Methods for screening for herbicide tolerant mutants, for treating plant, for breeding, and for selecting a transformed, progeny or progeny plant cell, plant part, seed, plant cell, nucleic acid molecule, and use of nucleic acid.
The present invention provides herbicide-tolerant plants. The present invention also provides methods for controlling the growth of weeds by applying an herbicide to which herbicide-tolerant plants of the invention are tolerant. Plants of the invention may express an acetyl-Coenzyme A carboxylase enzyme that is tolerant to the action of acetyl-Coenzyme A carboxylase enzyme inhibitors.
