Abstract

A plant cell which is resistant to a herbicidal glutamine synthetase inhibitor, wherein the resistance is caused by levels of GS activity which, when present in an otherwise herbicidal GS inhibitor sensitive plant cell, render the cell substantially resistant to the herbicidal GS-inhibitor.
