INTRODUCTION		TOOTHED DOCK
Toothed Dock (Rumex dentatus) is a dicot weed in the Polygonaceae family. In India this weed first evolved resistance to Group 2 (Legacy B) herbicides in 2014 and infests Wheat. Group 2 (Legacy B) herbicides are known as Inhibition of Acetolactate Synthase (Inhibition of Acetolactate Synthase ). Research has shown that these particular biotypes are resistant to florasulam, iodosulfuron-methyl-Na, mesosulfuron-methyl, and pyroxsulam and they may be cross-resistant to other Group 2 (Legacy B) herbicides. The 'Group' letters/numbers that you see throughout this web site refer to the classification of herbicides by their site of action.

NOTES ABOUT THIS BIOTYPE

GENERAL

Rajender Chhokar

Metsulfuron resistance in Rumex dentatus

Rumex dentatus (Toothed dock) is a major broadleaf weed of Rabi season and is a serious problem of irrigated wheat particularly of rice-wheat system. This weed is highly competitive and besides reducing the yield also interferes with combine harvesting. Rumex dentatus is highly sensitive to metsulfuron and this herbicide is providing effective control of this weed for the last 15 years in wheat in India. However, during 2013 in pot and field studies it was observed that one of the population of Rumex dentatus has evolved metsulfuron resistance (ALS inhibition). It has shown the cross-resistance to mesosulfuron + Iodosulfuron, pyroxsulam, halauxifen + florasulam. For its control, carfentrazone, 2,4-D amine, pendimethalin and isoproturon were found effective.

Montazeri, M. ; Zand, E. ; Poor-Azar, R. ; Barjasteh, A. R. ; Nooroz-Zadeh, S. ; Vaici, M.. 2005. An evaluation of the efficacy of four wheat selective herbicides in the control of annual dicotyledonous weeds. Iranian Journal of Weed Science 1 : 155 - 162.

The efficacy of 2,4-D, 2,4-D + MCPA, bromoxynil and tribenuron-methyl [tribenuron] (at 1.08, 0.56 + 0.47, 0.56 and 15.0 g/ha, respectively) for the control of 17 annual broadleaf weed species was evaluated during 2002 and 2003 in 5 Iranian provinces: Tehran, Khuzestan, Semnan, Kermanshah and Khorasan. The herbicides were applied when the target weeds were at the 2- to 4-leaf stage. Most of the weed species were significantly controlled by at least one of the herbicides. However, Rumex crispus, Rumex dentatus, Fumaria officinalis and Polygonum aviculare were relatively tolerant of all the herbicides. Among the weed species, Sinapis arvensis, Rapistrum rugosum and Beta maritima were controlled completely by all the herbicides. For the control of Centaurea depressa, Chenopodium album, Cephalaria syriaca, Carthamus oxyacantha and Sisymbrium officinale, 2,4-D and 2,4-D + MCPA were significantly more effective than tribenuron-methyl or bromoxynil. For the control of Goldbachia laevigata, bromoxynil was more effective than the other herbicides. Stellaria media was more sensitive to tribenuron-methyl than to the other herbicides..
