Title:
PHOSPHATASES, POLYNUCLEOTIDES ENCODING THESE AND USES THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2006011815
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to L-galactose-1-phosphate phosphatases in plants and plants with altered expression of L-galactose-1- phosphate phosphatases. The invention also provides polynucleotides encoding L-galactose-1-phosphate phosphatases from apple, kiwifruit and avocado species and variants of these sequences. The polynucleotides are useful for transforming plants to provide altered expression of L-galactose-1- phosphate phosphatases. The invention also provides isolated L-galactose-1-phosphate phosphatases, host cells, plant selection methods, herbicide identification methods and antibodies.
