Abstract
The present invention refers to a method for controlling undesired vegetation at a plant cultivation site, the method comprising the steps of: providing, at said site, a plant that comprises at least one nucleic acid comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a wild-type hydroxyphenyl pyruvate dioxygenase or a mutated hydroxyphenyl pyruvate dioxygenase (mut-HPPD) which is resistant or tolerant to a N-heterocyclyl-arylcarboxamide and/or a nucleotide sequence encoding a wild-type homogentisate solanesyl transferase or a mutated homogentisate solanesyl transferase (mut-HST) which is resistant or tolerant to a N-heterocyclyl-arylcarboxamide, and applying to said site an effective amount of said herbicide. The invention further refers to a method of identifying a nucleotide sequence encoding a mut-HPPD which is resistant or tolerant to a N-heterocyclyl-arylcarboxamide, as well as transgenic plants having increased resistance or tolerance to a N-heterocyclyl-arylcarboxamide as compared to a wild-type variety of the plant cell.
