Abstract
Virus genes, for example coat protein genes, which bring about a reduction in the signs of infection by the corresponding virus or bring about virus resistance can be combined with herbicide-resistance genes for the transformation of plants. A combination of this type facilitates the selection of the transgenic plants. In addition, in practical field cultivation, the vitality of the plants is increased by the virus tolerance, and an improved plant protection is possible owing to the herbicide-resistance gene.
