Evolution of generalist resistance to herbicide mixtures reveals a trade-off in resistance management [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2020 Mixtures of antibiotics or pesticides can help reduce the evolution of resistance to individual compounds. Here, Comont et al. show that in blackgrass, an important agricultural weed, herbicide mixtures do reduce specialized resistance but instead can ...

Blackgrass (Alopecurus myosuroides Huds.) Multiple Resistance to ACCase- and ALS-Inhibitors and Its Competition with Winter Wheat [PDF]
GenesBackground/Objectives: The herbicide resistance of blackgrass (Alopecurus myosuroides Huds.) is one of the most serious problems in the winter cereal monoculture in Europe. Recently, Greek farmers expressed complaints of reduced susceptibility of this weed to winter wheat herbicides.

Target‐site and non‐target‐site mechanisms confer multiple herbicide resistance in waterhemp (Amaranthus tuberculatus) accessions from Wisconsin [PDF]
Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 6, Page 5695-5706, June 2026.The A101 accession is the first confirmed case of hydroxyphenyl pyruvate dioxygenase resistance in Amaranthus tuberculatus in Wisconsin, and the first report of P450s associated with atrazine resistance in A. tuberculatus globally. Abstract BACKGROUND A preliminary screening identified a multiple herbicide‐resistant waterhemp, Amaranthus tuberculatus ...

VERNALIZATION2 alters early tiller development in a facultative spring hexaploid bread wheat [PDF]
New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 6, Page 4022-4035, June 2026.Summary An extended period of cold exposure enables the process of vernalization in winter cereals and is important for the synchronised timing of the floral transition. The cereal‐specific floral repressor VERNALIZATION2 (VRN2) has an integral role in vernalization, yet this locus remains poorly characterised in facultative spring hexaploid wheat ...

Tolerance of blackgrass (Alopecurus myosuroide) to sylfonylurea herbicides in the Czech Republic [PDF]
Plant Protection Science, 2011 Seeds of three blackgrass populations fromSouthern Bohemiawere collected in 2007-2008. Biological tests with chlorsulfuron were performed at the 2-3 leaf stage. Some plants survived after treatment with the highest dose 37.5 g/ha. Biological tests showed

Viral‐mediated delivery of morphogenic regulators enables leaf transformation in Sorghum bicolor (L.) [PDF]
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 10, Page 4491-4499, October 2025.Summary Recent advancements in monocot transformation, using leaf tissue as explant material, have expanded the number of grass species capable of transgenesis. However, the complexity of vectors and reliance on inducible excision of essential morphogenic regulators have so far limited widespread application.

Resistance to the herbicides haloxyfop and iodosulfuron is common in commercial ryegrass (Lolium) seed lines [PDF]
Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 6, Page 2990-2996, June 2025.Eleven variety lines had resistance detected for iodosulfuron only, six to haloxyfop, and 28 to both herbicides. No seedlings were detected with resistance to glyphosate. Abstract Background Ryegrass (Lolium spp.) is a key forage providing a $14 billion contribution to New Zealand's gross domestic product (GDP). However, ryegrass can also act as a weed
