Transgenic Approaches for Herbicide Tolerance | Genetics

The following points highlight the five novel transgenic approaches for herbicide tolerance. The approaches are: 1. Glyphosate Resistance 2. Glyphosate Resistance by over expression of EPSPS Gene 3. Cytochrome p450 Mediated Tolerance 4. Engineering Herbicide Tolerance by p450 5. Overexpression of At PgP, or Apyrase. Approach # 1. Glyphosate Resistance: Majority of the weeds in the world can be destroyed [...]
