A novel mutation Trp-2027-Gly in acetyl-CoA carboxylase confers resistance to cyhalofop-butyl in Chinese sprangletop (Leptochloa chinensis). PEST MANAGEMENT SCIENCE 2024. [PMID: 39105535 DOI: 10.1002/ps.8353] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2024] [Revised: 07/15/2024] [Accepted: 07/19/2024] [Indexed: 08/07/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chinese sprangletop [Leptochloa chinensis (L.) Nees] control is threatened by resistance to acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase)-inhibiting herbicides. In this study, a L. chinensis population, HFLJ18, that survived cyhalofop-butyl [aryloxyphenoxypropionate (APP) herbicide, CyB] treatment was collected from a rice field in Lujiang County, Anhui Province, China. This study aimed to evaluate the susceptibility of HFLJ18 to herbicides with different modes-of-action and investigate the potential mechanisms of resistance to CyB. RESULTS The HFLJ18 population exhibited high levels of resistance to CyB (10.92-fold) and showed resistance to the ACCase inhibitors metamifop (4.63-fold) and fenoxaprop-P-ethyl (8.39-fold), but was susceptible to clethodim, pinoxaden, florpyrauxifen-benzyl, oxadiazon and pretilachlor. Target gene sequencing revealed a novel Trp-to-Gly substitution at codon position 2027 of ACCase in the resistant plants. Molecular docking revealed that the spatial structure of ACCase changed significantly following the substitution, as indicated by reduced H-bonds. A newly derived cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence (dCAPS) marker was subsequently developed to detect the Trp-2027-Gly mutation in the ACCase of L. chinensis. Additionally, pretreatment with the cytochrome P450 (P450) inhibitor piperonyl butoxide (PBO) and the glutathione S-transferase (GST) inhibitor 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzoxadiazole (NBD-Cl) did not reverse resistance to CyB, suggesting that nontarget-site resistance mechanisms were not involved in CyB resistance in the HFLJ18 population. CONCLUSION Overall, the resistance to CyB in the HFLJ18 population derived from the mutation of ACCase gene, and to the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of the ACCase Trp-2027-Gly mutation conferring resistance to ACCase-inhibiting herbicides in grass species. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Two Cytochrome P450s, CYP709B1 and CYP704C1, Play Essential Roles in Metabolism-Based Multiple Herbicide Resistance in American Sloughgrass ( Beckmannia syzigachne (Steud.) Fernald).

Abstract
This study confirmed a field population of American sloughgrass (Beckmannia syzigachne (Steud.) Fernald) that developed simultaneously high levels of resistance (resistance index >10) to three divergent modes of action herbicides: fenoxaprop-P-ethyl, mesosulfuron-methyl, and isoproturon. The resistance phenotype observed in this population was not attributed to target-site alterations; rather, the resistant plants exhibited a significant increase in the activity of cytochrome P450s (P450s) and enhanced metabolism rates for all three herbicides. RNA sequencing revealed significant upregulation of two P450s, CYP709B1 and CYP704C1, in the resistant plants both before and after herbicide treatments. Molecular docking predicted that the homology models of these P450s should exhibit a binding affinity for a range of herbicides. The heterologous expression of the identified P450s in yeast cells indicated improved growth in the presence of all three of the aforementioned herbicides. Collectively, the increased expression of CYP709B1 and CYP704C1 likely contributed to the P450s-mediated enhanced metabolism, thereby conferring multiple herbicide resistance in B. syzigachne.

Abstract
Weeds present a significant challenge to agricultural productivity, and acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase)-inhibiting herbicides have proven to be effective in managing weed populations in rice fields. To develop ACCase-inhibiting herbicide-resistant rice, we generated mutants of rice ACCase (OsACC) featuring Ile-1792-Leu or Gly-2107-Ser substitutions through ethyl methyl sulfonate (EMS) mutagenesis. The Ile-1792-Leu mutant displayed cross-resistance to aryloxyphenoxypropionate (APP) and phenylpyrazoline (DEN) herbicides, whereas the Gly-2107-Ser mutants primarily exhibited cross-resistance to APP herbicides with diminished resistance to the DEN herbicide. In vitro assays of the OsACC activity revealed an increase in resistance to haloxyfop and quizalofop, ranging from 4.84- to 29-fold in the mutants compared to that in wild-type. Structural modeling revealed that both mutations likely reduce the binding affinity between OsACC and ACCase inhibitors, thereby imparting resistance. This study offers insights into two target-site mutations, contributing to the breeding of herbicide-resistant rice and presenting alternative weed management strategies in rice cultivation.

PESTICIDE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2024; 200:105826.

Abstract
Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase)-inhibiting herbicides are among the most commonly used herbicides to control grassy weeds, especially Leptochloa chinensis, in rice fields across China. Herein, we collected a suspected resistant (R) population of L. chinensis (HFLJ16) from Lujiang county in Anhui Province. Whole plant dose response tests showed that, compared with the susceptible (S) population, the R population showed high resistance to cyhalofop-butyl (22-fold) and displayed cross-resistance to metamifop (9.7-fold), fenoxaprop-P-ethyl (18.7-fold), quizalofop-P-ethyl (7.6-fold), clodinafop-propargyl (12-fold) and clethodim (8.4-fold). We detected an amino acid substitution (Cys-2088-Arg) in the ACCase of resistant L. chinensis. However, ACCase gene expression levels were not significantly different (P > 0.05) between R plants and S plants, without or with cyhalofop-butyl treatment. Furthermore, pretreatment with piperonyl butoxide (PBO, a cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (CYP450) inhibitor) or 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzoxadiazole (NBD-Cl, a glutathione-S-transferase (GST) inhibitor), inhibited the resistance of the R population to cyhalofop-butyl significantly (by approximately 60% and 26%, respectively). Liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry analysis showed that R plants metabolized cyhalofop-butyl and cyhalofop acid (its metabolite) significantly faster than S plants. Three CYP450 genes, one GST gene, and two ABC transporter genes were induced by cyhalofop-butyl and were overexpressed in the R population. Overall, GST-associated detoxification, CYP450 enhancement, and target-site gene mutation are responsible for the resistance of L. chinensis to cyhalofop-butyl.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Brome grass (Bromus diandrus Roth) is prevalent in the southern and western cropping regions of Australia, where it causes significant economic damage. A targeted herbicide resistance survey was conducted in 2020 by collecting brome grass populations from 40 farms in Western Australia and subjecting these samples to comprehensive herbicide screening. One sample (population 172-20), from a field that had received 12 applications of clethodim over 20 years of continuous cropping, was found to be highly resistant to the acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase)-inhibiting herbicides clethodim and quizalofop, and so the molecular basis of resistance was investigated. RESULTS All 31 individuals examined from population 172-20 carried the same resistance-endowing point mutation causing an aspartate-to-glycine substitution at position 2078 in the translated ACCase protein sequence. A wild-type susceptible population and the resistant population had similar expression levels of plastidic ACCase genes. The level of resistance to quizalofop, either standalone or in mixture with clethodim, in population 172-20 was lower under cooler growing conditions. CONCLUSION Target-site resistance to ACCase-inhibiting herbicides, conferred by one ACCase mutation, was selected in all tested brome plants infesting a field with a history of repeated clethodim use. This mutation appears to have been fixed in the infesting population. Notably, clethodim resistance in this population was not detected by the farmer, and a high future incidence of quizalofop resistance is anticipated. Herbicide resistance testing is essential for the detection of evolving weed resistance issues and to inform effective management strategies. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently, suspected cyhalofop-butyl-resistant populations of allohexaploid weed Echinochloa crus-galli var. crus-galli were discovered in rice fields in Aichi Prefecture, Japan. Analyzing the target-site ACCase genes of cyhalofop-butyl helps understand the resistance mechanism. However, in E. crus-galli, the presence of multiple ACCase genes and the lack of detailed gene investigations have complicated the analysis of target-site genes. Therefore, in this study, we characterized the herbicide response of E. crus-galli lines and thoroughly characterized the ACCase genes, including the evaluation of gene mutations in the ACCase genes of each line. RESULT Four suspected resistant lines collected from Aichi Prefecture showed varying degrees of resistance to cyhalofop-butyl and other FOP-class ACCase inhibitors but were sensitive to herbicides with other modes of action. Through genomic analysis, six ACCase loci were identified in the E. crus-galli genome. We renamed each gene based on its syntenic relationship with other ACCase genes in the Poaceae species. RNA-sequencing analysis revealed that all ACCase genes, except the pseudogenized copy ACCase2A, were transcribed at a similar level in the shoots of E. crus-galli. Mutations known to confer resistance to FOP-class herbicides, that is W1999C, W2027C/S and I2041N, were found in all resistant lines in either ACCase1A, ACCase1B or ACCase2C. CONCLUSION In this study, we found that the E. crus-galli lines were resistant exclusively to ACCase-inhibiting herbicides, with a target-site resistance mutation in the ACCase gene. Characterization of ACCase loci in E. crus-galli provides a basis for further research on ACCase herbicide resistance in Echinochloa spp. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract
Barnyardgrass [Echinochloa crus-galli (L.) P. Beauv.] is the most difficult-to-control weed species of rice production systems worldwide. It has evolved resistance to different herbicide sites of action, including the acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase)-inhibiting herbicides. Target-site mutations conferring resistance to ACCase-inhibiting herbicides are well documented; however, the role of the different ACCase genes in conferring resistance to cyhalofop-p-butyl (cyhalofop), an ACCase-inhibiting herbicide, remains poorly understood. This research assessed the contribution of gene amplification and expression of ACCase genes in a cyhalofop-resistant barnyardgrass accession. Additionally, the expression of glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs) and cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s) genes as possible contributors to resistance to cyhalofop were investigated. Results demonstrated that ACCase gene amplification does not contribute to cyhalofop resistance. However, ACCase1 and ACCase3 were found to be overexpressed in the cyhalofop-resistant barnyardgrass accession. At 24 h after cyhalofop treatment, an overexpression of 2.0- and 2.8-fold was detected in ACCase1 and ACCase3, respectively. In addition, CYP81A21 (a P450 gene) was found to be 2.5-fold overexpressed compared to the susceptible accession in the same time period. These results suggest that ACCase1, ACCase3, and CYP81A21 are crucial genes in contributing cyhalofop resistance in this barnyardgrass accession.

Abstract
Barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crus-galli (L.) P. Beauv.), one of the worst weeds in paddy fields in China, has been frequently reported evolving resistance to acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) inhibiting herbicides. However, in the previous research, more attention was paid to target-site resistance (TSR) mechanisms, the non-target-site resistance (NTSR) mechanisms have not been well-established. In this study, the potential mechanism of resistance in a metamifop-resistant E. crus-galli collected from Kunshan city, Jiangsu Province, China was investigated. Dose-response assays showed that the phenotypic resistant population (JS-R) has evolved 4.3-fold resistance to metamifop compared with the phenotypic susceptible population (YN-S). The ACCase CT gene sequencing and relative ACCase gene expression levels studies showed that no mutations were detected in the ACCase CT gene in both YN-S and JS-R, and there was no significant difference in the relative ACCase gene expression between YN-S and JS-R. After the pre-processing of glutathione-S-transferase (GSTs) inhibitor NBD-Cl, the resistance level of JS-R to metamifop was reversed 18.73%. Furthermore, the GSTs activity of JS-R plants was significantly enhanced compared to that of YN-S plants. UPLC-MS/MS revealed that JS-R plants had faster metabolic rates to metamifop than YN-S plants. Meanwhile, the JS-R popultion exhibited resistant to cyhalofop-butyl and penoxsulam. In summary, this study presented a novel discovery regarding the global emergence of metabolic resistance to metamifop in E. crus-galli. The low-level resistance observed in the JS-R population was not found to be related to TSR but rather appeared to be primarily associated with the overexpression of genes in the GSTs metabolic enzyme superfamily.

PESTICIDE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2023; 197:105691. [PMID: 38072546 DOI: 10.1016/j.pestbp.2023.105691] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2023] [Revised: 10/30/2023] [Accepted: 11/08/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Leptochloa chinensis (L.) Nees is a troublesome weed across China in rice fields, and a suspected L. chinensis resistant population (R) that has survived the recommended field dose of cyhalofop-butyl was collected in a rice field of Hunan Province, China. In this study, we aimed to determine the acetyl-CoA carboxylase-inhibiting herbicide resistance profile of this R population and to investigate its mechanisms of resistance to cyhalofop-butyl. RESULTS Compared with the susceptible population (S), the R population was confirmed to be 18.9-, 3.2-, 4.1-, 3.6- and 5.8- fold resistant to the APP herbicides cyhalofop-butyl, haloxyfop-P-methyl, clodinafop-propargyl, metamifop and fenoxaprop-P-ethyl, respectively. ACCase gene sequencing analysis revealed no known resistance mutations for TSR in the R population. Pretreatment with the glutathione S-transferase (GST) inhibitor 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzoxadiazole (NBD-Cl) and cytochrome P450 (CYP450) inhibitor malathion reversed resistance to cyhalofop-butyl. The GST gene GSTU1 and CYP450 gene CYP707A5 were constitutively upregulated in the R population according to RNA-seq analysis and RT-qPCR verification. The molecular docking results indicated a good affinity of the active site for five APP herbicides with GSTU1 and CYP707A5. CONCLUSION This study shows that the GSTU1 and CYP707A5 genes expressed highly in the R population may be responsible for cyhalofop-butyl resistance in L. chinensis.

Abstract
Leptochloa chinensis populations in China have evolved widespread resistance to acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase (ACCase)-inhibiting herbicides cyhalofop-butyl (CyB) and metamifop (Met). 124 L. chinensis populations, randomly collected from rice fields in Jiangsu Province, were surveyed for CyB and Met resistance status, and all potential ACCase gene resistance-conferring mutations and effective pre-emergence herbicides for its control were investigated. Single-dose tests confirmed that 82 (66.1%) and 70 (56.4%) populations evolved resistance to CyB and Met, respectively. ACCase sequencing revealed that 56.4% of the populations contain plants with diverse target-site ACCase mutations (Ile1781Leu, Trp1999Cys, Trp2027Cys, Trp2027Ser, Ile2041Asn, Gly2096Ala, and in particular, a Leu1818Phe mutation). Notably, the Leu1818Phe mutation had been detected in 8 resistant populations, indicating this mutation was prone to occur in L. chinensis. Additionally, 9.7% of the populations may have single metabolic resistance to CyB, as these populations was susceptible to Met, and no any ACCase mutations were found. Moreover, the resistant populations with different ACCase mutations showed 6.5 to 33.6-fold resistance to CyB, and 4.4 to 82.6-fold resistance to Met. Importantly, five pre-emergence herbicides, including pretilachlor, pendimethalin, clomazone, pyraclonil, and mefenacet, all exhibited good control effect on resistant L. chinensis populations. This work confirmed the prevalence and distribution of CyB and Met resistance in L. chinensis. Target-site ACCase mutations made a major contribution to CyB and Met resistance. Pre-emergence herbicides could be valuable tools for management of resistant L. chinensis populations.

Abstract
The emergence of 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) herbicides as efficacious target-site herbicides has been noteworthy. In recent years, only four species of broadleaf weeds have developed resistance due to the long-term widespread use of HPPD herbicides. This study represents the first reported instance of a grass weed exhibiting resistance to HPPD inhibitors. We identified a new HPPD-resistant Chinese sprangletop [Leptochloa chinensis (L.) Nees] population (R population). At the recommended dose of tripyrasulfone, the inhibition rate of the R population was only half that of the sensitive population (S). The mechanism underlying resistance does not involve target-site resistance triggered by amino acid mutations or depend on disparities within the HPPD INHIBITOR SENSITIVE 1 (HIS1) gene. The impetus for resistance appears to be interlinked with the metabolic activities of cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (P450) and glutathione S-transferase (GST) family genes. Following RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) validation, the study suggests that five P450 genes, CYP71C1, CYP74A2, CYP72A1, CYP84A1, and CYP714C2, alongside a single GST gene GSTF1, may be implicated in the process of metabolic detoxification.

BIOLOGY 2023; 12:1192. [PMID: 37759591 PMCID: PMC10525941 DOI: 10.3390/biology12091192] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2023] [Revised: 08/29/2023] [Accepted: 08/30/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023]
Abstract
Large crabgrass (Digitaria sanguinalis (L.) Scop.) is one of the major malignant grass weeds in Chinese maize (Zea mays L.) fields, and it has recently developed resistance to the acetolactate synthase (ALS)-inhibiting herbicide nicosulfuron. This study focused on a suspected nicosulfuron-resistant (R) population (LJ-01) of D. sanguinalis, collected from Lujiang County in Anhui Province, China, to explore the resistance level and potential resistance mechanism. Whole-plant dose-response testing confirmed that the LJ-01 population evolved a high level of resistance to nicosulfuron (11.5-fold) compared to the susceptible (S) population, DY-02. The ALS gene sequencing and relative expression assay of the R plants indicated that target gene mutation and overexpression were not responsible for the resistance phenotype. However, pretreatment with malathion, a known cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (P450) inhibitor, alleviated the resistance of the R population to nicosulfuron by approximately 36%. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis revealed that the R plants metabolized nicosulfuron faster than the S plants. Moreover, cross-resistance testing suggested that the R population exhibited low levels of resistance to thifensulfuron-methyl and pyrazosulfuron-ethyl, but it remained susceptible to rimsulfuron. Multiple resistance patterns showed that the R population evolved low resistance to the photosystem inhibitors bromoxynil octanoate and atrazine and sensitivity to the acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) inhibitor cyhalofop-butyl and the 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) inhibitors tembotrione, mesotrione, and topramezone. This study reports, for the first time, the simultaneous resistance to ALS and different photosystem inhibitors in D. sanguinalis. The nicosulfuron resistance observed in the R population could primarily be attributed to an enhanced metabolism involving P450 enzymes.

Abstract
Eleusine indica causes problems in direct-seeding rice fields across Jiangsu Province in China. Long-term application of chemical herbicides has led to the widespread evolution of resistance in E. indica. In this study, we surveyed the resistance level of cyhalofop-butyl (CyB) in 19 field-collected E. indica biotypes, and characterized its underlying resistance mechanisms. All 19 biotypes evolved moderate- to high-level resistance to CyB (from 5.8- to 171.1-fold). 18 biotypes had a target-site mechanism with Trp-1999-Ser, Trp-2027-Cys, or Asp-2078-Gly mutations, respectively. One biotype (JSSQ-1) was identified to have metabolic resistance, in which malathion pretreatment significantly reduced the CyB resistance, and cyhalofop acid was degraded 1.7- to 2.5-times faster in this biotype compared with a susceptible control. Furthermore, the JSSQ-1 biotype showed multiple resistance to acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) inhibitor metamifop (RI = 4.6) and fenoxaprop-p-ethyl (RI = 5.1), acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibitor imazethapyr (RI = 4.1), and hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) inhibitor mesotrione (RI = 3.5). In addition, 11 out of 19 E. indica biotypes exhibited multiple resistance to glyphosate. This research has identified the widespread occurrence of CyB resistance in E. indica, attributed to target-site mutations or enhanced metabolism. Moreover, certain biotypes have exhibited resistance to multiple herbicides or even cross-resistance. Consequently, there is an urgent need to implement diverse weed management practices to effectively combat the proliferation of this weed in rice fields.

Abstract
Digitaria ciliaris var. chrysoblephara is a xerophytic weed severely invading rice fields along with the application of rice mechanical direct seeding technology in China. This study identified one resistant population (M5) with an Ile-1781-Leu substitution in ACCase1 showing broad-spectrum resistance to three chemical classes of ACCase-inhibiting herbicides, including metamifop, cyhalofop-butyl, fenoxaprop-p-ethyl, haloxyfop-p-methyl, clethodim, sethoxydim, and pinoxaden. The other two populations, M2 and M4, without any resistance-responsible mutations, only exhibited resistance to aryloxyphenoxypropionate (APP) herbicides cyhalofop-butyl and fenoxaprop-p-ethyl. Pre-treatment with the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (P450) inhibitor PBO significantly reduced the cyhalofop-butyl resistance by 43% in the M2 population. Pre-emergence weed control with soil-applied herbicides, such as pretilachlor, pendimethalin, and oxadiazon, can effectively inhibit the germination and growth of D. ciliaris var. chrysoblephara. The present study reported a xerophytic weed species invading rice fields featuring broad-spectrum resistance to ACCase-inhibiting herbicides as a result of Ile-1781-Leu mutation of ACCase. Both target- and P450-involved non-target-site mechanisms may be contributing to resistance in D. ciliaris var. chrysoblephara species.

Abstract
Monochoria korsakowii is an increasingly significant threat to rice production across China, particularly in Liaoning province. Few studies have reported herbicide resistance in M. korsakowii, and resistance status and mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, thirty field populations of M. korsakowii were collected from 11 rice-growing regions of Liaoning, and 97% of populations had evolved resistance to bensulfuron-methyl (BM), with majority (24 of 28) showing high resistance levels (RI > 10). The first in-depth analysis of molecular features of AHAS1 and AHAS2 in BM-resistant populations showed that four Pro197 mutations (Pro197 to His, Ala, Leu or Ser) in AHAS1 and one mutation (Pro197Ser) in AHAS2 were identified. Notably, novel double Pro197Ser mutations co-occurred in both AHAS1 and AHAS2 in the most resistant line LN-20. Furthermore, resistant mutants were used to investigate the effect of Pro197 mutations on AHAS functionality, binding modes, gene expression and cross-resistance in M. korsakowii. All the detected Pro197 mutations considerably reduced in vitro AHAS sensitivity to BM by weakening hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions in the predicted BM-AHAS complexes, especially the double Pro197Ser mutations. This novel resistance mutation combination slightly impacted the extractable AHAS activity, and increased the affinity and catalytic rate of pyruvate. Also, the AHAS expression level was significantly up-regulated. Moreover, all mutations provided resistance only to other sulfonylureas herbicides but not triazolopyrimidine or pyrimidinyl-benzoates herbicides. In conclusion, bensulfuron-methyl resistance in M. korsakowii was grim in Liaoning, China, and amino acid mutations on AHAS isozymes were the primary resistance mechanism. Double Pro197Ser mutations in both AHAS1 and AHAS2 confer higher herbicide resistance than single mutations in AHAS1. Thus, this work deepens our understanding of resistance status and mechanisms of M. korsakowii.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Echinochloa glabrescens Munro ex Hook. f. is one of the main Echinochloa spp. seriously invading Chinese rice fields and has evolved resistance to commonly used herbicides. Previously, an E. glabrescens population (LJ-02) with suspected resistance to the acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase)-inhibiting herbicide metamifop was collected. This study aimed to determine its resistance status to metamifop and investigate the internal molecular mechanisms of resistance. RESULTS Single-dose testing confirmed that the LJ-02 population had evolved resistance to metamifop. Gene sequencing and a relative expression assay of ACCase ruled out target-site based resistance to metamifop in LJ-02. Whole-plant bioassays revealed that, compared with the susceptible population XZ-01, LJ-02 was highly resistant to metamifop and exhibited cross-resistance to fenoxaprop-P-ethyl. Pretreatment with the known glutathione S-transferase (GST) inhibitor, 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzoxadiazole (NBD-Cl), largely reversed the resistance to metamifop by approximately 81%. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis indicated that the metabolic rates of one of the major metabolites of metamifop, N-(2-fluorophenyl)-2-hydroxy-N-methylpropionamide (HPFMA), were up to 383-fold faster in LJ-02 plants than in XZ-01 plants. There were higher basal and metamifop-inducible GST activities toward 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB) in LJ-02 than in XZ-01. Six GST genes were metamifop-induced and overexpressed in the resistant LJ-02 population. CONCLUSION This study reports, for the first time, the occurrence of metabolic metamifop resistance in E. glabrescens worldwide. The high-level metamifop resistance in the LJ-02 population may mainly involve specific isoforms of GSTs that endow high catalytic activity and strong substrate specificity. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Shortawn foxtail (Alopecurus aequalis Sobol.), a competitive grass weed severely infesting overwintering crops worldwide, has evolved resistance to the highly efficient acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase)-inhibiting herbicide fenoxaprop-P-ethyl. The Ile-to-Asn substitution at codon position 2041 of ACCase is a dominant resistance mutation that has been associated with fenoxaprop-P-ethyl resistance in A. aequalis. However, its detection based on conventional methods such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and gene sequencing is rather labor- and time-consuming. RESULTS In order to facilitate its detection in field populations of A. aequalis, a simple and efficient method with high sensitivity to the Ile-2041-Asn mutation was developed based on loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP). A set of four primers was designed to target a 244-bp fragment of ACCase comprising codon position 2041. Using the special primers and genomic DNA of A. aequalis, the concentrations of reaction components, temperature and time each were optimized. The LAMP reaction for the detection of the Ile-2041-Asn mutation was processed at 65 °C for 45 min followed by 80 °C for 10 min to stop the reaction. The LAMP method developed was 1000-fold more sensitive than the conventional PCR method, and the detection was also practicable when using crude DNA of A. aequalis as a template. CONCLUSION The low cost, simplicity and high sensitivity of the developed LAMP assay make the detection of the Ile-2041-Asn mutation easier and quicker, which may contribute to the monitoring and management of resistance development to fenoxaprop-P-ethyl in A. aequalis. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Nees): Characterization of target-site mutations and metabolic resistance-related genes in two resistant populations. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2022; 13:990085.

Abstract
Resistance of Chinese sprangletop (Leptochloa chinensis (L.) Nees) to the herbicide cyhalofop-butyl has recently become a severe problem in rice cultivation. However, the molecular mechanisms of target-site resistance (TSR) in cyhalofop-butyl-resistant L. chinensis as well as the underlying non-target-site resistance (NTSR) have not yet been well-characterized. This study aimed to investigate cyhalofop-butyl resistance mechanisms using one susceptible population (LC-S) and two resistant populations (LC-1701 and LC-1704) of L. chinensis. We analyzed two gene copies encoding the entire carboxyltransferase (CT) domain of chloroplastic acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) from each population. Two non-synonymous substitutions were detected in the resistant L. chinensis populations (Trp2027-Cys in the ACCase1 of LC-1701 and Leu1818-Phe in the ACCase2 of LC-1704), which were absent in LC-S. As Trp2027-Cys confers resistance to ACCase-inhibiting herbicides, the potential relationship between the novel Leu1818-Phe mutation and cyhalofop-butyl resistance in LC-1704 was further explored by single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detection. Metabolic inhibition assays indicated that cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s) and glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) contributed to cyhalofop-butyl resistance in specific resistant populations. RNA sequencing showed that the P450 genes CYP71Z18, CYP71C4, CYP71C1, CYP81Q32, and CYP76B6 and the GST genes GSTF11, GSTF1, and GSTU6 were upregulated in at least one resistant population, which indicated their putative roles in cyhalofop-butyl resistance of L. chinensis. Correlation analyses revealed that the constitutive or inducible expression patterns of CYP71C4, CYP71C1, GSTF1, and GSTU6 in L. chinensis were strongly associated with the resistant phenotype. For this reason, attention should be directed towards these genes to elucidate metabolic resistance to cyhalofop-butyl in L. chinensis. The findings of this study improve the understanding of mechanisms responsible for resistance to ACCase-inhibiting herbicides in grass-weed species at the molecular level, thus aiding in the development of weed management strategies that delay the emergence of resistance to this class of pest control products.

Abstract
Chinese sprangletop (Leptochloa chinensis (L.) Nees) is a common grass species that severely threatens rice (Oryza sativa L.) cropping systems globally. Cyhalofop-butyl is a highly efficient acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase)-inhibiting herbicide widely used for control of this species in China. However, some L. chinensis populations have gradually evolved resistance to this herbicide in recent years. To better understand the cyhalofop-butyl resistance status of L. chinensis in the major rice planting area of the middle-lower Yangtze River basin, 73 populations collected from the rice fields across Anhui Province were investigated for cyhalofop-butyl susceptibility and potential herbicide resistance-conferring mutations. Single-dose testing indicated that of the 73 populations, 25 had evolved resistance to cyhalofop-butyl and were separately classified as "RRR" and "RR" populations according to their fresh weight reductions, 8 had a high risk of evolving cyhalofop-butyl resistance and were classified as "R?" populations, and 40 were susceptible and classified as "S" populations. Whole-plant dose-response experiments showed that the resistance index (RI) of these R?, RR, and RRR populations to cyhalofop-butyl ranged from 2.47 to 36.94. Target gene sequencing identified seven ACCase resistance mutations (I1781L, W1999C, W2027S, W2027L, W2027C, I2041N, and D2078G), with W1999C and W2027C the two most common detected in about three quarters of all the resistant populations. Seven populations including LASC3, BBHY1, AQQS1, HFFD3, HFFD4, AQWJ1, and HFLJ6 each carrying a specific ACCase mutation were tested for their cross- and multiple-resistance patterns. Compared with a standard susceptible population HFLY1, the seven resistant populations showed distinct cross-resistance. All had low- to high-level cross-resistance to metamifop (RIs ranging from 6.16 to 17.65), fenoxaprop-P-ethyl (RIs ranging from 6.39 to 24.08), and quizalofop-P-ethyl (RIs ranging from 2.20 to 10.25), but responded differently to clodinafop-propargyl and clethodim. Multiple-resistance testing suggested that the seven resistant populations were all susceptible to the 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase inhibitor tripyrasulfone, the protoporphyrinogen oxidase inhibitor oxyfluorfen, and the auxin mimic herbicide florpyrauxifen. In conclusion, this study has shown that cyhalofop-butyl resistance was prevalent in L. chinensis in Anhui Province, China, and target site mutation was one of the most common resistance mechanisms.

FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2022; 13:868807. [PMID: 35401603 PMCID: PMC8990753 DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2022.868807] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2022] [Accepted: 03/07/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Enhanced herbicide metabolism mediated by cytochrome P450s has been proposed as one of the major mechanisms of resistance to fenoxaprop-P-ethyl in a metabolic-herbicide-resistant biotype of Asia minor bluegrass (Polypogon fugax Nees ex Steud.). Upon pre-treatment with the P450 inhibitor piperonyl butoxide, a remarkable reduction in metabolic rates of the phytotoxic fenoxaprop-P has been observed in the resistant plants, implying that constitutive and/or fenoxaprop-P-ethyl-induced up-regulation of specific P450 isoforms are involved in the fenoxaprop-P-ethyl resistance. However, which P450 gene(s) were responsible for the metabolic resistance is still unknown. In this present study, based on the abundant gene resources of P. fugax established previously, a total of 48 putative P450 genes were isolated from the metabolic-herbicide-resistant plants and used for gene expression analysis. The most suitable reference genes for accurate normalization of real-time quantitative PCR data were first identified in P. fugax and recognized as actin (ACT), 18S rRNA (18S), and ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase oxygenase (RUBP) under fenoxaprop-P-ethyl stress, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and elongation factor 1α (EF1α) under mesosulfuron-methyl stress, and ACT, EF1α, eukaryotic initiation factor 4a (EIF4A), and 25S rRNA (25S) at different growth stages. Expression analysis of the putative P450 genes revealed that six genes, respectively, annotated as CYP709B1, CYP71A1-4, CYP711A1, CYP78A9, P450-11, and P450-39 were up-regulated more than 10-fold in the resistant plants by fenoxaprop-P-ethyl treatment, and all of them exhibited constitutively and/or herbicide-induced higher transcript levels in the fenoxaprop-P-ethyl-resistant than in the susceptible plants. Three genes, respectively, annotated as CYPRO4, CYP313A4, and CYP51H11 constantly up-regulated in the resistant than in the susceptible plants after fenoxaprop-P-ethyl treatment. Up-regulated expressions of these specific P450 genes were consistent with the higher P450 contents determined in the resistant plants. These results will help to elucidate the mechanisms for P450-mediated metabolic-herbicide resistance in P. fugax as well as other grass weed species.
