Engineering herbicide tolerance into crops

Trends in Biotechnology, 1990
Abstract Herbicide treatments of crops allow economic weed control and provide cost-effective increases in agricultural productivity. Although herbicides currently in use combine a high degree of effectiveness with favourable production costs, non-toxicity and rapid biodegradation, they often lack selectivity, thus limiting their use to pre-emergence ...

Genetically Modified Herbicide-Tolerant Crops, Weeds, and Herbicides: Overview and Impact

Environmental Management, 2015
Genetically modified (GM) crops have been and continue to be a subject of controversy despite their rapid adoption by farmers where approved. For the last two decades, an important matter of debate has been their impact on pesticide use, particularly for herbicide-tolerant (HT) crops. Some claim that these crops bring about a decrease in herbicide use,

Herbicide-tolerant mutants of corn

Genome, 1989
Eight imidazolinone herbicide resistant corn cell lines were obtained from in vitro cell culture selections. Plants were regenerated from five of the lines and resistant progeny obtained from four. Of the four, one line showed cross resistance to a sulfonylurea herbicide (class A), while three lines were resistant only to imidazolinones (class B). The

Tolerance of Sugarcane Varieties to Herbicides

Weed Science, 1968
Five herbicides were applied postemergence to three Louisiana sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) varieties. Nine or 12 lb/A of 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea (diuron) severely injured varieties C.P. 44-101 and C.P. 52-68, but variety N.Co. 310 was not affected. Conversely, N.Co.

Herbicide Tolerance of Established Buffalograss

Crop, Forage & Turfgrass Management, 2017
Core Ideas Proper calibration and application is important when using herbicides on buffalograss. Established ‘Bowie’ buffalograss was most tolerant to carfentrazone + quinclorac, halosulfuron, indaziflam, quinclorac, quinclorac + MCCP + dicamba, simazine, sulfosulfuron, or thiencarbazone + iodosulfuron + dicamba.

Characterization of 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenases, inhibition by herbicides and engineering for herbicide tolerance in crops

Pesticide Biochemistry and Physiology, 2019
4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxgenase (HPPD) enzymes from rat and from several plants contained only about a single inhibitor-binding active site per dimer which matched the content of iron in the purified Arabidopsis thaliana and Avena sativa enzymes. The dimeric HPPDs were about 10 fold more catalytically active than the tetrameric P. fluorescens enzyme

Varietal Tolerance of Rice to Herbicides

Madras Agricultural Journal, 1976
Twenty nine rice varieties were tested for their tolerance to herbicides. At normal doses (3.5 kg a. i./ha) propanit did not cause mortality of plant but inflicted a mild chloro- sis in Karuna, Co. 36, Krishna, Vaigal, IR. 8. Kannski, TKM, 6. Cauvery, ADT. 27 and GEB, 24 and severe chlorosis in PTB, 10, ASD. 5, BAM. 3. Bhavani, IR. 5, Jaganath, Pennal,

Herbicide Tolerant Forest Trees

2000
At the vanguard of biotechnological applications to agriculture are the transgenic annual field crops, and already in the USA alone, there are millions of hectares of transgenic cotton, corn, soybean and canola whose produce is being traded in commerce and the areas are increasing almost exponentially.

Toxicity of the herbicides used on herbicide-tolerant crops, and societal consequences of their use in France

Drug and Chemical Toxicology, 2020
In France, the implementation of mutant herbicide-tolerant crops and the use of the related herbicides - sulfonylureas and imidazolinones - have triggered a strong societal reaction illustrated by the intervening actions of environmentalist groups illegally mowing such crops.

Optimizing Herbicide Use in Herbicide-Tolerant Crops: Challenges, Opportunities, and Recommendations

2019
Rapid, large-scale adoption of herbicide-tolerant (HT) cropping systems is attributed to recent shifts in herbicide use patterns globally. With the dramatic increase in herbicide use, particularly glyphosate, herbicides’ diversity for weed management has consequently declined, resulting in increased herbicide-resistant (HR) weed species, weed ...
