Weed Control and Herbicide Applications

A Novel Genomic Rearrangement in the Amaranthus palmeri Extrachromosomal Circular DNA Provides Dual Herbicide Resistance to Glyphosate and Glufosinate

The paper identifies a novel extrachromosomal circular DNA in Amaranthus palmeri that confers resistance to both glyphosate and glufosinate by co-duplicating resistance genes.

Investigating the links between trifluralin persistence in Western Australian soils and trifluralin resistance in resident annual ryegrass (Lolium rigidum) populations

The paper examines the relationship between trifluralin dissipation in Western Australian soils and resistance in annual ryegrass, finding no direct correlation but suggesting soil properties may influence resistance development.

The International Weed Genomics Consortium: Community Resources for Weed Genomics Research

The paper outlines genomic resources developed by the International Weed Genomics Consortium to improve weed control and crop breeding through insights into stress tolerance.

Assessing the probability and time of weed control failure due to herbicide resistance evolution

This study models herbicide resistance evolution in weeds, finding that small fitness costs and self-pollination reduce adaptation from standing genetic variation, and seed banks enhance adaptive potential.

Deep haplotype analyses of target-site resistance locus ACCase in blackgrass enabled by pool-based amplicon sequencing

The paper uses pool-based amplicon sequencing to analyze haplotype diversity at the ACCase resistance locus in blackgrass, revealing common soft sweeps and the persistence of TSR haplotypes.

Seed reserve mobilization and seedling morphology in a bioassay for the detection of genetically modified soybean

This study examines how glyphosate affects seed reserve mobilization and seedling morphology in genetically modified soybean cultivars.

Can double PPO mutations exist in the same allele and are such mutants functional?

The paper investigates whether double PPO mutations can co-occur in the same allele and assesses their functionality in Amaranthus species.

The blackgrass genome reveals patterns of divergent evolution of non-target site resistance to herbicides.

The paper analyzes the blackgrass genome to understand the genetic basis of non-target site herbicide resistance and its evolutionary mechanisms.

Designing safe and potent herbicides with the cropCSM online resource

The paper develops an online tool, cropCSM, using predictive models to identify safe and potent herbicides.

Virus-mediated transient expression techniques enable genetic modification of Alopecurus myosuroides

Virus-mediated transient expression techniques create loss- and gain-of-function mutations in black-grass and show causation between specific genotypes and measurable changes in herbicide resistance.

The Draft Genome of Kochia scoparia and the Mechanism of Glyphosate Resistance via Transposon-Mediated EPSPS Tandem Gene Duplication

The paper reports a draft genome of kochia and identifies a mobile genetic element involved in EPSPS gene duplication, leading to glyphosate resistance.

Fenoxaprop-p-ethyl susceptibility and mutation point detection of acetyl-coa carboxylase (ACCase) in different wild oat (Avena fatua L.) populations from China

The paper investigates fenoxaprop-p-ethyl resistance in wild oat populations by analyzing ACCase activity, gene expression, and mutation sites.
