Abstract Flixweed [ Descurainia sophia (L.) Webb ex Prantl] is a notorious broadleaf weed that widely distributed in winter wheat–growing areas of China and has evolved resistance to tribenuron-methyl mainly due target-site (TSR) mutations acetolactate synthase (ALS). In the current research, two ALS genes were identified tribenuron-methyl–susceptible (TS) or tribenuron-methyl–resistant (TR) D....

Exhaustive hydro-distillation of Descurainia sophia (L.) Webb ex Prantl (flixweed) collected from two different locations (Cangzhou city-Sample 1 and Beijing city-Sample 2) gave in both cases yellowish colored oils in 0.31 and 0.26% yield, respectively. Detailed chemical composition of the essential oils was analyzed by GC and GC/MS, and forty and thirty-eight compounds were identified. The res...

The current study focuses on the synthesis of Cerium oxide (CeO2) nanocatalyst via Tragacanth Gum (TG) using wet impregnation method and its application for sustainable biodiesel production from a novel, non-edible Descurainia sophia (L.) Webb ex Prantl seed oil. D. oil has higher content (36 wt%) free fatty acid (FFA) value (0.6 mg KOH/g). Innovative analytical methods, such as X-ray diffracti...
