Benzoxazinoids (BXs) are plant secondary metabolites, first discovered in the 1950s, which are synthesized in many monocotyledonous species from the Poaceae family and in several dicotyledonous plants. They constitute a significant element of the plant’s defence mechanism against both biotic (pests and diseases) and abiotic (elevated salinity, heavy metals) stresses. The aim of this research was to gain more information on the genetic background of BXs biosynthesis in rye ( Secale cereale  L.) by isolating and sequencing the  ScBx6  L318  and  ScBx7  L318  genes encoding 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase and 7- O -methyltransferase, respectively. Using the modified Amplicon Express method, BAC clones containing the  ScBx6  L318  and  ScBx7  L318  genes were isolated and sequenced. The similarity between the  ScBx6  L318  and  ZmBx6  genes were, correspondingly, 78% and 68% in the coding sequence ( cds ) and the amino acid sequence (AA). A lesser similarity was found between the  ScBx7  L318  and  ZmBx7  genes (72% and 45% at the  cds  and AA levels, respectively) .
