Summary: | Transformed plants (A), and plant cells (B), that contain genes that provide overexpression of the enzymes PDH (perphenate dehydrogenase) and HPPD (p-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase). Independent claims are also included for: (1) growing (A) that includes treatment with herbicides that inhibit HPPD but have no significant effect on (A); (2) improving tolerance to HPPD inhibitors by transforming plants, simultaneously or sequentially, with genes that overexpress PDH and HPPD; (3) increasing the quantity of prenylquinones (PQ) in plants by transforming them, simultaneously or sequentially, with genes that overexpress PDH and HPPD; and (4) producing PQ by growing (A) or (B). |
