HRAC GROUP 1 (LEGACY A) RESISTANT SUDANGRASS
(Sorghum bicolor ssp. drummondii (=Sorghum sudanese))


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

Bolivia, Santa Cruz
INTRODUCTION SUDANGRASS
Sudangrass (Sorghum bicolor ssp. drummondii (=Sorghum sudanese)) is a monocot weed in the Poaceae family.  In Bolivia this weed first evolved resistance to Group 1 (Legacy A) herbicides in 1999 and infests Soybean.   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 fenoxaprop-ethyl, fluazifop-butyl, haloxyfop-methyl, and quizalofop-ethyl 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.

GENERAL

Pablo Franco
This annual grass has relative tolerance to pendimethalin, clomazone, and acetochlor. With Eriochloa punctata it is the most predominant grass weed in soyabean, maize, and sugar cane. It has a wider range of adaptation compared to Eriochloa punctata.

ACADEMIC ASPECTS

Confirmation Tests

Greenhouse trials comparing a known susceptible Sudangrass biotype with this Sudangrass 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 HRAC Group 1 resistant Sudangrass 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

There is no record of differences in fitness or competitiveness of these resistant biotypes when compared to that of normal susceptible biotypes.  If you have any information pertaining to the fitness of Group 1 (Legacy A) resistant Sudangrass from Bolivia please update the database.
