Summary:The subject invention provides novel polynucleotides and polypeptides encoding a methyltransferase. The subject invention provides novel plants that express the methyltrasferase disclosed herein and are resistant to auxin-based herbicides. The subject invention also provides transgenic plants that have been transformed with one or more other herbicide resistance genes such that the plants are resistant to the application of auxin-based herbicides and one or more other herbicides. Cette invention concerne de nouveaux polynucléotides et polypeptides codant une méthyltransférase. Elle concerne de nouvelles plantes qui expriment la méthyltransférase décrite ici et qui sont résistantes aux herbicides à base d'auxine. Cette invention concerne également des plantes transgéniques qui ont été transformées par un ou plusieurs gènes de résistance à des herbicides de telle sorte que les plantes soient résistantes à l'application d'herbicides à base d'auxine et d'un ou plusieurs autres herbicides.
