  1. Herbicide-Resistant Weeds November 2013
  2. Herbicide Resistance Definition inherited ability of a weed or crop biotype to survive a herbicide application to which the original population was susceptible. Biotype = a group of plants within a species that has biological traits that are not common to the population as a whole.
  3. Herbicide Resistance Types 3 Single Herbicide Resistance Resistant to only one herbicide Cross Herbicide Resistance Resistant to two or more herbicide families with same mechanism of action Single resistance mechanism Multiple Herbicide Resistance Resistant to two or more herbicides with different mechanisms of action May be the result of two or more different resistance mechanisms
  4. Herbicide Resistance Around the World 404 Unigue Cases (species X site of action) 220 species 130 dicots 90 monocots Top 3 Modes of Action ALS Inhibitors PS II Inhibitors ACCase Inhibitors Source: Heap, I.

  10. Herbicide Resistant Weeds Pollen Drift Off-site movement (wind, gravity, insects) of resistance trait through pollen Pollen from resistant male fertilizes susceptible female to produce resistant progeny UGA researchers have documented GR-trait movement of at least 900’ (Palmer amaranth).

  12. Why Are Plants Resistant to Herbicides? Mechanisms altered site of action most common enhanced metabolism sequestration Gene amplification

  16. Herbicide Resistant Weeds By Mode of Action
  17. What does ALS mean? Acetolactate synthase (ALS) Acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS) chloroplast enzyme needed to form certain amino acids Valine, leucine, isoleucine Herbicide families Imidazolinone, sulfonanalide, benzoates, sulfonylurea
  18. ALS-Resistance Around the World 133 species have developed ALS-resistance world-wide Insensitive ALS enzyme 26 species in U.S. Why? very popular low use rates environment friendly single sites of action major MOA development in late 1980’s early 1990’s

  24. 2007, 2008, 2010 Macon County Triazine-Resistance Survey ALS + GLY + ATZ
  25. Herbicide Resistance Should Only Be Suspected When .……... other causes of herbicide failure have been ruled out. the same herbicide or herbicides with the same mode of action have been used year after year. one weed that is normally controlled is not controlled while other weeds are. healthy weeds are mixed with controlled weeds (same species) a patch of uncontrolled weed is spreading.
  26. MSMA Resistant Cocklebur in NC (Dr. Alan York – NCSU))
  27. Causes of Herbicide Failures weed size** moisture temperature humidity rate application method calibration others All possible reasons for poor performance should be investigated before considering the possibility of resistance!!!
  28. Herbicide Resistant Weeds Strategies for Control/Prevention proactive vs. reactive utilize other weed control tactics tillage, cultivation, row patterns, cover crops, etc. rotate herbicides with different MOA rotate crops scout fields prevent seed production weed seed bank management clean tillage and harvesting equipment

  31. Weed Seed Bank Management How many are produced? How many will survive? seed predation seed decay seed dormancy seed size depth of emergence How will changes in practices influence weed seed bank? Palmer Amaranth Seed
  32. The influence of burial duration and depth on the viability of Palmer amaranth seeds in Georgia (2007-2011). Sosnoskie, L.M., T.M. Webster and A.S. Culpepper. 2013. Glyphosate resistance does not affect Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri) seedbank longevity. Weed Science. 61:283-288.
  33. How long does resistance last in absence of further selection pressure? Andrews and Morrison (1997) - Canada DNA resistant green foxtail % of resistant seeds after 7 years initial resistance was at least 90% Source: Weed Technology (1997): 11:369-372.
  34. Does the use of reduced rates influence the rate of herbicide resistance development ? yes!! a bad idea!!!! Herbicides should be used at recommended rates that ensure high weed mortality to minimize the likelihood of minor herbicide resistance traits leading to rapid herbicide resistance evolution Manalil et al., 2011. Weed Science 59:210-217
  35. Why Palmer Amaranth? 38 species of Amaranthus in U.S. 27 species found in SE grows faster than other pigweeds (1-2” per day!!) more competitive than other pigweeds prolific seed producer Up to 1,000,000 seeds/plant 9-12 WAE 2 generations/year herbicide tolerance reduced tillage
