Chlorsulfuron resistance in Daucus carota cell lines and plants:Involvement of gene amplification

Abstract: Daucus carota L. cell lines stably resistant to the herbicide chlorsulfuron (CS) have been isolated according to a stepwise selection. Studies carried out during different selection steps show that the specific activity of the target enzyme acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS) increases along with CS resistance. Southern hybridization analysis performed with aBrassica napus AHAS probe in a CS highly-resistant cell line reveals the presence of a greatly amplifiedEcoRI fragment of genomic DNA. This indicates that AH… Show more

“…With the exception of a few cases of gene amplification (Caretto et al, 1994), they originated in mutant germplasms obtained through tissue culture selection, seed or microspore mutagenesis, and even from wild relatives (Tan et al, 2005). Nothing is known about the side effects of these genes in crops.…”

“…37) Chlorsulfuron resistance in carrot cells is also associated with the increased activity of the target enzyme, acetohydroxyacid synthase, which is due to overproduction by gene ampliˆcation. 38) Thus, target enzyme overproduction in herbicide-resistant cells can lead to a higher en-zyme level which overcomes the toxic eŠects of the herbicide. Hence, the resistance to S23142 of YZI-1S cells could have been developed by overproduction of the target enzyme, mitochondrial Protox.…”

“…Na obtenção de culturas resistentes aos herbicidas, três estratégias podem ser utilizadas: transferência de genes que codificam enzima insensível ao herbicida, superprodução da enzima sensível e metabolização do herbicida (Merotto Jr. et al, 2000). No caso dos inibidores da ALS, utiliza-se, principalmente, o primeiro mecanismo, embora haja relatos da obtenção de mutantes em laboratório com aumento da expressão gênica em plantas de cenoura, através da superprodução da ALS (Caretto et al, 1994).…”
