Safety assessment of biotechnology used in animal production, including genetically modified (GM) feed and GM animals - a review [PDF]
Since the beginning of the large-scale commercial cultivation of genetically modified (GM) crops in the mid-nineties, it has continuously increased.

Global herbicide-resistant weed populations continue rising due to selection pressures exerted by herbicides. Despite this, herbicides continue to be farmers’ preferred weed-control method due to cost and efficiency relative to physical or biological ...

2,4-D and Mycoleptodiscus terrestris for control of Eurasian Watermilfoil [PDF]
Growth chamber studies were conducted to evaluate the impact of an indigenous fungal pathogen, Mycoleptodiscus terrestris (Gerd.) Ostazeski, and the herbicide 2,4-D applied alone and in combination with one another, on the growth of a nuisance ...

Managing against the Development of Herbicide-Resistant Weeds: Sugarcane
Profitable sugarcane production in Florida requires effective weed management. Herbicides provide an efficient and cost-effective means of weed control, but excessive use of a single herbicide or group of herbicides with the same mechanism of action has resulted in the development of herbicide-resistant weeds. In crops such as sugarcane where a limited

Management of Herbicide-Resistant weed beet: a simulation study [PDF]
In regions of sugar beet cultivation, weed beet infestations are responsible for economic losses. Weed beet belongs to the same species as the cropped plant, thus rendering herbicide control impossible in conventional sugar beet where costly practices such as manual weeding of bolters must be carried out instead. Genetically-modified herbicide-tolerant
