provides a method for developing herbicide resistance in plants, plant tissues, plant seeds and plant cells using genes encoding enzymes having AIR synthetase activity, and the use of such transgenic plants in crop fields. Provided are methods used to selectively inhibit weed growth. |
