Evolution in action: plants resistant to herbicides
Modern herbicides make major contributions to global food production by easily removing
weeds and substituting for destructive soil cultivation. However, persistent herbicide …

Fitness costs associated with evolved herbicide resistance alleles in plants
Predictions based on evolutionary theory suggest that the adaptive value of evolved
herbicide resistance alleles may be compromised by the existence of fitness costs. There …

EPSPS gene amplification in glyphosate‐resistant Italian ryegrass (Lolium perenne ssp. multiflorum) from Arkansas
BACKGROUND: Resistance to glyphosate in weed species is a major challenge for the
sustainability of glyphosate use in crop and non‐crop systems. A glyphosate‐resistant Italian …

Gene amplification of 5-enol-pyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase in glyphosate-resistant Kochia scoparia
Main conclusion Field-evolved resistance to the herbicide glyphosate is due to amplification
of one of two EPSPS alleles, increasing transcription and protein with no splice variants or …

A decade of glyphosate-resistant Lolium around the world: mechanisms, genes, fitness, and agronomic management
C Preston, AM Wakelin, FC Dolman, Y Bostamam… - Weed Science, 2009 - cambridge.org
Glyphosate resistance was first discovered in populations of rigid ryegrass in Australia in

Mutations and amplification of EPSPS gene confer resistance to glyphosate in goosegrass (Eleusine indica)
Main conclusion Field-evolved resistance of goosegrass to glyphosate is due to double or
single mutation in EPSPS, or amplification of EPSPS leads to increased transcription and …
