Germination Characteristics Associated With Glutathione S-Transferases Endowed Quizalofop-p-Ethyl Resistance in Polypogon fugax.

ABSTRACT: Quantification of germination characteristics between herbicide-resistant and -susceptible weeds might provide methods to control resistant weeds and permit better prediction of evolution and persistence of herbicide resistance. This study aimed to compare the germination characteristics of Asian minor bluegrass (Polypogon fugax) populations that are resistant or susceptible to quizalofop-p-ethyl under controlled conditions, which the resistance mechanism is involved in glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) metabolism-based resistance. No major differences in seed germination were found at diverse temperatures, pH ranges, and light conditions. However, a significant difference that seed response to a gradient of osmotic and salt stress between the resistant and susceptible P. fugax</
