Abstract
Echinochloa glabrescens Munro ex Hook. f. is a weed of the genus Echinocloa (Echinocloa spp.) that occurs frequently in paddy fields, causing serious harm to rice production. Florpyrauxifen-benzyl (FPB) is a foliar-applied herbicide used to control Echinocloa spp. in paddy fields. However, in recent years, with the widespread use of FPB in rice production, FPB-resistant barnyard grasses have been reported. Here, we identified an FPB-resistant E. glabrescens population with a resistance index (RI) of 10.65 and conducted a comparative analysis using untargeted metabolomics and transcriptomics to investigate the differences between an FPB-resistant E. glabrescens population and a susceptible E. glabrescens population after treatment with the recommended field dose of FPB. Our results showed that the FPB-resistant E. glabrescens had 115 differentially accumulated metabolites (DAMs; 65 up-regulated and 50 down-regulated) and 6397 differentially expressed genes (DEGs; 65 up-regulated and 50 down-regulated) compared to the susceptible E. glabrescens. The analysis of DAMs and DEGs revealed that DAMs were significantly enriched in Glutathione metabolism, Arginine and proline metabolism, and Zeatin biosynthesis pathways, while DEGs were mainly enriched in carbon fixation in photosynthetic organisms, photosynthesis, cyanoamino acid metabolism and glutathione metabolism, etc. The glutathione metabolism pathway was found to be significantly enriched for both DEGs and DAMs. Within this pathway, the metabolites (spermine) and genes (GSTU8, GSTU18, GSTF1) may play a pivotal role in the resistance mechanism of FPB-resistant E. glabrescens. Furthermore, we demonstrated the presence of GST-mediated metabolic resistance in an FPB-resistant E. glabrescens population by using NBD-Cl. Overall, our study provides new insights into the underlying mechanisms of E. glabrescens resistance to FPB through a comparative analysis of untargeted metabolomics and transcriptomics. Additionally, we identified the GST-mediated metabolic resistance in an FPB-resistant E. glabrescens population, and screened for three candidate genes (GSTU8, GSTU18, GSTF1), which has significant implications for improving the weed management efficacy of FPB in rice production and guiding judicious herbicide usage.

Abstract
Tembotrione is a triketone herbicide widely used for broad-spectrum weed control in corn but not registered for use in wheat. A wide collection of spring, winter, and EMS-derived mutant lines of wheat was evaluated for their response to tembotrione treatment. Two winter wheat (WW) genotypes (WW-1 and WW-2) were found to be least sensitive to this herbicide, surviving >6 times the field recommended dose (92 g ai ha-1) compared to the most sensitive genotype (WW-24). Further, HPLC analysis using [14C] tembotrione suggested that both WW-1 and WW-2 metabolized tembotrione rapidly to nontoxic metabolites. Pretreatment with a P450 inhibitor (malathion) followed by tembotrione application increased the sensitivity of WW-1 and WW-2 genotypes to this herbicide, suggesting likely involvement of P450 enzymes in metabolizing tembotrione similar to corn. Overall, our results suggest that the genotypes WW-1 and WW-2 can potentially be used to develop tembotrione-resistant wheat varieties.

Abstract
Metabolic resistance to the maize-selective, HPPD-inhibiting herbicide, mesotrione, occurs via Phase I ring hydroxylation in resistant waterhemp and Palmer amaranth; however, mesotrione detoxification pathways post-Phase I are unknown. This research aims to (1) evaluate Palmer amaranth populations for mesotrione resistance via survivorship, foliar injury, and aboveground biomass, (2) determine mesotrione metabolism rates in Palmer amaranth populations during a time course, and (3) identify mesotrione metabolites including and beyond Phase I oxidation. The Palmer amaranth populations, SYNR1 and SYNR2, exhibited higher survival rates (100%), aboveground biomass (c.a. 50%), and lower injury (25-30%) following mesotrione treatment than other populations studied. These two populations also metabolized mesotrione 2-fold faster than sensitive populations, PPI1 and PPI2, and rapidly formed 4-OH-mesotrione. Additionally, SYNR1 and SYNR2 formed 5-OH-mesotrione, which is not produced in high abundance in waterhemp or naturally tolerant maize. Metabolite features derived from 4/5-OH-mesotrione and potential Phase II mesotrione-conjugates were detected and characterized by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LCMS).

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.

Abstract
Crabgrass (Digitaria sanguinalis) is a common malignant weed in corn fields in China. Recently, the acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibitor, nicosulfuron, has shown decreasing efficacy against crabgrass. In order to elucidate the molecular basis of resistance to nicosulfuron in crabgrass, we conducted bioassays, combined with gene sequence analysis, relative expression and relative copy number analysis, to characterize resistance in crabgrass populations collected from Beijing, Heilongjiang, Jilin and Anhui provinces. Whole-plant dose-response results indicated that only population collected in Heilongjiang province (HLJ) had developed low level of resistance to nicosulfuron compared with the sensitive population (SD22). No known resistant mutation of ALS gene was found in HLJ population. The real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR results showed that the ALS gene copy number did not differ significantly between the HLJ and SD22 populations. However, the ALS gene expression in the HLJ was 2.07-fold higher than that of the SD22 population at 24 h after treatment with nicosulfuron. Pretreatment with the cytochrome P450 (CYP450) inhibitor malathion, piperonyl butoxide (PBO), and the glutathione S-transferase (GST) inhibitor 4-Chloro-7-nitro-1,2,3-benzoxadiazole (NBD-Cl) all partially reversed HLJ resistance. Among them, the synergistic effect of PBO and nicosulfuron is the most significant. This is the first report of resistance to nicosulfuron in crabgrass through ALS gene overexpression and possible metabolic resistance.

Abstract
Omics techniques, including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics have smoothed the researcher's ability to generate hypotheses and discover various agronomically relevant functions and mechanisms, as well as their implications and associations. With a significant increase in the number of cases with resistance to multiple herbicide modes of action, studies on herbicide resistance are currently one of the predominant areas of research within the field of weed science. High-throughput technologies have already started revolutionizing the current molecular weed biology studies. The evolution of herbicide resistance in weeds (particularly via non-target site resistance mechanism) is a perfect example of a complex, multi-pathway integration-induced response. To date, functional genomics, including transcriptomic and metabolomic studies have been used separately in herbicide resistance research, however there is a substantial lack of integrated approach. Hence, despite the ability of omics technologies to provide significant insights into the molecular functioning of weeds, using a single omics can sometimes be misleading. This mini-review will aim to discuss the current progress of transcriptome-based and metabolome-based approaches in herbicide resistance research, along with their systematic integration.

Abstract
Pyroxasulfone (PYS) is an isoxazole herbicide favored for its high activity. However, the metabolic mechanism of PYS in tomato plants and the response mechanism of tomato to PYS are still lacking. In this study, it was found that tomato seedlings had a strong ability to absorb and translocate PYS from roots to shoots. The highest accumulation of PYS was in the apex tissue of the tomato shoots. Using UPLC-MS/MS, five metabolites of PYS were detected and identified in tomato plants, and their relative contents in different parts of tomato plants varied greatly. The serine conjugate, DMIT [5, 5-dimethyl-4, 5-dihydroisoxazole-3-thiol (DMIT)] &Ser, was the most abundant metabolites of PYS in tomato plants. In tomato plants, the conjugation of thiol-containing metabolic intermediates of PYS to serine may mimic the cystathionine β-synthase-catalyzed condensation of serine and homocysteine (in the pathway sly00260 sourced from KEGG database). This study ground breakingly proposed that serine may play an important role in plant metabolism of PYS and fluensulfone (whose molecular structure is similar to PYS). PYS and atrazine (whose toxicity profile is similar to PYS but not conjugate with serine) produced different regulatory outcomes for endogenous compounds in the pathway sly00260. Differential metabolites in tomato leaves exposed to PYS compared with the control, including amino acids, phosphates, and flavonoids, may play important roles in tomato response to PYS stress. This study provides inspiration for the biotransformation of sulfonyl-containing pesticides, antibiotics and other compounds in plants.

Abstract
Weeds cause tremendous economic and ecological damage worldwide. The number of genomes established for weed species has sharply increased during the recent decade, with some 26 weed species having been sequenced and de novo genomes assembled. These genomes range from 270 Mb (Barbarea vulgaris) to almost 4.4 Gb (Aegilops tauschii). Importantly, chromosome-level assemblies are now available for 17 of these 26 species, and genomic investigations on weed populations have been conducted in at least 12 species. The resulting genomic data have greatly facilitated studies of weed management and biology, especially origin and evolution. Available weed genomes have indeed revealed valuable weed-derived genetic materials for crop improvement. In this review, we summarize the recent progress made in weed genomics and provide a perspective for further exploitation in this emerging field.

Abstract
Glyphosate is one of the most widely used herbicides in the world. However, because of its overuse and resistance to degradation, high levels of glyphosate residues in the environment are reported. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of glyphosate on proteomic aspects of Tetrahymena thermophila and their uses as bioindicators of freshwater ecosystem. First, an acute toxicity test was performed to determine the median inhibition concentration (IC50 ). The toxicity test results showed that glyphosate inhibited the growth (proliferation) of T. thermophila. The 96 h-IC50 value of glyphosate was 171 mg L-1 . No visible changes in aggregation behavior and cell morphology were observed under glyphosate exposure. In addition, the effects of low and high dose glyphosate concentrations (77.5 mg L-1 , 171 mg L-1 ) on the proteomic changes of T. thermophila was investigated using a label-free shotgun proteomic approach. A total of 3191 proteins were identified, 2791 proteins were expressed in the control, 2651 proteins were expressed in 77.5 mg L-1 glyphosates, and 3012 proteins were expressed in 171 mg L-1 glyphosates. Under glyphosate exposure at both low and high dose glyphosate, 400 unique proteins were upregulated. The majority of these proteins was classified as proteins associated with oxidative stress response and intracellular transport indicating the shifts in the internal metabolism. Proteomics revealed that the glyphosate metabolism by T. thermophila is a multi-step process involving several enzymes, which can be divided into four phases, including modification (phase I), conjugation (phase II), transport (phase III), and degradation (phase IV). The accumulation of various biochemical reactions contributes to overall glyphosate resistance. With the proteomics approach, we have found that T. thermophila was equipped with glyphosate detoxification and degradation mechanisms.

Genetic Analysis and Fine Mapping of ZmGHT1 Conferring Glufosinate Herbicide Tolerance in Maize (Zea mays L.). Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms231911481.

Abstract
Weed interference in the crop field is one of the major biotic stresses causing dramatic crop yield losses, and the development of herbicide-resistant crops is critical for weed control in the application of herbicide technologies. To identify herbicide-resistant germplasms, we screened 854 maize inbreed lines and 25,620 seedlings by spraying them with 1 g/L glufosinate. One plant (L336R), possibly derived from a natural variation of line L336, was identified to have the potential for glufosinate tolerance. Genetic analysis validated that the glufosinate tolerance of L336R is conferred by a single locus, which was tentatively designated as ZmGHT1. By constructing a bi-parental population derived from L336R, and a glufosinate sensitive line L312, ZmGHT1 was mapped between molecular markers M9 and M10. Interestingly, genomic comparation between the two sequenced reference genomes showed that large scale structural variations (SVs) occurred within the mapped region, resulting in 2.16 Mb in the inbreed line B73, and 11.5 kb in CML277, respectively. During the fine mapping process, we did not detect any additional recombinant, even by using more than 9500 F2 and F3 plants, suspecting that SVs should also have occurred between L336R and L312 in this region, which inhibited recombination. By evaluating the expression of the genes within the mapped interval and using functional annotation, we predict that the gene Zm00001eb361930, encoding an aminotransferase, is the most likely causative gene. After glufosinate treatment, lower levels of ammonia content and a higher activity of glutamine synthetase (GS) in L336R were detected compared with those of L336 and L312, suggesting that the target gene may participate in ammonia elimination involving GS activity. Collectively, our study can provide a material resource for maize herbicide resistant breeding, with the potential to reveal a new mechanism for herbicide resistance.
