Chahal and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Palmer amaranth, a dioecious summer annual species, is one of the most troublesome weeds in the agronomic crop production systems in the United States. In the last two decades, continuous reliance on herbicide(s) with the same mode of action as the sole weed management strategy has resulted in the evolution of herbicide-resistant (HR) weeds, including Palmer amaranth. By 2015, Palmer amaranth biotypes had been confirmed resistant to acetolactate synthase (ALS)-inhibitors, dinitroanilines, glyphosate, hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD)-inhibitors, and triazine herbicides in some parts of the United States along with multiple HR biotypes. Mechanisms of herbicide-resistance in Palmer amaranth are discussed in this chapter. Preplant herbicide options including glufosinate, 2,4-D, and dicamba provide excellent Palmer amaranth control; however, their application is limited before planting crops, which is often not possible due to unfavorable weather conditions. Agricultural biotechnology companies are developing new multiple HR crops that will allow the post-emergence application of respective herbicides for management of HR weeds, including Palmer amaranth. For the effective in-crop management of Palmer amaranth, and to reduce the potential for the evolution of other HR weeds, growers should apply herbicides with different modes of action in tank-mixture and should also incorporate cultural practices including inversion tillage and cover crops along with herbicide programs.
Book Synopsis Glyphosate-resistant Palmer Amaranth (amaranthus Palmeri) in Arkansas by : Griff Michael Griffith
Download or read book Glyphosate-resistant Palmer Amaranth (amaranthus Palmeri) in Arkansas written by Griff Michael Griffith and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 2000, there have been thirteen weed species confirmed resistant (R) to glyphosate in the United States, six of those resistant species are present in Arkansas. The goal of this research was to confirm and to determine the level of resistance in two R Palmer amaranth biotypes from Mississippi (MC-R) and Lincoln (LC-R) Counties, Arkansas, and one susceptible (S) biotype from Clarendon County, South Carolina, which had never been exposed to glyphosate. Shikimic acid concentration over time was significantly greater in the S biotype than both the MC-R and LC-R biotypes. The lethal dose required to kill 50% (LD50) of the population was 2,255 and 3,223 g ae ha -1 for the MC-R and LC-R biotypes, respectively, and it was hypothesized that the two Arkansas biotypes each had a different resistance mechanism. Results indicate metabolism of glyphosate to its major metabolite, aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA), was not responsible for resistance in any biotype. Reduced absorption in the LC-R and limited translocation from the treated leaf in the MC-R were at least partially responsible for the observed resistance to glyphosate. The LC-R biotype effectively colonized a field within two years of a single resistant female producing ̃20,000 seed. Cotton lint yield was reduced over 100 kg ha-1 by some densities of LC-R Palmer, depending on the soil and relative elevation in that region. Several resistant management options exist in cotton; however, results indicate that timely herbicide applications based off of Palmer amaranth size are required for effective season-long control and management of the soil seedbank.

This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri S. Watson) is one of the topmost troublesome, C4 dioecious weeds in the US. Biological traits such as aggressive growth habits, prolific seed production, and the ability to withstand environmental stresses hinder control of this weed. Additionally, numerous Palmer amaranth populations across the US have been found to have evolved resistance to multiple herbicides. In 2018, a population of Palmer amaranth from a conservation tillage study from Riley County, Kansas was suspected to have evolved resistance to multiple herbicides including 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and was designated as Kansas Conservation Tillage Resistant (KCTR). 2,4-D, a synthetic auxin herbicide, is widely used for controlling broadleaf weeds in cereal crops. However, over-reliance on 2,4-D to control other herbicide-resistant weeds, along with the commercialization of 2,4-D-tolerant crop technology, has resulted in increased usage of this herbicide. The objectives of this dissertation were to 1) characterize the evolution of multiple herbicide resistance including 2,4-D in KCTR Palmer amaranth; 2) investigate the physiological mechanism of 2,4-D resistance in KCTR compared to two known susceptible Palmer amaranth populations i.e., Kansas Susceptible (KSS) and Mississippi Susceptible (MSS); 3) assess the genetic basis of 2,4-D resistance in KCTR; and 4) evaluate herbicide programs that can manage glyphosate-resistant Palmer amaranth in 2,4-D tolerant soybean. Experiments were conducted under either greenhouse or controlled growth chamber conditions. Standard herbicide dose-response, physiological, biochemical (using radiolabeled herbicides), breeding, and field experiments were designed and conducted. The results of these experiments found that KCTR Palmer amaranth had evolved resistance to six herbicide modes of action, including acetolactate synthase (ALS)-, photosystem II (PS II)-, 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS)-, 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD)-, protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO)- inhibitors, and synthetic auxins (2,4-D). Sequencing and analyses of genes coding for the herbicide targets indicated absence of all known mutations that confer resistance, except for EPSPS-inhibitor, with a massive amplification of EPSPS gene (up to 88 copies). Investigation of non-target site resistance mechanism(s) in KCTR confirmed the predominance of metabolic resistance to multiple herbicides mediated by either cytochrome P450 (P450) or glutathione S-transferase enzyme activity. Whole-plant dose-response analyses confirmed a 6- to 11- fold resistance to 2,4-D in KCTR compared to two susceptible populations (KSS or MSS). [14C] 2,4-D uptake and translocation studies indicated a 10% less and 3 times slower translocation of [14C] 2,4-D in KCTR compared to susceptible populations, while there was no difference in the amount of [14C] 2,4-D absorbed. However, KCTR plants metabolized [14C] 2,4-D much faster than the susceptible KSS and MSS, suggesting that enhanced metabolism bestows resistance to this herbicide in KCTR. Further, use of P450-inhibitor (e.g., malathion) indicated that the metabolism of 2,4-D in KCTR is mediated by P450 activity. Genetic analyses of F1 and F2 progenies, derived from crossing between KCTR and KSS, revealed that 2,4-D resistance in KCTR Palmer amaranth is an incompletely dominant, nuclear trait. Segregation of F2 progenies did not follow the Mendelian single gene inheritance model (3:1), suggesting the involvement of multiple genes in mediating 2,4-D resistance in KCTR. Evaluation of herbicide programs for Palmer amaranth management in the field suggested that pre-emergence herbicides with residual activity followed by post-emergence application of either 2,4-D or glufosinate or 2,4-D and glufosinate can control glyphosate-resistant Palmer amaranth in 2,4-D-tolerant soybean. Overall, the outcome of this dissertation documents the first case of a six-way resistance in a single Palmer amaranth population and also for the first time characterizes the physiological and genetic basis of 2,4-D resistance in this weed. These findings will help in predicting and minimizing further evolution and spread of 2,4-D resistance in Palmer amaranth.

This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri) is one of the most aggressive, troublesome and damaging broadleaf weeds in many cropping systems including corn, soybean, cotton, and grain sorghum causing huge yield losses across the USA. As a result of extensive and intensive selection of pre- and -post emergence herbicides, Palmer amaranth has evolved resistance to multiple herbicide modes of action, microtubule-, 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS)-, acetolactate synthase (ALS)-, photosystem II (PS II)-, hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD)- and more recently to protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO)-inhibitors. A Palmer amaranth population from Kansas was found resistant to HPPD-, PS II-, and ALS-inhibitors. The overall objective of this research was to investigate the target-site and/or non-target-site resistance mechanisms in Palmer amaranth from KS (KSR) to mesotrione (HPPD-inhibitor), atrazine (PS II-inhibitor), and chlorsulfuron (ALS-inhibitor) relative to known susceptible Palmer amaranth from Mississippi (MSS) and KS (KSS). Whole plant dose-response assays showed high level of resistance in KSR to mesotrione, atrazine and chlorsulfuron. KSR was 10-18, 178-237 and>275 fold more resistant to mesotrione, atrazine, and chlorsulfuron, respectively, compared to MSS and KSS. Metabolism studies using [14C] labeled mesotrione and atrazine demonstrated non-target-site resistance to both herbicides, particularly, enhanced metabolism of [14C] mesotrione likely mediated by cytochrome P450 monooxygenases and rapid degradation of [14C] atrazine by glutathione S-transferases (GSTs). In addition, molecular and biochemical basis of mesotrione resistance was characterized by quantitative PCR (qPCR) and immunoblotting. These results showed 4-12 fold increased levels of the HPPD transcript and positively correlated with the increased HPPD protein. Sequencing of atrazine and chlorsulfuron target genes, psbA and ALS, respectively, showed interesting results. The most common mutation (serine264glycine) associated with atrazine resistance in weeds was not found in KSR. On the other hand, a well-known mutation (proline197serine) associated with chlorsulfuron resistance was found in 30% of KSR, suggesting ~70% of plants might have a non-target-site, possibly P450 mediated metabolism based resistance. Over all, KSR evolved both non-target-site and target-site based mechanisms to mesotrione and chlorsulfuron with only non-target-site based mechanism of resistance to atrazine leaving fewer options for weed control, especially in no-till crop production systems. Such multiple herbicide resistant Palmer amaranth populations are a serious threat to sustainable weed management because metabolism-based resistance may confer resistance to other herbicides and even those that are yet to be discovered. The findings of this research are novel and valuable to recommend appropriate weed management strategies in the region and should include diversified tactics to prevent evolution and spread of multiple herbicide resistance in Palmer amaranth.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Palmer amaranth is a principal weed problem across the United States and is resistant to several herbicide modes of action. By 2008, Palmer amaranth in Arkansas was reported to be resistant to both ALS- and EPSPS-inhibitors, but the predominant resistance mechanisms are yet to be explored. Herbicide options with different modes of action are needed to provide effective Palmer amaranth control and HPPD-inhibitors (e.g. mesotrione) are among these. The goal of this research was to elucidate the resistance profile of Palmer amaranth in Arkansas to ALS herbicides and glyphosate (EPSPS-inhibitor) as well as evaluate the differential tolerance of Palmer amaranth to mesotrione. This research aimed to (1) evaluate the response of Palmer amaranth populations to the full dose of glyphosate and mesotrione; (2) determine if tolerance to mesotrione is heritable; (3) determine the mechanism of resistance to glyphosate in selected accessions; and (4) verify the target-site as the mechanism of resistance in ALS-resistant Palmer amaranth. For objective 1, a total of 119 accessions were collected from crop fields in Arkansas between 2008 and 2014. Overall, 55% of the accessions (115) were glyphosate-resistant (GR). Mesotrione controlled 74% of the accessions (119); the remaining accessions had survivors with high injury (61%-90%). For objective 2, low level of tolerance to mesotrione (3- to 5-fold) was observed in four recalcitrant accessions. For objective 3, 20 accessions were selected. GR accessions had ED50 494 g ha-1 to 1355 g ha-1 and for susceptible accessions ED50 ranged from 28 g ha-1 to 207 g ha-1. EPSPS gene amplification was the primary mechanism of resistance. For objective 4, Palmer amaranth accessions were cross-resistant to pyrithiobac and trifloxysulfuron. Out of 20 accessions, 19 showed 21- to 56-fold resistance to trifloxysulfuron than the susceptible. Four and seven increased ALS copies were observed in a single plant from White and Mississippi counties, respectively, indicating the elevated ALS copies as potential mechanism of resistance in these accessions. Although, all accessions but susceptible had Trp574Ser mutation along with Ala122Thr, Pro197Ala and Ser653Asn present in a few plants, confirming mutations at the target-site as the main mechanism of resistance to ALS-inhibitors.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Palmer amaranth, a dioecious summer annual weed species, is the most troublesome weed in agronomic crop production systems in the United States. The confirmation of Palmer amaranth resistant to Photosystem (PS) II- and 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD)-inhibitor in south central Nebraska justify the need to study the biology and management of Palmer amaranth, and to determine the mechanism of atrazine resistance and basis of atrazine and mesotrione synergism in resistant Palmer amaranth biotype from Nebraska. The objectives of this research were to: (1) determine the mechanism of atrazine resistance and basis of atrazine and mesotrione synergism applied in tank-mixture for control of PS II- and HPPD-inhibitor-resistant Palmer amaranth biotype from Nebraska, (2) determine the effect of degree of water stress on growth, fecundity and seed germination of Palmer amaranth biotypes, (3) develop herbicide programs for management of PS II- and HPPD-inhibitor-resistant Palmer amaranth in conventional corn, and (4) develop herbicide programs for management of PS II- and HPPD-inhibitor-resistant Palmer amaranth in glufosinate-, and glyphosate-resistant corn. Increased absorption of mesotrione applied in a tank-mixture with atrazine could be the basis of atrazine and mesotrione synergism for control of susceptible as well as PS II- and HPPD-inhibitor-resistant Palmer amaranth. Atrazine resistance was conferred by enhanced atrazine metabolism, a non-target site resistance mechanism, via glutathione S-transferase (GST) conjugation. The study conducted to evaluate the effect of degree of water stress on Palmer amaranth growth and fecundity suggested that Palmer amaranth has ability to survive water stress conditions and can produce significant amount of seeds with minimum effect on germination. Palmer amaranth at 100, 75, and 50% field capacity (FC) produced similar number of leaves (588 to 670 plant--1 ), growth index (1.1 to 1.4 x 105 cm3 plant--1) and total leaf area (571 to 693 cm 2 plant--1); however, plants at 100% FC achieved maximum height of 178 cm compared to 124 and 88 cm at 75% and 50% FC, respectively. The field experiments conducted for management of Palmer amaranth in conventional, glyphosate, and glufosinate-resistant field corn demonstrated that most PRE followed by POST herbicide programs provided highest Palmer amaranth control, corn yield and net return.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many agronomic cropping systems across the United States, Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri) is the most economic and troublesome weed for producers. The introduction of glyphosate resistant (GR) crops gave producers the benefit of controlling Palmer amaranth as well as other weeds, a broad window of application, and reduced tillage practices. With the confirmation of GR Palmer amaranth, producers implemented protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO or Protox)-inhibiting herbicides to control these populations in crops such as soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] and cotton [Gossypium hirsutum (L.)]. However the continuous use of PPO herbicides has caused a shift in Palmer amaranth populations for PPO resistance. Therefore the scope of this study was to observe fomesafen response to four Palmer amaranth populations, determine the fomesafen resistance level, evaluate the effect of Palmer amaranth size on fomesafen efficacy, determine susceptibility to other foliar-applied herbicides, and evaluate the efficacy of four soil-applied PPO-inhibiting herbicides on PPO-resistant (PPO-R) and PPOsusceptible (PPO-S) Palmer amaranth populations. The PPO-S population was observed with 98% control however, fomesafen efficacy was reduced in SPA, LPA, and WPA populations with 24%, 4%, and 2% control, respectively at 14 days after treatment (DAT). The level of resistance for the PPO-R population SPA was 4-fold relative to the PPO-S population KPA. When determining the height of Palmer amaranth on fomesafen efficacy, control of SPA Sm, Md, and Lg sized plants was 62%, 49%, and 18%, respectively. Atrazine, glufosinate, and mesotrione were observed to have the greatest control (>70%) of the SPA population but resistant to glyphosate and chlorimuron. When subjected to soil-applied PPO herbicides, SPA showed reduced control with fomesafen and saflufenacil however greater control was observed with flumioxazin and sulfentrazone at 35 DAT.

This book was released on 2020 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri S. Wats.) is one of the most problematic agronomic weeds to control in fields across Arkansas. Thus far, this species has evolved resistance to several herbicides, including protoporphyrinogen IX oxidase (PPO) inhibitors. The majority of PPO-resistant Palmer amaranth populations harbor a target-site mutation (substitution or deletion of amino acids). The objective of this thesis was to identify the level of fomesafen resistance conferred by PPO2 mutations from Palmer amaranth. The experiments conducted aimed to (1) characterize the level of resistance conferred by the transgene Palmer amaranth ppo2 carrying EG210 mutation into the wild type rice (Oryza sativa cv. 'Nipponbare'); and (2) study the resistance level of Palmer amaranth plants having a single mutation (EG210 or G399A) or a combination. For objective 1, 'Nipponbare' rice was transformed with Palmer amaranth ppo2 EG210 gene via particle bombardment. The presence of the transgene in T0 plants was confirmed, and seeds (T1) were harvested. After selection with foliar treatment of fomesafen (0.78 kg ai ha-1), T1 plants carrying the mutation and showing low injury were maintained to produce T2 seeds. Soil-based assay was conducted with T2 seeds and the survivors were cultured to produce T3 seeds. Seeds from each surviving plant were kept as a separate line. The insertion of Palmer amaranth ppo2 EG210 conferred resistance to fomesafen in rice. The data suggests that only homozygous transgenic plants had full resistance to fomesafen. For objective 2, one susceptible and six resistant accessions were used to conduct dose response assay with the PPO-herbicide, fomesafen, and to test cross resistance or multiple resistance. Selected survivors from these tests were genotyped for the two expected mutations. Homozygosity of EG210 was correlated with high fomesafen resistance. At higher fomesafen rates, survivors carrying EG210 in both alleles or accumulating EG210+G399A recovered better than heterozygous EG210 plants. Populations with higher frequency of individuals with these mutation profiles were also less sensitive to the other two PPO-herbicides tested, saflufenacil and trifludimoxazin.

Download or read book Physiological Basis of Herbicide Interaction and Integrated Management of Palmer Amaranth (Amaranthus Palmeri) written by Ivan Bernardo Cuvaca and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Palmer amaranth is a major threat to many cropping systems in the USA. As a result of selection, Palmer amaranth has evolved resistance to at least six herbicide modes of action including microtubule-, 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase-, acetolactate synthase-, photosystem II-, hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase-, and protoporphyrinogen oxidase- inhibitors. Dicamba is effective for Palmer amaranth control; however, extensive use of this herbicide increases the likelihood of evolution of resistance to dicamba. The overall objective of this dissertation was to investigate the physiological basis of interaction of herbicides with different modes of action in Palmer amaranth control and evaluate use of integrated approaches to manage Palmer amaranth in field conditions. The specific objectives were to: 1) evaluate the effect of plant height on dicamba efficacy to control Palmer amaranth; 2) investigate the mechanism of resistance to glyphosate in a Palmer amaranth accession from Kansas, and evaluate efficacy of glyphosate and dicamba tank-mix to control this accession; 3) investigate the physiological basis of glyphosate and dicamba interaction in tank-mix to control Palmer amaranth; 4) determine the efficacy of reduced dicamba use on Palmer amaranth control in irrigated corn production; and 5) investigate grain sorghum and Palmer amaranth growth and reproductive attributes in response to sorghum density and nitrogen rate under irrigated conditions. All experiments were repeated and appropriate statistical tests were used for data analyses. The results indicate: a) increased absorption and translocation of dicamba contribute to increased efficacy to control Palmer amaranth at early growth stage; b) tank mixing glyphosate and dicamba had a synergistic effect on Palmer amaranth control; c) rapid absorption of dicamba and increased translocation of glyphosate resulted in increased Palmer amaranth control when applied in combination; d) there is an opportunity to maintain grain yield while effectively controlling Palmer amaranth in irrigated corn with the integration of increased corn plant population density and reduced dicamba application and e) integrating sorghum plant population and nitrogen did not suppress Palmer amaranth in irrigated sorghum, although sorghum grain yield was maintained. The outcome of this dissertation provides several strategies to improve control of Palmer amaranth.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Herbicide-resistant Palmer amaranth is the most troublesome weed in Arkansas row crops, causing producers to rely heavily on multiple mechanisms of action to reduce selection pressure for further evolution of herbicide resistance and to successfully produce a profitable crop. It is critical for the sustainability of weed management not only to adequately control this weed but also to reduce the soil seedbank using both non-chemical and chemical practices. Studies were conducted to determine the effect of soybean row spacing, seeding rate, and herbicide program on Palmer amaranth emergence, survival, and seed production in soybean, the effect of drill-seeded soybean population on Palmer amaranth emergence with and without a residual preemergence (PRE)-applied herbicide, and the impact of integrating cover crops and deep tillage with herbicide programs for glyphosate-resistant Palmer amaranth control in glyphosate- and glufosinate-resistant soybean. Herbicide application timing and choice of herbicide had more of an impact on Palmer amaranth control than either row spacing or seeding rate and greater control was observed in PRE plus postemergence (POST)-applied residual programs compared to POST-only residual programs, regardless of seeding rate and row spacing. Narrow-row soybean reached 95% canopy formation quicker than plants in wide rows, in turn resulting in greater suppression of Palmer amaranth emergence. In drill-seeded soybean, a PRE-applied residual herbicide was more beneficial in reducing Palmer amaranth emergence than increasing soybean density. Using a combination of cover crop and deep tillage along with the addition of a PRE followed by POST-applied residual herbicide program, Palmer amaranth was effectively controlled throughout the season with limited weed seed return to the soil seedbank in both glufosinate- and glyphosate-resistant soybean. Overall, herbicide programs were the strongest factor influencing Palmer amaranth control; however, the addition of a cover crop, deep tillage, and narrow row spacing play a vital role in reducing selection pressure on herbicides, thus reducing risks for new cases of herbicide resistance.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Palmer amaranth has been the most limiting weed in cotton production in the state of Arkansas for many years. Recently, resistance of Palmer amaranth to the protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO)-inhibiting site of action has been discovered at various locations across the cotton-producing region of the state. Cotton varieties have been developed with resistance to synthetic auxin (WSSA Group 4) herbicides. However, research to date has shown PPO-resistant Palmer amaranth to be more difficult to control with herbicides that target alternative sites of action. Herbicide efficacy is also known to vary with weed size, varying spray parameters, and environmental conditions. Preliminary research on control of PPO-resistant Palmer amaranth with preemergence cotton herbicides suggests that herbicide mixtures containing fluometuron are the most consistent option for longevity of control. Preliminary results of postemergence (POST) experiments assessing control of PPO-resistant Palmer amaranth in herbicide-resistant cotton were inconclusive. Limited rainfall impacted both POST and residual weed control. When attempting to salvage a cotton crop, weed size plays an extremely important factor in whether the weeds will be controlled. Two-pass salvage treatments were effective in dicamba-resistant cotton containing mixtures of glufosinate or glyphosate and dicamba and showed little variation in control of large (taller than 15 cm) Palmer amaranth. Interval between applications in a two-pass salvage treatment is influential on control of large weeds, although it does not ultimately affect seedcotton yield. Increasing carrier volume from 70 L ha-1 to 140 L ha-1 was a more important factor in maximizing efficacy of a dicamba application than switching from TTI to AirMix nozzles or increasing the dicamba rate from 560 to 1,120 g ae ha-1. Differences in control between PPO-susceptible and PPO-resistant populations were also observed, as densities of surviving PPO-resistant Palmer amaranth were much higher than PPO-susceptible Palmer amaranth following dicamba application. Nomenclature: Palmer amaranth, Amaranthus palmeri S. Wats.; cotton, Gossypium hirsutum L.; synthetic auxin; dicamba; fluometuron; 2,4-D; glufosinate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Already one of the most troublesome weeds in row crop production in the southern U.S., protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO)-resistant Palmer amaranth [Amaranthus palmeri (S.) Wats.] was first documented in Arkansas in 2015. Since this confirmation, PPO-resistant Palmer amaranth has been identified throughout the Midsouth. The following research evaluated both current and future herbicide programs for controlling PPO-resistant Palmer amaranth and quantified field-level resistance to PPO-inhibiting herbicides. On-farm research, located in fields with confirmed PPO-resistant Palmer amaranth, was conducted in 2016 and 2017. In preemergence (PRE) herbicide experiments, PPO-inhibiting herbicides still proved useful when combined with herbicides such as metribuzin and/or pyroxasulfone. Interestingly, a decline in control from S-metolachlor (

This book was released on 2018 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research was conducted from the fall of 2016 to the fall of 2018 to characterize and manage PPO- and glyphosate-resistant Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri S. Wats). Studies included a multi-county survey to determine the prevalence of PPO-resistant Palmer amaranth biotypes and the PPX2 mutations that confer PPO resistance, an in-field evaluation of control of PPO-resistant and PPO-susceptible Palmer amaranth populations with herbicide treatments applied at either sunrise or midday, and field studies that evaluated cover crop termination for control of Palmer amaranth in Roundup Ready Xtend® and Liberty Link® soybean systems [(Glycine max (L.) Merr.]. Results from this research indicate that PPO-resistant Palmer amaranth infests roughly 80% of west Tennessee fields, at least two herbicides with different, effective sites of action should be applied timely for POST herbicidal control of PPO-resistant Palmer amaranth, and that delaying cover crop termination in both Roundup Ready Xtend® and Liberty Link® soybeans can effectively reduce in-season POST applications and maximize Palmer amaranth control if the correct residual herbicide is included at planting timing.
