Sunflower resistance to acetolactate synthase-inhibiting herbicides [PDF]
Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical, 2012 Sunflower is very sensitive to herbicides applied in post-emergence to control broad-leaf weeds. Researchers have developed herbicide-resistant genotypes to imidazolinone herbicides.

Acetolactate Synthase-Inhibiting Gametocide Amidosulfuron Causes Chloroplast Destruction, Tissue Autophagy, and Elevation of Ethylene Release in Rapeseed. [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2017 Background: Acetolactate synthase (ALS)-inhibiting herbicides amidosulfuron (Hoestar) is an efficient gametocide that can induce male sterility in rapeseed (Brassica napus L.).

Pro-197 mutations confer resistance to thiencarbazone but not to foramsulfuron in ALS-resistant Poa annua populations. [PDF]
Pest Manag SciForamsulfuron remains effective on Pro‐197 Poa annua, but co‐formulation with thiencarbazone reduces efficacy due to limited activity and antagonism. Therefore, foramsulfuron + thiencarbazone should be used in fields without ALS‐resistant weeds to ensure effective in‐crop control.

Acetolactate synthase regulatory subunits play divergent and overlapping roles in branched-chain amino acid synthesis and Arabidopsis development. [PDF]
BMC Plant Biol, 2017 Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) are synthesized by plants, fungi, bacteria, and archaea with plants being the major source of these amino acids in animal diets. Acetolactate synthase (ALS) is the first enzyme in the BCAA synthesis pathway.

A versatile method for designing biosensors via regulatory domains of allosteric enzymes [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsGenetically encoded fluorescent biosensors (GEFBs) are invaluable tools for spatiotemporal metabolite monitoring in cellular metabolism, yet their development for many key metabolites is hampered by a lack of specific biorecognition elements.
