Abstract
Sugar beet plants which are resistant to both imidazolinone and sulfonylurea herbicides are described. The sugar beet plants are derived from susceptible cells by sequential selection of SU-R cells, plant regeneration, and re-selection for IM-R. The resistant sugar beet plants derived from the cells can be grown in fields where imidazolinones and sulfonylureas have been used for weed control.
