Embodiment 1

[0191] Example 1: Phenotypic interactions of imidazolinone resistance mutations in sunflower AHASL1

[0192] GM40 and GM1606 are mutant derived lines of sunflower that show a high level of tolerance to imidazolinones due to a point mutation at codon 122 of AHASL1 (Arabidopsis nomenclature) (WO2007005581 and Jul. 1, 2005 filed U.S. Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 60 / 695952). This demonstrates that the A122T mutation and derivative lines and hybrids homozygous for this mutation show better tolerance to imazamox than the known commercially available Clearfield sunflower homozygous for the A205V mutation on AHASL1 (WO2007005581) . Both mutants exhibit an incompletely dominant, sensitive allele relative to the wild type, as do many other examples in the literature. The present invention is based on the discovery that the A122T mutation exhibits near complete dominance over A205V for resistance to imidazolinones over the herbicide application range of 0.5X to 6X commerci...

[0196] Example 2: Response of homozygous A122T / A122T and A205V / A205V and heterozygous A122T / A205V events to imazapyr at the whole plant level

[0197] This experiment was performed to quantify and compare imazapyr in sunflower hybrids carrying the A122T and A205V mutations in homozygous (A122T / A122T or A205V / A205V) and heterozygous (A122T / A205V) states on different genetic backgrounds and at the whole plant level sensitivity.

[0236] Example 3: Herbicide tolerance of A122T and A205V homozygous and heterozygous lines and two mutant heterozygous lines (A122T / A205V) under field conditions

[0237] This experiment was carried out under field conditions to compare the difference between the mutants carrying the A122T and A205V mutations in homozygous (A122T / A122T or A205V / A205V), heterozygous (A122T / - or A205V / -) and double stacked heterozygous (A122T / A205V) states.

Abstract

Herbicide resistant sunflower plants comprising two different herbicide-resistant alleles of the sunflower acetohydroxyacid synthase large subunit 1 (AHASL1) gene are described. Methods for making these sunflower plants and methods for controlling weeds or other undesired vegetation growing in the vicinity of these sunflower plants are disclosed. Such methods involve the use of acetohydroxyacid synthase-inhibiting herbicides. Methods for controlling parasitic weeds growing on sunflower plants are also described. Additionally provided are methods for determining the genotype of sunflower plants for AHASL1 gene.

Description

[0001] This application is a Chinese patent application 200880017562.X (International Application No. PCT / US2008 / 059125) divisional application. field of invention [0002] The present invention relates to the field of agriculture, in particular to herbicide-resistant sunflower plants comprising two different herbicide-resistant alleles of the sunflower acetohydroxyacid synthase large subunit 1 (AHASL1) gene. Background of the invention [0003] Acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS; EC4.1.3.18, also known as acetolactate synthase or ALS) is the first enzyme that catalyzes the biochemical synthesis of the branched-chain amino acids valine, leucine, and isoleucine (Singh (1999) "Biosynthesis of valine, leucine and isoleucine," in Plant Amino Acids, Singh, B.K., ed., Marcel Dekker Inc. New York, New York, pp. 227-247). AHAS is the site of action for four structurally and chemically distinct herbicide families including the sulfonylureas (Tan et al. (2005) Pest Manag. Sci. 61:246-57...
