Abstract excerpt
We have investigated the process of evolution of target-site-based resistance to herbicides inhibiting acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) in nine French populations of black-grass (Alopecurus myosuroides Huds). To date, two different ACCase resistant alleles are known. One contains an isoleucine-to-leucine substitution at position 1781, the second contains an isoleucine-to-asparagine substitution at position 2041....
