Abstract Late watergrass [ Echinochloa phyllopogon (Stapf) Koss.] has evolved multiple-resistance (MR) to herbicides in many areas worldwide and scientists wonder if this resistance imposed fitness cost or advantage on the resistant biotypes. As of weed also been recorded Greece, one susceptible (S), with ALS (penoxsulam, bispyribac, imazamox nicosulfuron + rimsulfuron) ACCase-cyhalofop (MRAC) ...

Glyamifop (R&D code: FG001), (R)-(2-(4-(6-chlorobenzoxazol-2-oxy) phenoxy) propionyl) glycine ethyl ester is a newly developed aryloxyphenoxypropionate (HRAC Group 1) herbicide for weed control in paddy fields. This work determined the effect of on weeds and its safety rice glasshouse. controlled common gramineous fields at 100 g a.i. ha−1: fresh weight inhibition rates Echinochloa crus-gal...

Context Wild oats (Avena spp.), brome grass (Bromus spp.) and barley (Hordeum are significant weeds of crop production in south-eastern Australia. The presence herbicide resistance these weed species is a major limiting factor on both productivity profitability.Aims We aimed to determine the distribution across Australia.Methods Several surveys were conducted randomly selected fields four state...

Laboratory studies were conducted to compare the relative fitness of clodinafop-propargyl herbicide resistant Lolium rigidum accessions with their clodinafop-propargyl susceptible counterparts in 2014. Factors evaluated were Lolium populations at constant salinity stress (0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 dS cm2) and water stress (0, -3, -6, -9, -12 and -15 bar). The maximum germination in salinity stres...

The South African old-age social pension has been much studied by both researchers and policy makers, in part for the larger lessons that might be learned about behavioral responses to cash transfers in developing countries. In this paper, we quantify the labor supply responses of prime-aged individuals to changes in the presence of old-age pensioners in their households, using longitudinal dat...

Glyphosate-resistance evolution in weeds is evident globally, especially in areas where transgenic glyphosate-resistant crops dominate. Resistance to glyphosate is currently known in 16 weed species, including rigid ryegrass in Australia. Following the first report of glyphosate resistance in 1998, there are now 78 documented glyphosate-resistant populations of rigid ryegrass in grain-growing r...

Various mutations altering the herbicide target site (TS), can lead to structural modifications that decrease binding efficiency and results in herbicide resistant weed. In most cases, such a mutation will be associated with ecological fitness penalty under herbicide free environmental conditions. Here we describe the effect of various mutations, endowing resistance to acetyl-CoA carboxylase (A...
