Action plan for controlling Amaranthus palmeri in maize fields of Aragón (Spain): An economic assessment under uncertainty

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Invasive weeds pose a global challenge to sustainable agriculture, threatening productivity while increasing the costs and uncertainty of crop management. Using 6 years of experimental evidence, we developed and evaluated three 10‐year action plans for controlling Amaranthus palmeri in maize crops in Aragón, Spain, accounting for biological and control‐

Deciphering argumentation on the regulation of genome‐edited crops in academic publications: A systematic review

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Genome editing technologies such as CRISPR‐Cas are reshaping debates about the future of agriculture, yet disagreement over how these crops should be regulated remains widespread. This study clarifies the range of arguments used in scientific discussions about genome‐edited crops, making underlying assumptions and value judgements more visible.

Pre-Emergence Herbicides and Mulches for Weed Control in Cutting Propagation

Agronomy, 2020
Weed control is critical in cutting propagation to maximize root growth and liner quality, but hand weeding is time consuming and not cost efficient. Pre-emergence herbicides are widely used in container-grown nursery crop production, but concerns of ...

In planta analysis of the mode of action of cinmethylin and confirmation of fatty acyl‐ACP thioesterases (FATs) as primary site of action

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
In planta analysis of the mode of action of cinmethylin and confirmation of fatty acyl‐ACP thioesterases (FATs) as primary site of action. Cinmethylin inhibits FATs, disrupting eukaryotic de novo lipid biosynthesis and causing defects in cell division, elongation and integrity. We confirm FATs as the primary site of action in planta.

Characteristics of several soybean varieties (Glycine max L.) and weed management systems in an effort to increase productivity in low land rice

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems
Soybean productivity in paddy fields is influenced by variety selection and grass management practices. This study aimed to assess several soybean varieties and evaluate the impact of soil processing and weed control on Summed Dominance Ratio (SDR), as ...

ASSESSING DIFFERENT STRATEGIES FOR CONTROLLING WEEDS IN MAIZE CULTIVATION WITHIN THE DERIVED SAVANNA AGRO-ECOLOGY IN NIGERIA [PDF]

Journal of Plant Development
Maize is the second most cultivated crop in Nigeria in terms of hectares of land. In the world it ranks fourth amongst cultivated cereals. However, its cultivation is faced with different challenges ranging from biotic to abiotic factors.

The first RNAi‐based biopesticide approved in the United States: regulatory implications for the European Union – the case of Ledprona (Calantha™)

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
The approval of the RNA interference‐based biopesticide Ledprona (Calantha™) in the USA marks a milestone for RNA‐based crop protection. We discuss the regulatory implications for the European Union, highlighting opportunities, challenges, and the need for adapted risk assessment frameworks for RNA‐based plant protection products.

Efficacy and Rice Phytotoxicity of Different Tank-Mix Ratios of Pre-Emergence Herbicide in Boro Rice Under Zero Till Non-Puddled Condition

Fundamental and Applied Agriculture
Tank-mixing two or more chemical groups of either pre- or post-emergence herbicide may be very beneficial for the efficient control of weeds in a heterogeneous population.

Comprehensive analysis of microtubule‐inhibiting herbicides reveals shared subcellular phenotypes and distinct resistance profiles

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Using cellular phenotyping and resistance profiling, we show that herbicides across the Herbicide Resistance Action Committee (HRAC) Groups 3 and 23 induce indistinguishable, dose‐dependent microtubule defects. Resistance patterns, rather than cellular phenotypes, reveal distinct sites of action and support reclassifying Group 3 as α‐tubulin binders ...

Identifying resistance‐conferring cytochrome P450s in weeds: experimental strategies and practical considerations

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Identifying resistance‐conferring cytochrome P450s requires integrating weed characterization, gene discovery and functional validation. No single approach is sufficient to distinguish causal resistance genes from herbicide‐metabolizing enzymes. Abstract Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s) play a pivotal role in metabolic herbicide resistance, yet ...
