Suitable methods are protoplast transformation by polyethylene glycol-induced DNA uptake, the biolistic method with the gene gun - known as the particle bombardment method, electroporation, incubation of dry embryos in DNA-containing solution, DIE microinjection and the Agrobacterium-mediated gene transfer of gene transfer takes place advantageously in the present invention, with examples' for example the Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain GV 3101 pMP90, The methods mentioned are described, for example, in B. Jenes et al., Techniques for Gene Transfer, in: Transgenic Plants, Vol.
- the construct to be expressed is preferably cloned into a vector which is suitable for transforming Agrobacterium tumefaciens, for example pBin19 (Bevan et al., Nucl. Acids Res. 12 (1984) 8711).
- Agrobacteria transformed with such a vector can then be used in a known manner for transforming plants, in particular crop plants, such as tobacco plants, for example, by bathing wounded leaves or leaf pieces in an agrobacterial solution and then cultivating them in suitable media.
- the introduced nucleic acid or DNA will be cloned into special Pl 'asmide, namely either into an intermediate vector or into a binary vector.
- the intermediate vectors can be integrated into the Ti or Ri plasmid of the agrobacteria on the basis of sequences which are homologous to sequences in the T-DNA by homologous recombination. This also contains the vir region necessary for the transfer of the T-DNA.
- Intermediate vectors cannot replicate in agrobacteria.
- the intermediate vector can be transferred to Agrobacterium tumefaciens (conjugation).
- Binary vectors can replicate in both E.
- coli and agrobacteria contain a selection marker gene and a linker or polylinker, which are framed by the right and left T-DNA border region. They can be transformed directly into the agrobacteria (Holsters et al. Mol. Gen. Genet. 163 (1978), 181-187). Serving as host cell should contain a plasmid of Agrobacterium carrying a vir region '. The vir region is necessary for the transfer of the T-DNA into the plant cell. Additional T-DNA may be present. The agrobacterium transformed in this way is used to transform plant cells.
- T-DNA for the transformation of plant cells has been intensively investigated and is sufficiently described in EPA-0 120 516; , Hoekema, In: The Binary Plant Vector System Offsetdrukkerij Kanters BV, Alblasserdam (1985), Chapter V; Fraley et al. , Crit. Rev. Plant. Sci., 4: 1-46 and An et al. EMBO J. "4 (1985), 277-287.
- plant explants can expediently with Agrobacterium tumefaciens or Agrobacterium rhizogenes are co-cultured.
- Agrobacterium tumefaciens or Agrobacterium rhizogenes are co-cultured.
- From the infected plant material (cultured suspension, for example, pieces of leaf, stem segments, roots, but also protoplasts or plant 'cells) may then in a suitable medium, which anti-' may contain biotics or biocides for selecting transformed cells whole plants be regenerated ,
- the plants thus obtained can then be examined for the presence of the introduced DNA.
- Other ways of introducing foreign DNA using the biolistic method or by protoplast transformation are known (cf., for example Willmitzer, L., 1993 Transgenic plants.
- Agrobacteria transformed with a vector according to the invention can also be used in a known manner to transform plants such as test plants such as Arabidopsis or crop plants such as cereals, corn, oats, rye, barley, wheat, soybeans, rice, tree

- the insertion at this point, approx. 7 bp downstream of the ORF F4F7.26, is highly likely to The transcription or transcript stability and thus the functionality for this open reading frame is destroyed.
- This ORF codes for a putative t-RNA glutamine synthetase and in particular has homology to tRNA glutamine synthetase GI: 2995454 from Lupinüs luteus.
- Line 304139 (SEQ ID NO: 104 [nucleic acid] and SEQ ID NO: 105 [protein encoded by the above nucleic acid]) was identified analogously to the abovementioned examples.
- Line 304139 segregates for an albinolethal mutation that co-segregates with the resistance marker and thus with the T-DNA.
- the T-DNA is inserted on chromosome 5, P 1 clone MFB 13, accession AB010073, in position 49311-49335. By insertion at this point, approx. 25 bp downstream of the ORF MFB13.17, the transcription or the transcript stability and thus the functionality for this open reading frame, which codes for an exonuclease-like protein, is destroyed with high probability.
- Line 304886 (SEQ ID NO: 106 [nucleic acid] and SEQ ID NO: 107 [protein encoded by the above nucleic acid]) was identified analogously to the abovementioned examples.
- Line 304886 segregates for an albinolethal mutation that co-segregates with the resistance marker and thus the T-DNA.
- the T-DNA is inserted on chromosome 2, BAC clone F23H14, section 1 of 255, accession AC006837, in position 84045.
- the ORF At2g01110 is interrupted and deactivated by the insertion at this point. This codes for a putative "sec-independent" trans-locase protein TATC (putative sec-independent protein ' t r ah S iocase protein TATC). The sequence is also described in WO 144277.
- Line 306053 segregates for an albinolethal mutation that co-segregates with the resistance marker and thus the T-DNA.
- the T-DNA is on chromosome 4, BAC clone F28J12, accession AGAL021710, in position 74806-74828. The insertion at this point interrupts and inactivates the ORF F28J12.180, which codes for a putative protein.
- the deduced amino acid sequence shows In addition to clear homologies to various hypothetical and putative proteins, there is also strong similarity to proteins similar to selenium binding proteins.
