Measurement of post-dispersal invertebrate seed predation of some relevant weed species in maize fields in Hungary: An ecosystem service provided in crop fields contributing to weed management
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors measured the post-dispersal invertebrate seed predation levels of the following relevant weed species in Hungarian maize fields: Ambrosia artemisiifolia, Datura stramonium, Chenopodium album, and Echinochloa crus-galli.

Investigating the evolution of herbicide resistance in UK populations of Alopecurus Myosuroides
TL;DR: This project aims to establish the frequency of ALS and ACCase resistance in UK populations of A. myosuroides and the factors that drive its evolution, and to test the hypothesis that preexisting ACCase EMR increases the rate of ALS EMR selection.

Multiple resistance in goosegrass to clethodim, haloxyfop-methyl and glyphosate
TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigate the response of goosegrass accessions from Mato Grosso, Brazil to glyphosate, clethodim, and haloxyfop-methyl.
Dissertation
Dynamiques temporelles de l'assemblage des communautés de plantes adventices : interactions entre pratiques agricoles et processus écologiques au cours des séquences culturales
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare the pools d'especes adventices aux plantes non adventices retrouves dans les milieux ouverts and non cultives for identifying the caracteristiques ecologiques propres aux adventices.

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.

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.
