INTRODUCTION SAWAH FLOWERING RUSH
Sawah Flowering Rush (Limnocharis flava) is a monocot weed in the Limnocharitaceae family.  In Malaysia this weed first evolved multiple resistance (to 2 herbicide sites of action) in 1998 and infests Rice.  Multiple resistance has evolved to herbicides in the Groups 2 (Legacy B), and Auxin Mimics HRAC Group 4 (Legacy O).  These particular biotypes are known to have resistance to 2,4-D, and bensulfuron-methyl and they may be cross-resistant to other herbicides in the Groups 2 (Legacy B), and Auxin Mimics HRAC Group 4 (Legacy O).

The 'Group' letters/numbers that you see throughout this web site refer to the classification of herbicides by their site of action. To see a full list of herbicides and HRAC herbicide classifications click here.
