PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide plants with increased tolerance to herbicides.SOLUTION: Disclosed herein is a method for controlling undesirable vegetation at a plant cultivation site, comprising the steps of: a) providing, at the cultivation site, a plant comprising at least one nucleic acid comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a wild type protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO) or a mutant protoporphyrinogen oxidase (mut-PPO) which is resistant or tolerant to a PPO-inhibitory herbicide; and/or b) applying an effective amount of the herbicide to the site.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4 【課題】除草剤に対する増加した耐性を有する植物の提供。【解決手段】植物の栽培部位において望ましくない植生を制御するための方法であって、a）前記部位に、PPO(プロトポルフィリノーゲンオキシダーゼ)阻害除草剤に対して抵抗性又は耐性である野生型プロトポルフィリノーゲンオキシダーゼ又は突然変異プロトポルフィリノーゲンオキシダーゼ（mut-PPO）をコードするヌクレオチド配列を含む少なくとも一つの核酸を含む植物を提供するステップ、及び／又はb）前記部位に有効量の前記除草剤を適用するステップを含む前記方法。【選択図】図４
