ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to monocot genes encoding a mutant AHAS enzyme that is specifically resistant to imidazolinone herbicides. Exemplary of these genes are corn DNA sequences which encode an amino acid substitution at position 621 of the wild-type AHAS enzyme. The mutant gene can be used to transform other plants to herbicide resistance; in this regard, the invention also provides host cells and vectors containing the gene, which cells and vectors are useful in the transformation process.
