in order to study the effect of soil nitrogen content and water hardness on glyphosate efficacy on common lambsquarter (chenopodium album l.) and redroot pigweed (amaranthus retroflexus l.) control, an experiment was carried out as a completely randomized design in a factorial arrangement with three replications. experimental treatments were included soil nitrogen content (18, 50, 90, 200 and 3...

The herbicide glyphosate, N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine, induced phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activity in the roots of dark-grown maize seedlings. This enzyme induction was shown to precede glyphosate-reduced fresh weight gain in the roots by 24--48 h. Feeding aromatic amino acids with glyphosate further inhibited growth while slightly lowering glyphosate-enhanced PAL activity. Soluble protei...

The potential for improvedmanagement of Cercospora leaf spot (CLS), caused by Cercospora beticola, using the herbicide glyphosate in glyphosate-resistant sugar beet varieties was investigated. Controlled field experiments were conducted in 2008 and 2009 to determine if glyphosate and glyphosateefungicide combinations improved the management of CLS in four commercial varieties of glyphosate-resi...

The occurrence of multiple herbicide resistant weeds has increased considerably in glyphosate-resistant soybean fields Brazil; however, the mechanisms governing this resistance have not been studied. In its study, target-site and nontarget-site were characterized an Eleusine indica population (R-15) with to acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) inhibitors, glyphosate, imazamox, paraquat. Absorption t...

Abstract The herbicides glyphosate and pyrithiobac inhibit the enzyme 5‐enolpyruvylshikimate‐3‐phosphate synthase (EPSPS) in aromatic amino acid biosynthetic pathway acetolactate (ALS) branched‐chain pathway, respectively. Here we characterise protease activity profiles of a sensitive (S), glyphosate‐resistant (GR) multiple‐resistant (MR) population Amaranthus palmeri response to pyrithiobac. A...

Abstract: BRS 500 B2RF is a high-yielding cotton cultivar with transgenic resistance to lepidopteran pests and tolerance the herbicide glyphosate. Additionally, has Ramularia leaf spot partial root-knot nematode. It represents an important contribution sustainable production in Brazil.

Nontarget injury from glyphosate drift is a concern among growers using non-glyphosate-resistant (non-GR) cultivars. The effects of glyphosate drift on nitrate assimilation and nitrogen fixation potential, nodule mass, and yield of non-GR soybean were assessed in a field trial at Stoneville, MS. A non-GR soybean cultivar 'Delta Pine 4748S' was treated with glyphosate at 12.5% of use rate of 0.8...

Weeds and their devastating effects have been a great threat since the start of agriculture. They compete with crop plants in the field and negatively influence the crop yield quality and quantity along with survival of the plants. Glyphosate is an important broad-spectrum systemic herbicide which has been widely used to combat various weed problems since last two decades. It is very effective ...

Horseweed (Conyza canadensis) is a problem weed in crop production because of its evolved resistance to glyphosate and other herbicides. Although horseweed is mainly self-pollinating, glyphosate-resistant (GR) horseweed can pollinate glyphosate-susceptible (GS) horseweed. To the best of our knowledge, however, there are no available data on horseweed pollen production, dispersion, and depositio...

The United States is the largest producer of maize in the world. Maize-soybean is the most prominent crop rotation in the Midwestern United States. Glyphosate-resistant volunteer maize is a problem weed not only in soybean, but also in continuous maize or sugarbeet rotations. Storm damage, harvesting problems, poor stalk quality, and insect damage, among other factors, can lead to kernel and ea...
