Abstract excerpt
Weeds are a major factor that negatively impact crop yields. Developing herbicide-resistant germlines is crucial for efficient weed control. Sulfonylurea- and pyrimidinyl benzoate-based herbicides inhibit the function of acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS), a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of branched-chain amino acids in plants. To create soybean plants resistant to these classes of herbicides, we performed base...
