HRAC GROUP 1 (LEGACY A) RESISTANT LONGFLOWERED VELDTGRASS
(Ehrharta longiflora)


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

Australia, Western Australia
INTRODUCTION LONGFLOWERED VELDTGRASS
Longflowered veldtgrass (Ehrharta longiflora) is a monocot weed in the Poaceae family.  In Western Australia this weed first evolved resistance to Group 1 (Legacy A) herbicides in 2014 and infests Bushland Reserve.   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 clethodim, 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.

ACADEMIC ASPECTS

Confirmation Tests

Greenhouse, and Laboratory trials comparing a known susceptible Longflowered veldtgrass biotype with this Longflowered veldtgrass 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 Longflowered veldtgrass 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 Longflowered veldtgrass from Western Australia please update the database.
