Abstract

1. Chimeric gene containing several herbicide tolerance genes, plant cell and plant which are tolerant to several herbicides.2. The plant is tolerant to several herbicides at the same time, in particular to the inhibitors of HPPD and to those of EPSPS and/or to the dihalohydroxybenzonitriles.3. Use for removing weeds from plants with several herbicides.
