Confronting herbicide resistance with cooperative management [PDF]
AbstractBACKGROUNDResistance of pathogens and pests to antibiotics and pesticides worldwide is rapidly reaching critical levels. The common‐pool‐resource nature of this problem (i.e. whereby the susceptibility to treatment of target organisms is a shared resource) has been largely overlooked.

Omics Potential in Herbicide-Resistant Weed Management [PDF]
The rapid development of omics technologies has drastically altered the way biologists conduct research. Basic plant biology and genomics have incorporated these technologies, while some challenges remain for use in applied biology. Weed science, on the whole, is still learning how to integrate omics technologies into the discipline; however, omics ...

Framework for an expert evaluation for the evolution of weed resistance
The apparent rate of evolution of resistance of weeds to herbicides has increased substantially over the past decade. Data suggests phenotypic expression is affected by the mechanism of action of the herbicide, the taxonomy of the weed, the extent and ...

Current Status of Herbicide Resistance in the Iberian Peninsula: Future Trends and Challenges
The evolution of herbicide resistance in weeds has emerged as one of the most serious threats to sustainable food production systems, which necessitates the evaluation of herbicides to determine their efficacy.

Is herbicide resistance an undissolute problem?
Recently, Weed Science journal published a special issue on weed resistance to herbicides (Weed Science, Volume 64, 2016), regarding many issues on the importance and the impact of the weed resistance on agronomic and social aspects.

Herbicide-Resistant Crops: Utilities and Limitations for Herbicide-Resistant Weed Management
Since 1996, genetically modified herbicide-resistant (HR) crops, particularly glyphosate-resistant (GR) crops, have transformed the tactics that corn, soybean, and cotton growers use to manage weeds. The use of GR crops continues to grow, but weeds are adapting to the common practice of using only glyphosate to control weeds.

Fitness of Herbicide-Resistant Weeds: Current Knowledge and Implications for Management
Herbicide resistance is the ultimate evidence of the extraordinary capacity of weeds to evolve under stressful conditions. Despite the extraordinary plant fitness advantage endowed by herbicide resistance mutations in agroecosystems under herbicide ...

Evolutionary-thinking in agricultural weed management [PDF]
Agricultural weeds evolve in response to crop cultivation. Nevertheless, the central importance of evolutionary ecology for understanding weed invasion, persistence and management in agroecosystems is not widely acknowledged.
