Rapid Evolution of Herbicide Resistance by Low Herbicide Dosages

Roberto Busi weighs seeds in lab

Herbicide rate cutting is an example of poor use of agrochemicals that can have potential adverse implications due to rapid herbicide resistance evolution. Recent laboratory-level studies have revealed that herbicides at lower-than-recommended rates can result in rapid herbicide resistance evolution in rigid ryegrass populations.
