Metabolic resistance to pre-emergence herbicides in grasses
Black-grass (Alopecurus myosuroides Huds.) and rye-grass (Lolium spp) are very competitive grass weeds. During the last decades, they have evolved resistance to post-emergence herbicides, in particular ACCase- and ALS- inhibitors.

Kin discrimination in plants: overview and implications for population and community ecology
ABSTRACT Following the discovery of identity discrimination, particularly self and kin discrimination amongst plant competitors, research on interplant interactions has advanced significantly within plant physiology and evolutionary ecology. This review synthesizes current knowledge on how both self and kin discrimination influence plant growth ...
