Provided is a technology for conferring enhanced tolerance and/or enhancing tolerance to a herbicide of a plant and/or algae by using amino acid variants of protoporphyrinogen IX oxidase derived from prokaryotes. L'invention concerne une technologie permettant de conférer une tolérance accrue aux herbicides et/ou d'accroître la tolérance aux herbicides d'une plante et/ou d'algues à l'aide de variants d'acides aminés de la protoporphyrinogène oxydase provenant de procaryotes. 원핵생물에서 유래한 프로토포르피리노겐 IX 옥시다아제 (Protoporphyrinogen IX oxidase)의 아미노산 변이체를 이용하여 식물 및 /또는 조류 (algae)의 제초제에 대한 보다 강화된 내성을 부여하거나 및/또는 내성을 보다 증진시키는 기술이 제공된다.
