TL;DR

VCR and TMS have evolved resistance to lactofen and fomesafen, and VRC also exhibited reduced sensitivity to cloransulam-methyl and glyphosate, highlighting the need for integrated, diversified management to further reduce herbicide selection pressure.

Characterization of a novel R98Q mutation that confers resistance to sulfentrazone in common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia) populations from Michigan

BACKGROUND In 2023, soybean growers in Eaton County, Michigan, reported repeated failures to control common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia L.) with (PPO)-inhibiting herbicides, sulfentrazone and fomesafen, in non-genetically modified soybeans. This study aimed to investigate resistance levels and mechanisms of resist...

Distribution of target-site resistance mechanisms to nicosulfuron and glyphosate in Amaranthus palmeri accessions from two different regions of Türkiye

Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri S. Watson) is a highly competitive weed that has evolved resistance to several modes of action and has recently become a significant problem in Türkiye. This study was designed to determine the distribution of common target-site resistance (TSR) mechanisms to the acetolactate synthas...

Novel amino acid substitutions in Protoporphyrinogen oxidase 1 endow resistance to PPO-inhibiting herbicides in Bassia scoparia

PPO-inhibiting herbicides are widely used to manage weeds in different cropping systems, yet resistance evolution threatens their long-term efficacy. Here, we investigated the molecular basis of resistance to PPO-inhibiting herbicides in Bassia scoparia biotypes collected from four locations in North Dakota, USA. Green...

Biochemical and molecular basis of pyridaben resistance in Tetranychus urticae (Acari: Tetranychidae) populations from apple orchards

In this study, pyridaben LC values, resistance ratios, detoxification enzyme activities, synergism tests, and the H92R target-site mutation were investigated in T. urticae populations collected from apple orchards, providing important insights into the biochemical and molecular mechanisms underlying pyridaben resistanc...

Detoxification enzyme inhibitor mediated synergism of insecticide toxicity in Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

The potential of synergists to improve insecticide efficacy and strengthen insecticide resistance management (IRM) strategies is highlighted and Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases and carboxyl esterases appear more influential in BBPL while glutathione S-transferases are more significant in BPPL.

The I4746K mutation in the ryanodine receptor is associated with high-level resistance to diamide insecticides in Phthorimaea absoluta.

BACKGROUND The South American tomato pinworm, Phthorimaea absoluta, has developed resistance to diamide insecticides mainly through target-site mutations in the ryanodine receptor (RyR), including I4746M, G4903E, and G4903V. Recently, a novel mutation, I4746K, has been identified in field populations of P. absoluta, bu...
