Understanding the dynamic nature of plant lipid anabolic and catabolic metabolism is key to sustainable oilseed engineering. [PDF]
Summary Plant‐derived oils are essential sources of reduced carbon and various fatty acid (FA) structures for food, biofuels, and the oleochemical industry. Despite extensive efforts, engineering mainstream oilseed crops to produce high levels of industrially valuable unusual FAs (UFAs) remains challenging.

Insights into ALS-inhibiting herbicide resistance in Poa annua in an arable cropping system. [PDF]
Variable cross‐resistance to ALS inhibitors in five Poa annua populations from wheat fields in Ireland caused by different TSR mutations. Abstract BACKGROUND Dependence on a single herbicide type to control a broad‐spectrum of weeds has resulted in cases of resistance to acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibitors in weeds normally considered lower priority

Growth inhibition of arable weeds by cerato-platanin, a plant immune defense activator of fungal origin. [PDF]
Plants possess an innate immune system able to detect pathogens' molecules such as cerato‐platanin (CP), a protein produced by the fungus Ceratocystis platani. This study shows that the application of this protein elicitor to weeds can be exploited as a novel herbicide mode of action.

Phylogenetic Analysis of Nucleus-Encoded Acetyl-CoA Carboxylases Targeted at the Cytosol and Plastid of Algae. [PDF]
The understanding of algal phylogeny is being impeded by an unknown number of events of horizontal gene transfer (HGT), and primary and secondary/tertiary endosymbiosis.

Development of cytosine and adenine base editors for maize precision breeding. [PDF]
A series of maize cytosine and adenine base editors was developed using various deaminase variants, enabling efficient multiplex genome editing in maize. Precise editing of the ZmACC1/2 genes generated herbicide‐tolerant maize germplasm, offering a solution for weed management in maize‐soybean intercropping systems.

A novel W1999S mutation and non-target site resistance impact on acetyl-CoA carboxylase inhibiting herbicides to varying degrees in a UK Lolium multiflorum population. [PDF]
Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) inhibiting herbicides are important products for the post-emergence control of grass weed species in small grain cereal crops.

AbstractResearch was conducted using a functional malachite green colorimetric assay to evaluate acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase (ACCase) activity previously identified as resistant to sethoxydim and select aryloxyphenoxypropionate (FOPs) herbicides, fenoxaprop, and fluazifop. Two resistant southern crabgrass [Digitaria ciliaris (Retz.) Koeler] biotypes,

Mutations in the plastidic ACCase gene endowing resistance to ACCase-inhibiting herbicide in Phalaris minor populations from India [PDF]
Littleseed canarygrass (Phalaris minor Retz.) is one of the most common and troublesome weeds infesting wheat crop in India. Repeated use during the last two decades of the ACCase-inhibiting herbicide (clodinafop) to control this weed has resulted in the occurrence of resistance. Fifty-three P.

Biochemical and structural characterization of quizalofop-resistant wheat acetyl-CoA carboxylase
A novel nucleotide mutation in ACC1 resulting in an alanine to valine amino acid substitution in acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) at position 2004 of the Alopecurus myosuroides reference sequence (A2004V) imparts quizalofop resistance in wheat.
