Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Multiple herbicide-resistant (MHR) Palmer amaranth poses a serious management concern for growers across the United States. Since 2014, several Palmer amaranth populations with suspected resistance to most commonly used herbicides were collected in random field surveys across Kansas. This study aimed to characterize the resistance levels to glyphosate (EPSPS inhibitor), mesotrione (HPPD inhibitor), chlorsulfuron (ALS inhibitor), and atrazine (PS II inhibitor) in three suspected MHR Palmer amaranth populations (KW2, PR8, and BT12) compared to a known herbicide-susceptible (SUS) population. Dose-response studies revealed that PR8 and BT12 populations had 7- to 14-fold level resistance to glyphosate, and up to 12-fold level …
