Weed resistance risk management in glyphosate-resistant cotton
The introduction of glyphosate resistance into Australian cotton systems will have an effect on conventional weed management practices, the weed species present and the risk of glyphosate resistance evolving in weed species. Therefore, it is important that the effects of these management practices, …

Value of Cover Crops in Suppressing Weeds and Protecting Cotton Yields and Likelihood of Residual Herbicide Carryover to Cover Crops
<p>Weed-resistance management has become a topic of concern for modern agriculture. Cost related to herbicide usage has increased greatly due to evolution and proliferation of resistant weeds. Therefore, experiments were conducted to investigate the potential for using cover crops to suppress …

Epigenetic Responses of Arabidopsis to Abiotic Stress
Weed resistance to control measures, particularly herbicides, is a growing problem in agriculture. In the case of herbicides, resistance is sometimes connected to genetic changes that directly affect the target site of the herbicide. Other cases are less straightforward where resistance arises …

Essays on innovation in the U.S. corn and soybean seeds
… by the extension program as well as the SCN resistance trait. In addition, through a counterfactual analysis where the studied extension program and SCN resistance trait are absent, this study estimates the total value of SCN-resistant varieties and associated ISU-SCN information at 326 …

Control, Assessment and Glyphosate Resistance of Palmer Amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri S. Wats) in Virginia
… on glyphosate based systems resulted in weeds that can no longer be controlled with glyphosate. Palmer amaranth resistance to glyphosate has been confirmed in ten US states including Virginia's bordering neighbor North Carolina. The objectives of this study were to i) determine the spread …

Mechanism of Resistance in Common Ragweed to PPO-inhibiting Herbicides
… attack from the evolution of herbicide-resistant weeds. Almost all commercially available herbicidal modes of action have documented cases of herbicide-resistant weeds. One particular herbicidal class is known as the protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO, Protox) inhibiting herbicides. Only four weed …
