Molecular genetics of herbicide resistance in Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri): metabolic tembotrione resistance and geographic origin of glyphosate resistance
TL;DR: It is suggested that the water needs of this region have changed in recent years from being primarily for agricultural purposes to domestic and industrial uses now, and that the needs of the tourism industry have changed too.

Investigating the Mechanism of Metabolic Resistance to Tribenuron-Methyl in Capsella bursa-pastoris (L.) Medik. by Full-Length Transcriptome Assembly Combined with RNA-Seq
TL;DR: In this article, a pre-treatment with the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (P450) inhibitor malathion clearly reduced the tribenuron-methyl resistance in the resistant (R) population, and the glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity was significantly higher than that of susceptible (S) plants.

Drought exposure leads to rapid acquisition and inheritance of herbicide resistance in the weed Alopecurus myosuroides
TL;DR: In this paper , exposure to stress in a parental generation promoted the evolution of resistance in the offspring, and such evolution mediated through non-genetic mechanisms was found to be functionally linked with herbicide resistance.

Valor adaptativo e habilidade competitiva de azevém resistente e suscetível ao iodosulfuron em competição com o trigo
Franciele Mariani,Leandro Vargas,Dirceu Agostinetto,Marcos André Nohatto,Ana Claudia Langaro,Thiago Vieira Duarte +5 more
TL;DR: Os resultados dos estudos comparativos de crescimento mostraram similaridade entre os biotipos de azevem resistente e suscetivel ao iodosulfuron, o que nao caracterizou efeito pleiotropico decorrente da resistencia.

Growth, fecundity, and competition between aryloxyphenoxypropionate-resistant and -susceptible Asia Minor bluegrass (Polypogon fugax)
TL;DR: The results indicate that there is no apparent fitness penalty for the APP-R P. fugax, which suggests that growers will need to begin weed control earlier and possibly include vegetative crops with an even shorter growth cycle in their rotations.

Crop losses to pests
TL;DR: Despite a clear increase in pesticide use, crop losses have not significantly decreased during the last 40 years, however, pesticide use has enabled farmers to modify production systems and to increase crop productivity without sustaining the higher losses likely to occur from an increased susceptibility to the damaging effect of pests.

Environmental and Economic Costs of Nonindigenous Species in the United States
TL;DR: Aproximately 50,000 nonindigenous (non-native) species are estimated to have been introduced to the United States, many of which are beneficial but have caused major economic losses in agriculture, forestry, and several other segments of the US economy, in addition to harming the environment.

Evolution in Action: Plants Resistant to Herbicides
Stephen B. Powles,Qin Yu +1 more
TL;DR: Understanding resistance and building sustainable solutions to herbicide resistance evolution are necessary and worthy challenges to herbicides sustainability in world agriculture.
Journal ArticleDOI
The genetics of human adaptation: hard sweeps, soft sweeps, and polygenic adaptation.
TL;DR: This work argues for alternatives to the hard sweep model: in particular, polygenic adaptation could allow rapid adaptation while not producing classical signatures of selective sweeps, and discusses some of the likely opportunities for progress in the field.

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.
