Herbicide Resistance

Get the latest Herbicide Resistance news, research and developments covering the growing challenge of weeds surviving herbicide applications that previously provided effective control. This tag brings together developments in weed science, crop protection, resistance monitoring, integrated weed management and technologies aimed at protecting the effectiveness of herbicides.

Coverage includes resistant weed populations, target-site and non-target-site resistance, herbicide modes of action, resistance testing and field monitoring across major crops such as wheat, rice, maize, soybean, cotton and pulses. Research also examines resistance to important herbicide groups, including ALS, ACCase, EPSPS, PPO and HPPD inhibitors, along with the genetic and biochemical mechanisms that enable weeds to survive treatment.

Find news on resistant weed discoveries, new diagnostic methods, resistance-management strategies, herbicide-tolerant crops, product development, regulatory developments and field research. Coverage also tracks integrated approaches such as crop rotation, diversified modes of action, cultural practices, mechanical weed control and precision application, providing context on how farmers and the crop-protection industry are responding to changing weed populations.
