Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2004058956A1] The invention relates to the use of malate dehydrogenase, the absence of which causes growth retardation and chlorotic leaves and which is coded by the nucleic acid sequence SEQ ID NO:2 or a functional equivalent thereof, as a target for herbicides. Novel nucleic acid sequences comprising SEQ ID NO:2 and functional equivalents of SEQ ID NO:2 are provided in said framework. The invention also relates to the use of said malate dehydrogenase and the functional equivalents thereof in a method for identifying compounds having a herbicidal or growth-regulating effect and the use of the compounds identified via said method as herbicides or growth regulators.
