          Background

          DL-phosphinothricin interferes with the synthesis of the amino acid, glutamine.Toxicity of DL-phosphinothricin arises from glutamine shortages which can lead to an inability to detoxify ammonia and suppress photosynthesis activity.

      • Applications
        • Application Description
          Plant Biology Applications: DL-Phosphinothricin is a broad spectrum herbicide used to inhibit growth of unwanted plants. As an herbicide, DL-Phosphinothricin can be used as selection marker as well since resistance can be transferred by genetic transformation. McPhee and co-workers (2004) used glufosinate ammonium for selecting successfully transformed Pea plantlets.
