Amplification of the EPSPS gene has been previously identified as the glyphosate resistance mechanism in many populations of Amaranthus palmeri, a major weed pest in U.S. agriculture. Here, we evaluate the effects of EPSPS ...

We reviewed the literature to understand the effects of glyphosate resistance on plant fitness at the molecular, biochemical and physiological levels. A number of correlations between enzyme characteristics and glyphosate ...

Herbicide resistance within key driver weeds, such as common waterhemp [Amaranthus tuberculatus (Moq.) Sauer var. rudis (Sauer) Costea and Tardif ], constrains available management options for crop production. Routine ...

Paspalum paniculatum is a perennial herbaceous grass species originating from South America. It is of economic importance as a weed in plantation crops where glyphosate is widely used in its control. Glyphosate is a broad ...

A growing body of research suggests that dysbiosis of the gut microbiota induced by environmental pollutants, such as pesticides, could have a role in the development of metabolic disorders. We have examined the long-term ...

Ryegrass (Lolium spp.) is a weed widely spread in farming areas around the world. Due to its rusticity and high growth rate, this species is widely cultivated, both for soil cover and forage production. The intensive use ...
