Polygenes

Simulation modelling identifies polygenic basis of herbicide resistance in a weed population and predicts rapid evolution of herbicide resistance at low herbicide rates

Roberto Busi weighs seeds in lab

The potential for low rates of diclofop-methyl to result in rapid evolution of herbicide resistance in a herbicide-susceptible Lolium rigidum (annual ryegrass) population was demonstrated in a recent cropfield study.
