Les ambroisies annuelles (Ambrosia artemisiifolia et Ambrosia trifida) : réponse adaptative au désherbage chimique et connectivité des populations da…
2018
The primary aim of this work was to study the risk of resistance evolution to acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibiting herbicides in mugwort (Ambrosia artemisiifolia L.) through four points: (i) selection pressure (study of the efficacy of a range of ALS-inhibiting herbicides), (ii) the adaptive response capacity of the weed (determination of the variation in sensitivity to ALS inhibitors between plants and implementation of a recurrent selection programme), (iii) a field study (search for resistance to ALS inhibitors in the field in France), (iv) the study of resistance mechanisms (target-linked - TLR - and non-target-linked - NLR - by a transcriptomics approach). The second objective was to…
Status of herbicide-resistant Lolium populations in wheat fields in Tunisia
2013
The evolution of herbicide resistance in weeds is a worldwide phenomenon in modern cropping systems. The presence of resistant populations can severely hamper herbicide-based weed control, thus leading to the need for a more accurate use of these products. In Tunisia, the first report of evolved herbicide resistance concerned Lolium rigidum populations collected in wheat fields in northern Tunisia in 1996 and found to be resistant to acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase-inhibiting (ACCase) herbicides. The objective of this study is to detect and characterise herbicide resistance in ryegrass (Lolium spp). The sensitivity of nine ryegrass populations, collected in wheat fields in northern Tunisia, w…
Occurrence of non-target-site-based resistance to ALS inhibitors in the broadleaf weed Papaver rhoeas (corn poppy).
2013
The vast majority of reported cases of resistance to ALS inhibitors in broadleaves is due to the selection of mutant, herbicide-resistant ALS alleles carrying a mutation at one of a few ALS codons that can be easily identified (ALS-based resistance). Non-ALS-based resistance (non-target-site resistance, NTSR), considered to be endowed by differences in the expression of many genes, has essentially been reported in grasses and hardly ever in broadleaves. We investigated NTSR to ALS inhibitors in poppy by pairing plants resistant to ALS inhibitors with susceptible plants and subsequently analysing the segregation of resistance in F1 families. Poppy plants resistant to ALS inhibitors were geno…
