Patent ID: 7297541

Claim:
A substantially purified polynucleotide molecule comprising: (a) a polynucleotide molecule comprising a nucleotide sequence selected from the group consisting of: SEQ ID NO: 15 and SEQ ID NO: 17; (b) a polynucleotide molecule encoding a 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (“HPPD”) polypeptide or polypeptide having HPPD activity comprising a sequence selected from the group consisting of: a nucleotide sequence having at least 95% indentity to SEQ ID NO: 15 and a nucleotide sequence having at least 95% indentity to SEQ ID NO: 17; (c) a polynucleotide molecule comprising a polynucleotide sequence encoding a polypeptide comprising a sequence selected from the group consisting of: SEQ ID NO: 16 and SEQ ID NO: 18; or (d) a polynucleotide molecule comprising a polynucleotide sequence encoding a 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (“HPPD”) polypeptide or polypeptide having HPPD activity comprising a sequence selected from the group consisting of: a polypeptide sequence having at least 95% identity to SEQ ID NO: 16 and a polypeptide sequence having at least 95% identity to SEQ ID NO: 18.
