A plant comprising SEQ. ID. NO. 2 or a functional portion thereof, wherein SEQ ID NO. 2 is not native to said plant. A glyphosate resistant grass of economic value comprises a nucleic acid molecule that encodes a EPSPS enzyme. In some embodiments, the nucleic acid molecule comprises a sequence of SEQ. ID. NO. 1, or a functional portion thereof. In some embodiments, the EPSPS enzyme can be a polypeptide molecule comprising an amino acid sequence that is essentially of SEQ. ID. NO. 2, or portion thereof. Embodiments include a DNA construct comprising a SEQ. ID. NO. 1 or a functional portion thereof and transgenic methods for inserting the DNA construct into a plant. Some embodiments include non-transgenic glyphosate resistant turfgrasses.

An isolated glyphosate resistant gene obtained from the germplasm deposited under American Type Cultural Collection as Penner Ryegrass PTA-8157 deposited Jan. 19, 2007.
An isolated nucleic acid molecule obtained from the germplasm deposited under American Type Cultural Collection as Penner Ryegrass PTA-8157 deposited Jan. 19, 2007 comprising SEQ ID NO:1 or a functional portion thereof.
A DNA construct comprising a polynucleotide segment that has a base sequence of SEQ ID NO:1, or a functional portion thereof, and that encodes SEQ ID NO:2, the polynucleotide segment being operably attached to expression regulatory elements that can be used by a host cell to express a 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) polypeptide encoded by the polynucleotide segment.
A recombinant DNA molecule comprising a structural DNA segment that encodes a 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) polypeptide comprising sequence of SEQ ID NO:2, or a functional portion thereof, operably linked to expression regulatory elements that can be used by a host cell to express the EPSPS polypeptide or peptide encoded by the structural DNA segment.
