Fitness costs associated with evolved herbicide resistance alleles in plants [PDF]
Predictions based on evolutionary theory suggest that the adaptive value of evolved herbicide resistance alleles may be compromised by the existence of fitness costs.

Comparison of ?-acetolactate synthase and ?-acetolactate decarboxylase in Lactococcus spp. and Leuconostoc spp. [PDF]
Cell-free extracts of Leuconostoc and Lactococcus species were tested for their alpha-acetolactate synthase and alpha-acetolactate decarboxylase activities. In Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. cremoris, Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. mesenteroides and Leuconostoc lactis, the Km of alpha-acetolactate synthase for pyruvate was close to 10 mM whereas it

Weeds of the umbelliferous family (Apiaceae) are gaining importance in several crops and regions and are often difficult to control chemically. For example, the occurrence of bur chervil (Anthriscus caucalis M.

Crystallization of the FAD-independent acetolactate synthase of Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]
Leucine and valine are formed in a common pathway from pyruvate in which the first intermediate is 2-acetolactate. In some bacteria, this compound also has a catabolic fate as the starting point for the butanediol fermentation.

Resistence of Radish Biotypes to Iodosulfuron and Alternative Control [PDF]
The repetitive use of iodosulfuron for the control of weeds in winter cereals in the south of Brazil has favored the emergence of resistant Raphanus sativus biotypes.

Green foxtail (Setaria viridis) resistance to acetolactate synthase inhibitors [PDF]
Des sétaires vertes (Setaria viridis) présumées résistantes aux inhibiteurs de l'acétolactate synthase (ALS) ont été identifiées en 1999 au Wisconsin, É.-U., dans un champ de soja (Glycine max) issu d'un semis direct.

Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism Linkage Map for Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
We have constructed a restriction fragment length polymorphism linkage map for the nuclear genome of the flowering plant Arabidopsis thaliana. The map, containing 90 randomly distributed molecular markers, is physically very dense; >50% of the genome is ...

Field and laboratory assessments of sugarcane mutants selected in vitro for resistance to imazapyr herbicide [PDF]
Seven imazapyr-tolerant mutant sugarcane plants, previously generated by in vitro mutagenesis, were studied. The imazapyr concentrations required to inhibit their acetolactate synthase (ALS basal activity) (IC50 as μmoles acetoin h-1 mg-1 protein) were 0.

Stable isotope profiles reveal active production of VOCs from human-associated microbes. [PDF]
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) measured from exhaled breath have great promise for the diagnosis of bacterial infections. However, determining human or microbial origin of VOCs detected in breath remains a great challenge.

Background Diacetyl provides the buttery aroma in products such as butter and margarine. It can be made via a harsh set of chemical reactions from sugarcane bagasse, however, in dairy products it is normally formed spontaneously from α-acetolactate, a ...
