Plant Genetic Systems NV 公司(根特,比利时)的工程师终于使一些植物具有了抗高含量商品除草剂的能力。该公司的研究人员已在马铃薯、烟草和番茄植株中,表达出一种能除去膦基表黄酮的酶的基因。膦基表黄酮是称为 BASTA 的一种广谱除草剂的活性成分。
Engineers at Plant Genetic Systems NV (Ghent, Belgium) finally made some plants resistant to high levels of commercial herbicide. Researchers at the company have expressed a gene that removes phosphinothricin’s enzymes from potato, tobacco and tomato plants. Phosphonothricin is the active ingredient of a broad-spectrum herbicide called BASTA.
