HRAC GROUP 2 (LEGACY B) RESISTANT WILD CHAMOMILE
(Matricaria recutita (= M. chamomilla))

Inhibition of Acetolactate Synthase HRAC Group 2 (Legacy B)

Norway, Vestfold

INTRODUCTION		WILD CHAMOMILE
Wild Chamomile (Matricaria recutita (= M. chamomilla)) is a dicot weed in the Asteraceae family. In Norway this weed first evolved resistance to Group 2 (Legacy B) herbicides in 2012 and infests Wheat, and Winter barley. 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 metsulfuron-methyl, and tribenuron-methyl 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.
