A COMBINATION OF TEBUTHIURON AND DlUiRON FOR WEED CONTROL IN SOUTH AFRICAN SUGARCANE
A combination of tebuthiuron (25%) and diuron (50%) called Bimate* was evaluated for pre-emergence and postemergence weed control. An early post-emergence application was the best treatment. No phytotoxicity to either plant or ratoon cane was recorded when the recommended rates of 4,O kg of Bimate per ha were used on soil containing 8 to 30% clay, and 5,O kg of Bimate per ha on soil containing ...
متن کاملNew Developments in the Production of Herbicide-resistant Sugarcane
In a previously reported model study, sugarcane was genetically engineered with the pat gene conferring resistance to the herbicide Buster®. The sugarcane cultivar used in that work was NCo310, which is no longer grown commercially but responds well to tissue culture and transformation. The field performance of the herbicide resistant sugarcane was assessed and stable transgene expression obser...
متن کاملGlyphosate and herbicide resistant plants
There is a common understanding that commercially traded formulations of glyphosate, such as Roundup, can be more toxic than glyphosate alone. Therefore, the EU has already taken measures to remove problematic additives known as POE tallowamine from the market. However, imports of genetically engineered plants resistant to glyphosate are exposed to high dosages of the herbicide in countries whe...
متن کاملImmunomodulation confers herbicide resistance in plants.
In order to create a novel mechanism for herbicide resistance in plants, we expressed a single-chain antibody fragment (scFv) in tobacco with specific affinity to the auxinic herbicide picloram. Transgenic tobacco plants and seedlings expressing this scFv against picloram were protected from its effect in a dose-dependent manner. This is the first successful use of an antibody to confer in vivo...
متن کاملDo Environmental Effects of Herbicide-Resistant GM Plants Differ from Effects of Other Herbicide Resistant Plants?
Genetic modification of crop plants has promoted concerns about potential environmental effects of this new technology. In this essay, I will discuss the environmental effects of genetic modification of crop plants using herbicide resistance as an example. Considering herbicide resistance as an old agricultural trait, it is difficult to find any reason to assess the environmental risks of genet...
