The invention provides an acquisition method for transgenic gramineous crops capable of being selectively perished, comprising the following steps: when target genes are expressed, expression of genes participating in herbicide detoxification in the transgenic gramineous crops is inhibited by utilization of antisense RNA or RNAi means, and the transgenic gramineous crops capable of being selectively perished are obtained. The invention mainly has the advantages that: the transgenic gramineous crops acquired by utilization of the method can be selectively perished by Bentazon or sulphuryl carbamide herbicide as required, thereby transmission of the transgenic gramineous crops and interfusion to non-transgenic gramineous crops are prevented, and the method has great significance in transgenic crop research later on.
