Renton M, Willse A, Aradhya C, Tyre A, Head G. Simulated herbicide mixtures delay both specialist monogenic and generalist polygenic resistance evolution in weeds. PEST MANAGEMENT SCIENCE 2024. [PMID: 39096081 DOI: 10.1002/ps.8331] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2023] [Revised: 07/05/2024] [Accepted: 07/09/2024] [Indexed: 08/04/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Evolution of herbicide-resistant weed populations is a major challenge to world food production. Using different herbicides in rotation and/or using different herbicides together as mixtures are strategies that may delay the selection of resistance. This study used simulation modelling to investigate whether mixtures and rotations can delay the selection of both generalist polygenic and specialist monogenic herbicide resistance, and whether these strategies are more likely to lead to the selection of generalist resistance in weed types with varying biological characteristics. RESULTS Our simulations suggest that well-designed effective herbicide mixtures should delay evolution of both polygenic and monogenic resistance better than rotations and single herbicides across all weed types. Both mixture and rotation strategies increased the likelihood of polygenic resistance compared to single-herbicide use, and the likelihood of polygenic resistance increased as the fecundity and competitiveness of the weed increased. Whether monogenic or polygenic resistance occurred in each case depended most on the relative initial allele frequencies. We did not find that herbicide mixtures were more likely than rotations to lead to the selection of generalist polygenic resistance. The simulated efficacy of mixtures over rotations decreased if components were used at reduced rates or when individual components had already been used solo. CONCLUSION Herbicide rotations and particularly well-designed mixtures should delay evolution of both polygenic and monogenic resistance, especially if used as part of an effective integrated weed management programme. However, herbicide mixtures and rotations may also increase the risk that resistance will be generalist polygenic rather than specialist monogenic. © 2024 The Author(s).

Panozzo S, Farinati S, Sattin M, Scarabel L. Can allele-specific loop-mediated isothermal amplification be used for rapid detection of target-site herbicide resistance in Lolium spp.? PLANT METHODS 2023; 19:14. [PMID: 36750938 PMCID: PMC9906911 DOI: 10.1186/s13007-023-00989-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2022] [Accepted: 01/26/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Herbicide resistance is one of the threats to modern agriculture and its early detection is one of the most effective components for sustainable resistance management strategies. Many techniques have been used for target-site-resistance detection. Allele-Specific Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (AS-LAMP) was evaluated as a possible rapid diagnostic method for acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) and acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibiting herbicides resistance in Lolium spp. RESULTS AS-LAMP protocols were set up for the most frequent mutations responsible for herbicide resistance to ALS (positions 197, 376 and 574) and ACCase (positions 1781, 2041 and 2078) inhibitors in previously characterized and genotyped Lolium spp. POPULATIONS A validation step on new putative resistant populations gave the overview of a possible use of this tool for herbicide resistance diagnosis in Lolium spp. Regarding the ACCase inhibitor pinoxaden, in more than 65% of the analysed plants, the LAMP assay and genotyping were in keeping, whereas the results were not consistent when ALS inhibitors resistance was considered. Limitations on the use of this technique for herbicide resistance detection in the allogamous Lolium spp. are discussed. CONCLUSIONS The LAMP method used for the detection of target-site resistance in weed species could be applicable with target genes that do not have high genetic variability, such as ACCase gene in Lolium spp.

PESTICIDE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2022; 188:105256.

Abstract
Amaranthus retroflexus L., a troublesome annual dicotyledonous weed species, is highly competitive with soybean (Glycine max L.). A single-dose herbicide-resistance screening assay identified an A. retroflexus population with suspected resistance to fomesafen. Whole-plant dose-response assays demonstrated that the resistant population (2492) was resistant to protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO)-inhibiting herbicides (50.6-fold fomesafen resistance and > 8.1-fold lactofen resistance) compared to a susceptible (S) population. PPX2 gene sequence analysis showed an Arg128Gly amino acid substitution in the 2492 population. Moreover, pretreatment of malathion and the fomesafen metabolic assays through HPLC-MS demonstrated enhanced fomesafen metabolism in the 2492 population. Additionally, the 2492 population was 10.4-fold more resistant to the ALS-inhibiting herbicide imazethapyr and 16.8-fold more resistant to thifensulfuron-methyl than the S population. ALS gene sequence analysis showed an Ala205Val amino acid substitution in the 2492 population. This population of A. retroflexus has coexisting target-site resistance and non-target-site mechanisms for resistance to fomesafen. Multiple herbicide resistance may mean it is necessary to adjust weed management strategies to better control the resistant population.

ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2022; 229:113072.

Abstract
Herbicide resistance to chemical herbicide is a global issue that presents an ongoing threat to grain production. Though it has been frequently implicated that the production of detoxification enzymes increased in resistance development, the mechanisms for overexpression of these genes employed by herbicide-resistant weeds remain complicated. In this study, a mesosulfuron-methyl resistant Beckmannia syzigachne population (R) was found to be cross-resistant to another herbicide pyriminobac-methyl. No known target-site mutations were detected in the R population. In contrast, the decreased uptake and enhanced metabolic rates of mesosulfuron-methyl were detected in the R than the susceptible (S) population. Two candidate ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter genes (ABCB25 and ABCC14) that were constitutively up-regulated in the R population were identified by RNA-sequencing and validated by RT-qPCR. Alteration of antioxidant enzyme activities and gene expressions implied that mesosulfuron-methyl-induced antioxidant defenses provoked reactive oxygen species (ROS) burst. ROS scavenger assay showed that ROS induces ABCB25 and ABCC14 expression. This study reported for the first time that ABC transporters mediated non-target-site resistance contributes to mesosulfuron-methyl resistance in a B. syzigachne population, and implicated that ROS burst might be involved in the overexpression of ABC transporter genes in weeds.

[PMID: 34828444 PMCID: PMC8620607 DOI: 10.3390/genes12111838] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2021] [Revised: 11/18/2021] [Accepted: 11/18/2021] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Herbicides that inhibit acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) are among the few remaining options for the post-emergence control of Lolium species in small grain cereal crops. Here, we determined the mechanism of resistance to ACCase herbicides in a Lolium multiflorum population (HGR) from France. A combined biological and molecular approach detected a novel W2027L ACCase mutation that affects aryloxyphenoxypropionate (FOP) but not cyclohexanedione (DIM) or phenylpyraxoline (DEN) subclasses of ACCase herbicides. Both the wild-type tryptophan and mutant leucine 2027-ACCase alleles could be positively detected in a single DNA-based-derived polymorphic amplified cleaved sequence (dPACS) assay that contained the targeted PCR product and a cocktail of two discriminating restriction enzymes. Additionally, we identified three well-characterised I1781L, I2041T, and D2078G ACCase target site resistance mutations as well as non-target site resistance in HGR. The non-target site component endowed high levels of resistance to FOP herbicides whilst partially impacting on the efficacy of pinoxaden and cycloxydim. This study adequately assessed the contribution of the W2027L mutation and non-target site mechanism in conferring resistance to ACCase herbicides in HGR. It also highlights the versatility and robustness of the dPACS method to simultaneously identify different resistance-causing alleles at a single ACCase codon.

Abstract
Nitroalkanes such as nitromethane, nitroethane, 1-nitropropane (1NP), and 2-nitropropane (2NP), derived from anthropogenic activities, are hazardous environmental pollutants due to their toxicity and carcinogenic activity. In nature, 3-nitropropionate (3NPA) and its derivatives are produced as a defense mechanism by many groups of organisms, including bacteria, fungi, insects, and plants. 3NPA is highly toxic as its conjugate base, propionate-3-nitronate (P3N), is a potent inhibitor of mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenase, essential to the tricarboxylic acid cycle, and can inhibit isocitrate lyase, a critical enzyme of the glyoxylate cycle. In response to these toxic compounds, several organisms on the phylogenetic scale express genes that code for enzymes involved in the catabolism of nitroalkanes: nitroalkane oxidases (NAOs) and nitronate monooxygenases (NMOs) (previously classified as nitropropane dioxygenases, NPDs). Two types of NMOs have been identified: class I and class II, which differ in structure, catalytic efficiency, and preferred substrates. This review focuses on the biochemical properties, structure, classification, and physiological functions of NMOs, and offers perspectives for their in vivo and in vitro applications. KEY POINTS: • Nitronate monooxygenases (NMOs) are key enzymes in nitroalkane catabolism. • NMO enzymes are involved in defense mechanisms in different organisms. • NMO applications include organic synthesis, biocatalysts, and bioremediation.
