O-glucosyltransferases in wheat (triticum aeshvum) and the competing weed black-grass (alopecurus myosuroides) [PDF]
, 2003 The glucosylation of xenobiotics, catalysed by UDP-glucose dependent O-Glucosyltransferases (OGTs), is a major route of pesticide metabolism in wheat {Triticum aestivum L.).

Can we predict community-wide effects of herbicides from toxicity tests on macrophyte species? [PDF]
, 2011 Macrophyte communities play an essential role in the way freshwater ecosystems function. It is thus of great concern to understand how environmental factors, especially anthropogenic ones, influence their composition and diversity.

Efficacy of experimental herbicide products
, 2010 Plots were located in turf research area at the Guelph Turfgrass Institute, Guelph, ON. The site was an area of established turf (predominantly turf-type perennial ryegrass, infested with dandelion, clover and other lawn weeds) (Figure 1). Turf was maintained with typical medium maintenance turf regime: 1.0 kg actual N 100 m-2 per year in 3 ...

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Mancozeb is one of the most widely used agricultural fungicides, exhibiting strong efficacy against a broad spectrum of phytopathogenic fungi. However, its widespread application comes at the cost of environmental contamination. Here, we show the effects of Inga vera leaf litter contamination with Mancozeb on life‐history traits of Aedes ...

FARM-LEVEL EFFECTS OF ADOPTING HERBICIDE-TOLERANT SOYBEANS IN THE U.S.A. [PDF]
This paper estimates the on-farm impacts of adopting herbicide-tolerant soybean on herbicide use, yields, and farm profits, using an econometric model that corrects for self-selection and simultaneity and is consistent with profit maximization. The model
