paraquat
Identification of resistance to either paraquat or ALS-inhibiting herbicides in two Western Australian Hordeum leporinum biotypes
Hordeum populations are becoming increasingly difficult to control in cropping fields. Two herbicide-resistant H. leporinum populations were identified during a random crop survey after herbicides were applied. The study aimed to determine the herbicide resistance profile of these H. leporinum biotypes to a range of herbicides used for their control.
Evolved Resistance to Glyphosate in Junglerice (Echinochloa colona) from the Tropical Ord River Region in Australia
The objective of this study was to determine whether a junglerice population from the tropical Ord River region of northwest Australia was glyphosate resistant, and whether alternative herbicides labeled for junglerice control were still effective.
Reduced Sensitivity to paraquat evolves under selection with low glyphosate doses in lolium rigidum
This is the first report of low-dose glyphosate selection causing a shift towards paraquat resistance. Herbicide resistance in weed species is a serious threat to world agriculture. We report rapid resistance evolution in the genetically variable cross-pollinated grass weed Lolium rigidum when recurrently selected with low doses.
