Population genetics and origin of the native North American agricultural weed waterhemp (Amaranthus tuberculatus; Amaranthaceae).
UNLABELLED • PREMISE OF THE STUDY The evolution of invasiveness has been extensively studied in natural ecosystems; however, far less is known about the evolution of agricultural invasiveness, despite the major economic impact of weeds on crop productivity. Examining the population structure of recently arisen weeds can provide insights into evolutionary avenues to invasion of agroecosystems....
متن کاملMetabolism of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid contributes to resistance in a common waterhemp (Amaranthus tuberculatus) population.
BACKGROUND Synthetic auxins such as 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) have been widely used for selective control of broadleaf weeds since the mid-1940s. In 2009, an Amaranthus tuberculatus (common waterhemp) population with 10-fold resistance to 2,4-D was found in Nebraska, USA. The 2,4-D resistance mechanism was examined by conducting [14 C] 2,4-D absorption, translocation and metabolism...
متن کاملGlyphosate Resistance in Tall Waterhemp (Amaranthus tuberculatus) from Mississippi is due to both Altered Target-Site and Nontarget-Site Mechanisms
A tall waterhemp population from Missisippi was suspected to be resistant to glyphosate. Glyphosate dose response experiments resulted in GR50 (dose required to reduce plant growth by 50%) values of 1.28 and 0.28 kg ae ha 21 glyphosate for the glyphosate-resistant (GR) and -susceptible (GS) populations, respectively, indicating a five-fold resistance. The absorption pattern of C-glyphosate betw...
متن کاملAmplified fragment length polymorphism-based genetic relationships among weedy Amaranthus species.
Weedy Amaranthus species frequently cause economically significant reductions in crop yields. Accurate identification of Amaranthus species is important for efficient weed control, but Amaranthus species can interbreed, which might cause difficulty when identifying hybrid-derived specimens. To determine which of several economically important weedy Amaranthus species are most genetically simila...
متن کاملWeed Risk Assessment: Amaranthus spinosus
Description: An annual herb reproducing by seed only. Distinguished by flowers and pairs of spiny bracts that occur in the leaf axils. Mature plants are erect, branched and may grow to 1.2 m tall (see Figure 1). Stems are angled in cross section, reddish, fleshy and bear many spines. Leaves are alternate, ovate-rhombic to lanceolate sometimes with sparse hairs on the lower surface and most with...
