Weeds in a changing climate: Competitors or service plants?

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
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 ...

Pisolithus sp. tolerance to glyphosate and isoxaflutole in vitro

open access: yesRevista Árvore, 2014
The ectomycorrhizal fungi have different tolerance to herbicides and may promote the survival and growth of the eucalypts tree. This study aimed to evaluate the tolerance of Pisolithus sp. isolates to glyphosate and isoxaflutole.

Effect of Prices, Traits and Market Structure on Corn Seeding Density [PDF]

open access: yes
Recent agronomic research finds that economically optimal seeding densities have likely increased for many Midwestern corn farmers as a result of genetic improvements including new GM traits such as Bt corn and herbicide tolerance.

Combined effects of canola plant density and insecticide management strategies on flea beetle abundance, canola defoliation, and yield across the Canadian prairies

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
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 ...

Biodiversity versus Transgenic Sugar Beet: The One Euro Question [PDF]

open access: yes
The decision of whether to release transgenic crops in the EU is one subject to flexibility, uncertainty, and irreversibility. We analyse the case of herbicide tolerant sugar beet and reassess whether the 1998 de facto moratorium of the EU on transgenic ...

Weed problems and possibilities for their control in salix for biomass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Salix is a dedicated arable bioenergy crop that is presently grown on 12,000 ha in Sweden. It has probably the best environmental profile among the arable bioenergy crops grown in Sweden partly because neither fungicides nor insecticides are used in the ...

Development and application of KASP assays to differentiate between Sorghum bicolor, halepense, and their hybrids

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
A panel showing the morphological differences between Sorghum halepense (A), hybrids (B), and Sorghum bicolor (C) with a novel KASP‐based genetic assay capable of reliably distinguishing between them. Partially Created in BioRender. https://BioRender.com/1u30ukv Abstract BACKGROUND Sorghum bicolor and Sorghum halepense can readily hybridize, creating ...

Tomato: a crop species amenable to improvement by cellular and molecular methods [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Tomato is a crop plant with a relatively small DNA content per haploid genome and a well developed genetics. Plant regeneration from explants and protoplasts is feasable which led to the development of efficient transformation procedures.

Target‐site and non‐target‐site mechanisms confer multiple herbicide resistance in waterhemp (Amaranthus tuberculatus) accessions from Wisconsin

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
The A101 accession is the first confirmed case of hydroxyphenyl pyruvate dioxygenase resistance in Amaranthus tuberculatus in Wisconsin, and the first report of P450s associated with atrazine resistance in A. tuberculatus globally. Abstract BACKGROUND A preliminary screening identified a multiple herbicide‐resistant waterhemp, Amaranthus tuberculatus ...
