HRAC GROUP 27 (LEGACY F2) RESISTANT CHINESE SPRANGLETOP
(Leptochloa chinensis)


Inhibition of Hydroxyphenyl Pyruvate Dioxygenase HRAC Group 27 (Legacy F2)

China, Hunan
INTRODUCTION CHINESE SPRANGLETOP
Chinese Sprangletop (Leptochloa chinensis) is a monocot weed in the Poaceae family.  In China this weed first evolved resistance to Group 27 (Legacy F2) herbicides in 2023 and infests Rice.   Group 27 (Legacy F2) herbicides are known as Inhibition of Hydroxyphenyl Pyruvate Dioxygenase (Inhibition of Hydroxyphenyl Pyruvate Dioxygenase ).  Research has shown that these particular biotypes are resistant to tripyrasulfone and they may be cross-resistant to other Group 27 (Legacy F2) herbicides.

Abstract : The emergence of 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) herbicides as efficacious target-site herbicides has been noteworthy. In recent years, only four species of broadleaf weeds have developed resistance due to the long-term widespread use of HPPD herbicides. This study represents the first reported instance of a grass weed exhibiting resistance to HPPD inhibitors. We identified a new HPPD-resistant Chinese sprangletop [Leptochloa chinensis (L.) Nees] population (R population). At the recommended dose of tripyrasulfone, the inhibition rate of the R population was only half that of the sensitive population (S). The mechanism underlying resistance does not involve target-site resistance triggered by amino acid mutations or depend on disparities within the HPPD INHIBITOR SENSITIVE 1 (HIS1) gene. The impetus for resistance appears to be interlinked with the metabolic activities of cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (P450) and glutathione S-transferase (GST) family genes. Following RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) validation, the study suggests that five P450 genes, CYP71C1CYP74A2CYP72A1CYP84A1, and CYP714C2, alongside a single GST gene GSTF1, may be implicated in the process of metabolic detoxification.

ACADEMIC ASPECTS

Confirmation Tests

Greenhouse, and Laboratory trials comparing a known susceptible Chinese Sprangletop biotype with this Chinese Sprangletop biotype have been used to confirm resistance. For further information on the tests conducted please contact the local weed scientists that provided this information.
 
Genetics

Genetic studies on HRAC Group 27 resistant Chinese Sprangletop have not been reported to the site.  There may be a note below or an article discussing the genetics of this biotype in the Fact Sheets and Other Literature
 
Mechanism of Resistance

Studies on the mechanism of resistance of Group 27 (Legacy F2) resistant Chinese Sprangletop from China indicate that resistance is due to an altered target site.  There may be a note below or an article discussing the mechanism of resistance in the Fact Sheets and Other Literature
 
Relative Fitness

There is no record of differences in fitness or competitiveness of these resistant biotypes when compared to that of normal susceptible biotypes.  If you have any information pertaining to the fitness of Group 27 (Legacy F2) resistant Chinese Sprangletop from China please update the database.
