Simulationsmodell zur langfristigen Kontrolle von Avena fatua L. in Winterweizen

TL;DR: In this paper, a modular decision support system (DSS) was developed for long-term A. fatua L. control in winter wheat. And the results show the great potential of reducing herbicide input and point out the importance of including population dynamics models into DSS

Echinochloa crusgalli var. Mitis metabolism as resistance mechanism to imazapyr and imazapic

TL;DR: Los resultados indican that el mecanismo de resistencia al herbicida imazapyr +Imazapic en los biotipos Pelotas y Arroio Grande esta relacionado with el aumento del metabolismo del herbicIDA, and no se puede decir that este mecanism este involucrado in la resistencia del biotIPo ECH38.

Reduced coenzyme Q synthesis confers non-target site resistance to the herbicide thaxtomin A

TL;DR: A forward genetic approach in the model species Marchantia polymorpha is used to discover novel mechanisms of herbicide resistance caused by loss-of-function mutations in the MpRTN4IP1L gene, and it is proposed that other mutations which increase ROS levels or decrease thaxtomin A metabolism could confer herbicide resistant weeds in the field.

Ocena plonowania i zachwaszczenia mieszanek grochu siewnego z pszenżytem jarym uprawianych na zieloną masę w rolnictwie zrównoważonym

TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated the effect of the share of components in the mixture and the harvest date on the weed infestation and yield of mixtures of field pea with spring triticale.

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

TL;DR: Understanding resistance and building sustainable solutions to herbicide resistance evolution are necessary and worthy challenges to herbicides sustainability in world agriculture.

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.

Gene amplification confers glyphosate resistance in Amaranthus palmeri

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.
