Biochemical and structural characterization of quizalofop-resistant wheat acetyl-CoA carboxylase.

ABSTRACT: A novel nucleotide mutation in ACC1 resulting in an alanine to valine amino acid substitution in acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) at position 2004 of the Alopecurus myosuroides reference sequence (A2004V) imparts quizalofop resistance in wheat. Genotypes endowed with the homozygous mutation in one or two ACC1 homoeologs are seven- and 68-fold more resistant to quizalofop than a wildtype winter wheat in greenhouse experiments, respectively. In vitro ACCase activities in soluble protein extracts from these varieties are 3.8- and 39.4-fold more resistant to quizalofop with the homozygous mutation in either one or two genomes, relative to the wildtype. The A2004V mutation does not alter the specific activity of wheat ACCase, suggesting that this resistance trait does not affect the catalytic fu
