Journal ArticleDOI
Gene amplification confers glyphosate resistance in Amaranthus palmeri
Todd A. Gaines,Wenli Zhang,Dafu Wang,Bekir Bukun,Stephen T. Chisholm,Dale L. Shaner,Scott J. Nissen,William L. Patzoldt,Patrick J. Tranel,A. Stanley Culpepper,Timothy L. Grey,Theodore M. Webster,William K. Vencill,R. Douglas Sammons,Jiming Jiang,Christopher Preston,Jan E. Leach,Philip Westra +17 more
TL;DR: This work investigated recently discovered glyphosate-resistant Amaranthus palmeri populations from Georgia, in comparison with normally sensitive populations, and revealed that EPSPS genes were present on every chromosome and, therefore, gene amplification was likely not caused by unequal chromosome crossing over.

Polynucleotide molecules for gene regulation in plants
Robert D. Sammons,Sergey I. Ivashuta,Liu Hong,Dafu Wang,Paul C. C. Feng,Kouranov Andrei Y,Scott E. Andersen +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a polynucleotide molecules and methods for regulating genes in plants, e.g., by providing RNA for systemic regulation of genes, were described. But the methods were not described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glyphosate resistance in Ambrosia trifida: Part 2. Rapid response physiology and non-target-site resistance.
Marcelo L. Moretti,Marcelo L. Moretti,Christopher R Van Horn,Christopher R Van Horn,Renae R. Robertson,Kabelo Segobye,Kabelo Segobye,Stephen C. Weller,Bryan G. Young,William G. Johnson,R. Douglas Sammons,Dafu Wang,Xia Ge,André d' Avignon,Todd A. Gaines,Philip Westra,Amanda C Green,Taylor Jeffery,Mackenzie A Lespérance,François J. Tardif,Peter H. Sikkema,J. Christopher Hall,Michael D. McLean,Mark B Lawton,Burkhard Schulz,Burkhard Schulz +25 more
TL;DR: The GR RR mechanism of resistance is not associated with vacuole sequestration of glyphosate, and the observed reduced translocation is likely a consequence of rapid tissue death.
Patent
Methods and compositions for weed control
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present methods and compositions that modulate protoporphyrinogen IX oxidase in weed species, and also provide for combinations of compositions and methods that enhance weed control.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glyphosate resistance in Ambrosia trifida: Part 1. Novel rapid cell death response to glyphosate.
Christopher R Van Horn,Christopher R Van Horn,Marcelo L. Moretti,Marcelo L. Moretti,Renae R. Robertson,Kabelo Segobye,Stephen C. Weller,Bryan G. Young,William G. Johnson,Burkhard Schulz,Amanda C Green,Taylor Jeffery,Mackenzie A Lespérance,François J. Tardif,Peter H. Sikkema,J. Christopher Hall,Michael D. McLean,Mark B Lawton,R. Douglas Sammons,Dafu Wang,Philip Westra,Todd A. Gaines +21 more
TL;DR: Resistance to glyphosate in these GR RR A. trifida accessions is not conferred by a target-site resistance mechanism, and the two GR phenotypes displayed similar levels of resistance, despite having dramatically different phenotypic responses to glyphosate.
