INTRODUCTION EASTERN GROUNDSEL
Eastern Groundsel (Senecio vernalis) is a dicot weed in the Asteraceae family.  In Israel this weed first evolved multiple resistance (to 5 herbicide sites of action) in 2014 and infests Carrots, and Wheat.  Multiple resistance has evolved to herbicides in the Groups B/2, C1/5, C2/7, E/14, and F1/12.  These particular biotypes are known to have resistance to carfentrazone-ethyl, diflufenican, diuron, imazamox, and metribuzin and they may be cross-resistant to other herbicides in the Groups B/2, C1/5, C2/7, E/14, and F1/12.

The 'Group' letters/numbers that you see throughout this web site refer to the classification of herbicides by their site of action. To see a full list of herbicides and HRAC herbicide classifications click here.

ACADEMIC ASPECTS

Confirmation Tests

Greenhouse, and Laboratory trials comparing a known susceptible Eastern Groundsel biotype with this Eastern Groundsel 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 Group B, C1, C2, E, F1/2, 5, 7, 14, 12 resistant Eastern Groundsel 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

The mechanism of resistance for this biotype is either unknown or has not been entered in the database.  If you know anything about the mechanism of resistance for this biotype then please update the database.
 
Relative Fitness

Triazine resistant weeds often exhibit a lower relative fitness when compared to susceptible biotypes.  The most common mutation conferring triazine resistance (Ser 264 to Gly mutation of the psbA gene) also causes a reduction in CO2 fixation, quantum yield, and seed and biomass production.  There is no record in this database referring specifically to fitness studies on multiple resistant Eastern Groundsel from Israel.
