INTRODUCTION ASIAN COPPERLEAF
Asian Copperleaf (Acalypha australis) is a dicot weed in the Euphorbiaceae family.  In China this weed first evolved resistance to Group 14 (Legacy E) herbicides in 2011 and infests Soybean.   Group 14 (Legacy E) herbicides are known as Inhibition of Protoporphyrinogen Oxidase (Inhibition of Protoporphyrinogen Oxidase ).  Research has shown that these particular biotypes are resistant to fomesafen and they may be cross-resistant to other Group 14 (Legacy E) 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.
