INTRODUCTION PLUMELESS THISTLE
Plumeless Thistle (Carduus acanthoides) is a dicot weed in the Asteraceae family.  In Argentina this weed first evolved multiple resistance (to 2 herbicide sites of action) in 2019 and infests Corn (maize), and Soybean.  Multiple resistance has evolved to herbicides in the Groups 9 (Legacy G), and Auxin Mimics HRAC Group 4 (Legacy O).  These particular biotypes are known to have resistance to 2,4-D, and glyphosate and they may be cross-resistant to other herbicides in the Groups 9 (Legacy G), and Auxin Mimics HRAC Group 4 (Legacy O).

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.
