Bixlozone Metabolism in Crop and Weed Species: A Basis for Selectivity and Evolved Resistance

Metabolism of Bixlozone was investigated to selectively control annual ryegrass (Lolium rigidum) in Australian cereal and canola crops. The metabolic fate of bixlozone on seedlings…

Interactions between prosulfocarb and trifluralin metabolism in annual ryegrass (Lolium rigidum)

Metabolism of prosulfocarb and trifluralin was investigated in L. rigidum populations with different levels of resistance to prosulfocarb, trifluralin and also pyroxasulfone, which is detoxified by glutathione (GSH) conjugation.

A novel mutation in SoIAA20 confers cross-resistance to 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and other auxinic herbicides in Sonchus oleraceus

The paired deletion flanking the degron region of SoIAA20 likely provides resistance to 2,4-D by restricting the movement of 2,4-D from the treated tissue to the rest of the plant.

Characterisation of low-level pyrasulfotole resistance and the role of herbicide translocation in wild radish (Raphanus raphanistrum)

Previous studies have shown a wide range of 2,4-D translocation phenotypes in resistant populations of the agricultural weed Raphanus raphanistrum, but it was hypothesised that enhanced movement out of the apical meristem could contribute to resistance.

Focus on the Crop Not the Weed: Canola Identification for Precision Weed Management Using Deep Learning

This paper uses deep learning to explore a novel approach via targeted segmentation mapping of crop plants rather than weeds, focusing on canola (Brassica napus) as the target crop.
