HRAC GROUP 9 (LEGACY G) RESISTANT TALL WINDMILL GRASS
(Chloris elata)


Inhibition of Enolpyruvyl Shikimate Phosphate Synthase HRAC Group 9 (Legacy G)

Brazil
INTRODUCTION TALL WINDMILL GRASS
Tall Windmill Grass (Chloris elata) is a monocot weed in the Poaceae family.  In Brazil this weed first evolved resistance to Group 9 (Legacy G) herbicides in 2014 and infests Soybean.   Group 9 (Legacy G) herbicides are known as Inhibition of Enolpyruvyl Shikimate Phosphate Synthase (Inhibition of EPSP synthase).  Research has shown that these particular biotypes are resistant to glyphosate and they may be cross-resistant to other Group 9 (Legacy G) herbicides.

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.
