- Intervention effect Silencing AKR1 homologues in rice increased sensitivity to glyphosate.
- Intervention effect Mutation of AKR1 in Arabidopsis increased sensitivity to glyphosate.
- Intervention effect External application of AKR proteins rescued glyphosate-mediated growth inhibition of cucumber seedlings.
- Observation PsAKR1 and OsAKR1 bind efficiently to glyphosate in docking studies.
- Observation Tobacco transgenic lines expressing PsAKR1 could be regenerated on glyphosate.
- Recommendation AKR can be used as a selectable marker to develop transgenic crops.
