(US8859856) The invention claimed is: 1. A method for controlling weeds in an area or a field which contains a plant or a seed, which method comprises applying, to the area or the field, a dose of a HPPD inhibitor herbicide which is toxic for said weeds, without significantly affecting the seed or the plant, wherein the plant or the seed comprises a chimeric gene comprising a coding sequence operably linked to a plant-expressible promoter, the coding sequence comprises a nucleic acid sequence which encodes a Kordia hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) protein according to SEQ ID No. 4 from amino acid position 2 to amino acid position 387. 2. The method for controlling weeds according to claim 1, characterized in that the HPPD inhibitor herbicide is selected from the group consisting of isoxaflutole, tembotrione, mesotrione, sulcotrione, pyrasulfotole, topramezone, 2-cyano-3-cyclopropyl-1-(2-SO2CH3-4-CF3phenyl)propane-1,3-dione and 2-cyano-3-cyclopropyl-1-(2-SO2CH3-4-2,3 Cl2 phenyl)propane-1,3-dione, bicyclopyrone, benzobicyclon, tefuryltrione, diketonitrile, and pyrazoxyfen. 3. A method for obtaining oil or meal comprising growing a plant comprising a chimeric gene comprising a coding sequence operably linked to a plant-expressible promoter, the coding sequence comprises a nucleic acid sequence which encodes a Kordia hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) protein according to SEQ ID No. 4 from amino acid position 2 to amino acid position 387, treating the plant with a HPPD inhibitor herbicide, harvesting grains from the plant and milling the grains to make meal, and optionally extracting oil from the grains. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the method is for controlling weeds in an area or a field which contains said plant. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the method is for controlling weeds in an area or a field which contains said seed. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the chimeric gene comprises the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID No. I from nucleotide position 4 to nucleotide position 1164, or the nucleic acid sequence of SEQ ID No. 3 from nucleotide position 400 to nucleotide position 1557. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the chimeric gene comprises, upstream of the HPPD coding sequence, a nucleic acid sequence which encodes a transit peptide active in plants so that a transit peptide/HPPD fusion protein is encoded by said chimeric gene. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the plant or the seed further comprises a chimeric gene encoding a prephenate dehydrogenase (PDH) enzyme. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein the plant or the seed further comprises one or more chimeric genes conferring tolerance to (a) a growth regulator herbicide; or (b) a herbicide inhibiting enzyme, wherein the enzyme is selected from the group consisting of (i) acetolactate synthase, (ii) 5-enolpyruvylshikimate (EPSP) synthase and (iii) glutamine synthase; or (c) a combination thereof. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the growth regulator herbicide is selected from the group consisting of 2,4-D and dicamba. 11. The method of claim 3, wherein the plant is selected from the group consisting of soya, corn, cotton, and grain.
