HRAC GROUP 1 (LEGACY A) RESISTANT SHORTSPIKE CANARYGRASS

Inhibition of Acetyl CoA Carboxylase HRAC Group 1 (Legacy A)

Italy
INTRODUCTION SHORTSPIKE CANARYGRASS
Shortspike Canarygrass (Phalaris brachystachys) is a monocot weed in the Poaceae family.  In Italy this weed first evolved resistance to Group 1 (Legacy A) herbicides in 2001 and infests Durum wheat, and Sugar beets.   Group 1 (Legacy A) herbicides are known as Inhibition of Acetyl CoA Carboxylase (Inhibition of Acetyl CoA Carboxylase ).  Research has shown that these particular biotypes are resistant to clodinafop-propargyl, diclofop-methyl, pinoxaden, and sethoxydim and they may be cross-resistant to other Group 1 (Legacy A) 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.

CROSS RESISTANCE

Alberto Collavo
The population collected in sugarbeet is cross-resistant to clodinafop, pinoxaden and sethoxydim while the ones collected in durum wheat are cross-resistant to tralkoxydim and diclofop. All population are controlled by ALS inhibitors.
