Continued overexpression of EPSPS transgene enhances fitness in multigeneration crop–wild rice hybrids and its long-term environmental impact [PDF]
Transgene flow from genetically engineered (GE) crops to their wild relatives has aroused worldwide biosafety concerns. Environmental impact caused by transgene flow from GE glyphosate herbicide-tolerant rice overexpressing the endogenous EPSPS (5 ...

Rethinking the Intrinsic Sensitivity of Fungi to Glyphosate
The 5-enolpyruvylshikimate 3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) is the central enzyme of the shikimate pathway to synthesize the three aromatic amino acids in fungi, plants, and prokaryotes. This enzyme is the target of the herbicide glyphosate.

Simultaneous expression of 5-enol pyruvyl shikimate 3-phosphate synthase (epsps) and glyphosate oxidoreductase (gox) in transgenic canola plants towards enhancing resistance to glyphosate herbicide [PDF]
Canola (Brassica napus L.) is known as one of the most important oil-producing plants worldwide that has a high food value. Today, expansion of planting area of this plant has been highly considered.

The First Case of Glyphosate Resistance in Johnsongrass (Sorghum halepense (L.) Pers.) in Europe
Six Johnsongrass populations suspected of being glyphosate resistant were collected from railways and freeways near Cordoba (SW Spain), where glyphosate is the main weed control tool.

Investigating the Phenophysiological Traits of Transgenic Rapeseed Lines (Brassica napus) with aroA Gene Harboring a Point Mutation of Proline 101 to Serine (P101S) under Glyphosate Herbicide Treatment [PDF]
One of the most effective ways to breed glyphosate-resistant plants is to reduce the affinity of glyphosate to the EPSPS enzyme by manipulating the aroA gene. In this study, P101S mutation was induced in the aroA of E. coli and the mutant gene was cloned

Degradation of CP4-EPSPS with a Psychrophilic Bacterium Stenotrophomonas maltophilia 780
CP4-EPSPS (Agrobacterium sp. strain CP4 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase) protein showed remarkable thermostability and was highly resistant to proteases, such as trypsin.
