IntroductionWeed management is a major challenge in dry direct-seeded rice (DDSR) systems due to severe weed infestation and limited selectivity of post-emergence herbicides in basmati rice.

Herbicide‐tolerant crops in agriculture: oilseed rape as a case study [PDF]
AbstractOilseed rape has been modified extensively by conventional breeding for the production of varieties useful for human consumption (blended vegetable oil and margarine) and industrial processes (rubber additives and high‐temperature lubricants). Because much is now known about its genetic and biochemical composition, it has been an obvious choice

Weeds in a changing climate: Competitors or service plants?
Reducing herbicide use and preparing agroecosystems for climate change are two top priorities on the global policy agenda. Here, we explore whether these two challenges can be tackled simultaneously. While weeds are generally considered a threat to crop production, we show that weeds can help overcome climate change challenges in agroecosystems ...

Agricultural management and environmental conditions influence the biochemical composition of food crops; however, the specific drivers of this variation remain insufficiently understood, despite their importance for climate change adaptation and human health.

Increasing canola plant density reduced flea beetle abundance per plant and increased yield, independent of region or insecticide use, highlighting its potential as a component of integrated pest management. Abstract The crucifer flea beetle, Phyllotreta cruciferae (Goeze), and the striped flea beetle, Phyllotreta striolata (Fabricius) (Coleoptera ...

GS2.2 G255D mutation conferred enzyme‐level glufosinate insensitivity but no whole‐plant resistance, showing trade‐offs between catalytic function and herbicide binding and providing a baseline for future studies on target‐site glufosinate resistance.

Developing herbicide-tolerant wheat varieties is highly desirable for effective weed management and improved crop yield. The enzyme acetolactate synthase (ALS) is the target enzyme for the sulfonylurea class of herbicides.

Over the last several decades, the intensive production of corn (Zea mays L.) and soybeans (Glycine max L.) in the United States has included the widespread use of herbicide-tolerant crops, contributing to soil management with reduced tillage.

Genotype‐by‐environment interaction shaped soybean seed stability under contrasting insecticide regimes. Seed longevity emerged as a stable, management‐relevant trait under pest pressure. High‐pressure, no‐insecticide conditions improved discrimination of tolerant genotypes for integrated pest management deployment.

Invasive and endemic weeds pose recurring challenges for California land managers. The evolution of herbicide resistance in several species has imposed new challenges in some cropping systems, and these issues are being addressed by UC Cooperative ...
