Herbicide‐resistant weeds have been observed since the early years of synthetic herbicide
development in the 1950s and 1960s. Since that time there has been a consistent increase …

Genetically modified (GM) crops have been and continue to be a subject of controversy
despite their rapid adoption by farmers where approved. For the last two decades, an …

Weeds are among the major threats to cotton production. Overreliance on herbicides for
weed control has accelerated the evolution of herbicide-resistance in weeds and caused …

BACKGROUND Understanding and managing the evolutionary responses of pests and
pathogens to control efforts is essential to human health and survival. Herbicide‐resistant …

The efficacy of any pesticide is an exhaustible resource that can be depleted over time. For
decades, the dominant paradigm–that weed mobility is low relative to insect pests and …

Herbicide‐resistant crops have had a profound impact on weed management. Most of the
impact has been by glyphosate‐resistant maize, cotton, soybean and canola. Significant …

Abstract Amaranthus palmeri S. Watson (Palmer amaranth) is an invasive agricultural weed
that has quickly risen from a state of relative obscurity to now being globally regarded as one …

Widespread adoption of glyphosate-resistant crops and concomitant reliance on glyphosate
for weed control set an unprecedented stage for the evolution of herbicide-resistant weeds …

One of the increasingly widespread mechanisms of resistance to the herbicide glyphosate is
copy number variation (CNV) of the 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) …

The challenge of maintaining sufficient food, feed, fiber, and forests, for a projected end of
century population of between 9–10 billion in the context of a climate averaging 2–4° C …
