Abstract

Cyanobacteria offer an excellent model system for studies of herbicide resistance in higher plants. Mutants resistant to classical and non-classical herbicides have been isolated, and in some cases the amino acid alteration(s) are known. Mutations in plants, algae, photosyntehtic bacteria, and cyanobacteria are compared. Data concerning the question of dominance or recessiveness of herbicide resistance in cyanobacteria are also discussed.
