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.

Defining Integrated Weed Management: A Novel Conceptual Framework for Models
Weed population dynamics models are an important tool for predicting the outcome of alternative Integrated Weed Management (IWM) scenarios. The growing problem of herbicide resistance has increased the urgency for these tools in the design of sustainable

Management of resistant hypertension [PDF]
In their review, Padwal and colleagues[1][1] made an interesting and important omission. Variants of Liddle syndrome (genetic mutations affecting the renal tubular epithelial sodium channel, ENac, causing salt and water retention and loss of potassium), are far commoner than most physicians ...

Colistin Resistance and Management of Drug Resistant Infections
Colistin resistance is a globalized sensible issue because it has been considered a drug of the last-line resort to treat drug-resistant bacterial infections. The product of the mobilized colistin resistance (mcr) gene and its variants are the significant causes of colistin resistance, which is emerging due to the frequent colistin use in veterinary ...

Herbicide mixtures at high doses slow the evolution of resistance in experimentally evolving populations of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]
The widespread evolution of resistance to herbicides is a pressing issue in global agriculture. Evolutionary principles and practices are key to the management of this threat to global food security.

Antibiotic resistance management
Antibiotic resistance genes arose long ago in response to naturally occurring antibiotics. Modern medicine has driven further evolution of some of these genes. Resistance can also arise spontaneously by mutation. In bacteria, genes can be inherited or they can be acquired from non-relatives on mobile genetic elements like plasmids. This horizontal gene

Managing drug resistant tuberculosis [PDF]
#### Summary points Antituberculosis drug resistance is increasing both in the United Kingdom and internationally.1 2 It has come to greater public attention with the emergence of extensively drug resistant tuberculosis (box 1) in South Africa, where an outbreak proved rapidly fatal among people with advanced HIV infection.3 In this article we review ...

Strategies for the control of Rhipicephalus microplus ticks in a world of conventional acaricide and macrocyclic lactone resistance [PDF]
Infestations with the cattle tick, Rhipicephalus microplus, constitute the most important ectoparasite problem for cattle production in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide, resulting in major economic losses. The control of R.
