WEBINAR RECORDING: 5-Batch Preliminary Analysis: Identifying Opportunities and Overcoming Challenges
Presented: April 10, 2024 Presenters: Charles Kofi Adarkwa Nyamekye, Study Director, Smithers Moderator: Solito Sumulong,…
Weeds can evolve resistance to herbicides through enzymatic mechanisms to metabolize and detoxify herbicide molecules. Recent advances have revealed specific genes controlling metabolic resistance such as cytochrome P450s, glutathione-S-transferase, and others, primarily in grasses but also in broadleaf weeds. Metabolic resistance can result in unpredictable cross-resistance patterns that further complicate management recommendations. This webinar will summarize major recent findings and outline current knowledge gaps for metabolic herbicide resistance.
