Lack of effects of glyphosate and glufosinate on growth, mineral content, and yield of glyphosate- and glufosinate-resistant maize [PDF]
Whether herbicides used in transgenic, herbicide-resistant crops have negative effects on those crops has been controversial. Most all of the data on this topic has been on glyphosate-resistant (GR) soybean, with little information available on GR and glufosinate-resistant (GluR) maize.

Field studies were conducted in 1999 and 2000 at Simcoe and Exeter, Ontario to determine the effect of glufosinate, applied alone or in combination with s-metolachlor/atrazine, on weed control and crop safety on six glufosinate-resistant Bt sweet corn ...

Remaking State Power Through a Paraquat Ban in Malaysia
ABSTRACT This paper examines the role of the state in its ability to enact environmental regulations. Specifically, this study investigates how Malaysian state actors changed, shifted and betrayed various, oftentimes competing interests to ban paraquat, an acutely toxic herbicide.

Natural glufosinate resistance of soil microorganisms and GMO safety
Bacteria and fungi from pristine soil, never exposed to glufosinate herbicide, were isolated and analyzed for glufosinate tolerance. Seven of the 15 tested isolates were sensitive to 1 mM glufosinate (an active ingredient of many nonselective contact ...

Production of EPSPS and bar gene double-herbicide resistant castor (Ricinus communis L.)
Castor (Ricinus communis L.) is one of the world's top ten oil crops. China is the second largest producer of castor beans, but China's castor bean acreage has been declining. A principal reason for this decline is the prevalence of weeds and the absence

ABSTRACT Following recent calls to deepen understanding of the Global Pesticide Complex, this article delves into the China‐to‐Australia supply chain of a single herbicide—paraquat. First released in the United Kingdom in the 1960s, acutely toxic paraquat is now primarily produced in China.

Novel Amino Acid Changes Increase Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxylase Output in planta
ABSTRACT Characterization of previously reported Arabidopsis mutants with increased aluminum (Al) resistance (alr) resulting from greater release of Al‐chelating malate identified three unique amino acid substitutions that each impacts PHOSPHOENOLPYRUVATE CARBOXYLASE 1, a key anaplerotic carbon fixation enzyme.

Characterization of acquisition of physiological quality in soybean seeds from desiccated plants
: Desiccation interrupts the acquisition of physiological quality in soybean seeds, as this quality peaks at R9. However, this interruption can be mitigated by the stage in which herbicide is applied and which herbicide is used. The aim of this study was

Abstract Corn (Zea mays L.), dry edible bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), and sugarbeet (Beta vulgaris L.) are frequently grown in rotation in the Panhandle of Nebraska. The primary weed challenges in this system are Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri S. Watson) and kochia [Bassia scoparia (L.) A.

A genetically modified soybean expressing multiple Cry proteins protects against key lepidopteran pests, consistently reducing larval damage and offering an effective resistance management option for soybean production in Brazil. Abstract BACKGROUND Pyramided Bt genes in crops have been widely adopted to delay insect resistance evolution worldwide. The
