Soybean event 3560.4.3.5 and compositions and methods for the identification and/or detection thereof
First Claim
1. A method for improving yield in a soybean plant comprising treating said soybean plant with an effective amount of glyphosate, wherein said soybean plant comprises a 3560.4.3.5 soybean plant or a plant that is a progeny of a plant grown from seeds of ATCC Seed Deposit PTA-8287, and wherein said soybean plant further comprises a polynucleotide sequence encoding a polypeptide that imparts tolerance to glyphosate by a mode of action different than glyphosate N-acetyltransferase.

Abstract
Compositions and methods related to transgenic glyphosate/ALS inhibitor-tolerant soybean plants are provided. Specifically, soybean plants having a 3560.4.3.5 event which imparts tolerance to glyphosate and at least one ALS-inhibiting herbicide are provided. The soybean plant harboring the 3560.4.3.5 event at the recited chromosomal location comprises genomic/transgene junctions having at least the polynucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO:10 and/or 11. The characterization of the genomic insertion site of the 3560.4.3.5 event provides for an enhanced breeding efficiency and enables the use of molecular markers to track the transgene insert in the breeding populations and progeny thereof. Various methods and compositions for the identification, detection, and use of the soybean 3560.4.3.5 events are provided. Methods and compositions for increasing yield are also provided.
