Glyphosate is a widely used non-selective herbicide with broad spectrum of weed control around the world. At present, most of the commercial glyphosate tolerant soybeans utilize glyphosate tolerant gene CP4-EPSPS or glyphosate acetyltransferase gene GAT separately. In this study, both glyphosate tolerant gene G2-EPSPS and glyphosate degraded gene GAT were co-transferred into soybean and transgenic plants showed high tolerance to glyphosate. Molecular analysis including PCR, Sothern blot, qRT-PCR, and Western blot revealed that target genes have been integrated into genome and expressed effectively at both mRNA and protein levels. Furthermore, the glyphosate tolerance analysis showed that no typical symptom was observed when compared with a glyphosate tolerant line HJ06-698 derived from GR1 transgenic soybean even at fourfold labeled rate of Roundup. Chlorophyll and shikimic acid content analysis of transgenic plant also revealed that these two indexes were not significantly altered after glyphosate application. These results indicated that co-expression of G2-EPSPS and GAT conferred high tolerance to the herbicide glyphosate in soybean. Therefore, combination of tolerant and degraded genes provides a new strategy for developing glyphosate tolerant transgenic crops.

Genetically modified (GM) herbicide-tolerant soybean 'Zhonghuang 6106', which introduces a glyphosate-resistant gene, ensures soybean yield while allowing farmers to reduce the use of other herbicides, thereby reducing weed management costs. To protect consumer rights and facilitate government supervision, we have established a simple and rapid on-site nucleic acid detection method for GM soybean 'Zhonghuang 6106'. This method leverages the isothermal amplification characteristics of RPA technology and the high specificity of CRISPR-Cas12a to achieve high sensitivity and accuracy in detecting GM soybean components.

Long-term use of the global non-selective herbicide glyphosate for weed control has caused resistance in weeds. Overproducing of the target of glyphosate 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) is one of the resistance mechanisms in weeds. However, few studies have measured the effects on tolerance levels and metabolite content in model plant species overexpressing from weeds.

Developing simple and efficient multi-gene expression systems is crucial for multi-trait improvement or bioproduction in transgenic plants. In previous research, an -based bicistronic system from the nonpathogenic fungus efficiently expressed multiple enzyme proteins in yeast and maize, and the heterologous enzymes successfully performed their catalytic activity to reconstruct the biosynthetic pathway in the host organism. Unlike enzyme proteins, some heterologous functional proteins (such as insecticidal proteins) are dose-dependent and they need to express sufficient levels to perform their biological functions.

Transgenic soybean [Glycine max(L.) Merrill] currently covers approximately 80% of the global crop area for this species, with the majority of transgenic plants being glyphosate resistant (Roundup Ready, GR or RR). However, there is significant concern regarding the potential effects of GM crops and their byproducts on soil microbial communities.

Glyphosate (Gly), the world's most widely used herbicide in agriculture, can poison the red swamp crayfish, Procambarus clarkii, via spray drift and surface runoff into surface waters. However, there is a paucity of research on the mechanisms that affect crayfish tolerance to Gly at typical environmental concentrations. To address this research gap, we investigated the effects of Gly stress (0, 6, 12, 24, and 72 h) at different concentrations (0, 1.
