Abstract excerpt
A new Synechocystis 6714 mutant, IoxIIA, resistant to the phenol-type herbicide ioxynil was isolated and characterized. The mutation found in the psbA gene (encoding the D 1 photosystem II protein) is at the same codon 266 as for the first ioxynil-resistant mutant IoxIA previously selected [G. Ajlani, I. Meyer, C. Vernotte, and C. Astier, FEBS Lett. 246, 207-210 (1989)]. In IoxIIA, the change of Asn 266 to Asp...
