HRAC GROUP 9 (LEGACY G) RESISTANT RIGID RYEGRASS
(Lolium rigidum)

Inhibition of Enolpyruvyl Shikimate Phosphate Synthase HRAC Group 9 (Legacy G)

Australia, New South Wales

INTRODUCTION		RIGID RYEGRASS
Rigid Ryegrass (Lolium rigidum) is a monocot weed in the Poaceae family. In New South Wales this weed first evolved resistance to Group 9 (Legacy G) herbicides in 1997 and infests Apples, Around Buildings, Canola, Cereals, Fencelines, Irrigation Channels, Roadsides, and Wheat. Group 9 (Legacy G) herbicides are known as Inhibition of Enolpyruvyl Shikimate Phosphate Synthase (Inhibition of EPSP synthase). Research has shown that these particular biotypes are resistant to glyphosate and they may be cross-resistant to other Group 9 (Legacy G) herbicides. The 'Group' letters/numbers that you see throughout this web site refer to the classification of herbicides by their site of action.

NOTES ABOUT THIS BIOTYPE

AREAS FOUND

Andrew Storrie

Subsequent infestations of glyphosate resistant ryegrass were found on the Liverpool plains, which is in northern NSW. Seed from this was tested by Jim Pratley's team at Wagga and Chris Preston's team at Adelaide. Also have 2 farms in a different agricultural zone between Barradine and Coonamble, NSW. This area has no links to the Liverpool Plains area. Patches to individual tussocks would be spread over at least 5000 ac (2000 ha). There are several farms where whole fields are infested with resistant ryegrass. Other infestations are being found along irrigation channels and various types of orchards.

CONTROL STRATEGIES

Andrew Storrie

Methods of control for patches and individual plants include spot spraying or the use of “detect’ type sprayers with clethodim. The use of clethodim is considered a high risk for the development of ACCASE resistance. Farmers with larger infestations have resorted to cultivation, which is a big step for these no-tillers. Trifluralin is used pre-plant on winter broadleaf crops. The majority of these growers don't run livestock on these areas, so pastures are not a viable management option.

ONGOING RESEARCH

Andrew Storrie

This winter (2004) we conducted a pre-plant “double knockdown” trial on resistant ryegrass at DC 11-13. Glyphosate (675 g a.i./ha) was applied first, followed 8 or 14 days later by another knockdown herbicide. The glyphosate stuns the resistant plants for 7-10 days before the ryegrass begins to re-grow. Paraquat (375 g a.i/ha) at 8 days gave 89% and 14 days gave 97% control respectively. The later application controlled later emerging seedlings. Single applications of glufosinate at 400g a.i./ha and 800g a.i./ha gave 78% and 91% control respectively. We need to investigate the strategic use of residual products in this farming system and still maintain cropping flexibility.

Zakia El-Mastouri, Pavlina Kosnarova, Katerina Hamouzova, Ezzedine Alimi, Josef Soukup. 2024. Insight into the herbicide resistance patterns in Lolium rigidum populations in Tunisian and Moroccan wheat regions. Front. Plant Sci. 15 : 1 - 12.

Rigid ryegrass (Lolium rigidum Gaud.) is one of the most troublesome weeds in Moroccan and Tunisian cereal crop fields. In total, 19 rigid ryegrass field populations were randomly selected in northern wheat crop areas of Morocco and Tunisia to examine the patterns of herbicide resistance to acetolactate synthase (ALS)- and acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase)-inhibiting herbicides. Greenhouse experiments confirmed reduced sensitivity to ALS- and/or ACCase-inhibiting herbicides in all L. rigidum populations. The occurrence of target-site resistance (TSR) was tested using high-throughput genotyping. The advent of next-generation sequencing (NGS) has enabled easy identification of causal mutations and confirmed the presence of ALS and ACCase mutations at specific codons conferring TSR. Thirteen populations showed resistance to ALS inhibiting herbicides associated with point mutations in positions Pro-197-Thr, Pro-197 Ser, Pro-197-Leu, Pro-197-Gln and Trp-574-Leu, while resistance to ACCase-inhibiting herbicides was detected in 18 populations in positions Asp-2078-Val, Trp-2027-Cys, Ile-1781-Leu, Gly-2096-Ala, and Ile 2041-Asn of the enzymes conferring TSR. Additionally, dose–response experiments with pyroxsulam applied after the inhibition of cytochrome P450 monooxygenase by malathion showed an increase in sensitivity in two out of seven highly resistant (HR) rigid ryegrass populations. This demonstrates the presence of non target site resistance (NTSR) in some ryegrass populations. Further evidence of NTSR was investigated in dose–response experiments with pyroxsulam, following pretreatment with the glutathione S-transferase (GST) inhibitor 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzoxadiazole (NBD-Cl), which partially reversed resistance in only a few individuals of two L. rigidum populations. Hence, our study confirms the existence of multiple and cross resistance to ALS- and ACCase-inhibiting herbicides in L. rigidum from Morocco and Tunisia with both TSR and NTSR mechanisms. These results emphasize local resistance management as an important tool to detect and mitigate gene flow from rigid ryegrass populations where resistance has evolved..

Resistance to ACCase and ALS-inhibiting herbicides detected in targeted sampling of Lolium rigidum (rigid ryegrass) populations from cereal crops in Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia. Crop Protection 186 : 1 - 9.

Lolium rigidum Gaud. (rigid ryegrass) is one of the most widespread weeds in cereal crops in Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia. This weed has evolved resistance to various herbicide modes of action in this region. ACCase and ALS inhibiting herbicides are mainly used in the major-cereal growing regions to control rigid ryegrass. Through a questionnaire, regions where farmers reported less control of herbicide treatments were registered in the three Maghreb countries. Registered fields were visited for collection and 75 field populations were screened with two ACCase and two ALS herbicides. Target site resistance (TSR) was diagnosed using Illumina Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology. The sensitivity bioassay results revealed over 60% of sampled populations to be resistant to pinoxaden and/or clodinafop and about 40% to be resistant to iodosulfuron + mesosulfuron and/or pyroxsulam. In addition, 53% of populations displayed resistance (R) to the two herbicide modes of action tested among the regions. In total, 16 ACCase and 11 ALS mutant alleles were identified, carrying out an amino-acid substitution and conferring herbicide resistance in 3700 of the analyzed plants. Most ACCase and ALS mutations were detected at codons Ile1781 and Pro197, respectively. Not only does this study demonstrate the presence of both cross and multiple resistance, it also highlights the non-ACCase and non-ALS -based resistance mechanisms that could confer resistance to herbicides with different modes of action which complicates the resistance management strategies. In the three Maghreb countries, this challenge is even more prominent due to few modes of action being available for rigid ryegrass control due to low-cost market and the prevalence of generic herbicides..

Fernández-Moreno PT, Bastida F, De Prado R. 2015. First case of glyphosate resistance in France. Agronomy for Sustainable Development 35 : 1469 - 1476.

Glyphosate is a broad-spectrum systemic herbicide used to kill weeds, especially annual broadleaf weeds and grasses known to compete with commercial crops grown around the globe. However, weeds evolve and develop resistance to glyphosate. Until recently, no case of glyphosate resistance had been detected in France. Glyphosate resistance was indeed recently recorded in a Lolium rigidum weed population from a vineyard in the South of France. Here, we studied the mechanisms of this resistance case. Seed samples of L. rigidum were collected from the vineyard where resistance had been detected, as well as from a nearby area that had no known history of exposure to glyphosate. We studied the effect of retention of glyphosate spray, shikimic acid accumulation, glyphosate absorption and translocation, glyphosate metabolism, and the sequence of the enzyme that glyphosate targets in plants, 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase. Our results show that glyphosate absorption decreased by 30 % in the resistant L. rigidum weed. In addition, glyphosate translocation out of the treated leaves was reduced by 52 %. Finally, the resistant biotype had a serine amino acid substitution at position 106 of the predicted protein, instead of the proline amino acid present in the susceptible population. Our results suggest that the resistant population of L. rigidumpresents three different mechanisms of resistance to glyphosate, namely reduced absorption, reduced mobility in the plants, and a mutation in the gene coding for the enzyme targeted by glyphosate..

Populations of rigid ryegrass with resistance to glyphosate have started to become a problem on fence lines of cropping fields of southern Australian farms. Seed of rigid ryegrass plants that survived glyphosate application were collected from two fence line locations in Clare, South Australia. Dose-response experiments confirmed resistance of these fence line populations to glyphosate. Both populations required 9- to 15-fold higher glyphosate dose to achieve 50% mortality in comparison to a standard susceptible population. The mechanism of resistance in these populations was investigated. Sequencing a conserved region of the gene encoding 5-enolpyruvyl-shikimate-3-phosphate synthase identified no differences between the resistant and susceptible populations. Absorption of glyphosate into leaves of the resistant populations was not different from the susceptible population. However, the resistant plants retained significantly more herbicide in the treated leaf blades than did the susceptible plants. Conversely, susceptible plants translocated significantly more herbicide to the leaf sheaths and untreated leaves than the resistant plants. The differences in translocation pattern for glyphosate between the resistant and susceptible populations of rigid ryegrass suggest resistance is associated with altered translocation of glyphosate in the fence line populations..

Agricultural weeds have rapidly adapted to intensive herbicide selection and resistance to herbicides has evolved within ecological timescales. Yet, the genetic basis of broad-spectrum generalist herbicide resistance is largely unknown. This study aims to determine the genetic control of non-target-site herbicide resistance trait(s) that rapidly evolved under recurrent selection of the novel lipid biosynthesis inhibitor pyroxasulfone in Lolium rigidum. The phenotypic segregation of pyroxasulfone resistance in parental, F₁ and back-cross (BC) families was assessed in plants exposed to a gradient of pyroxasulfone doses. The inheritance of resistance to chemically dissimilar herbicides (cross-resistance) was also evaluated. Evolved resistance to the novel selective agent (pyroxasulfone) is explained by Mendelian segregation of one semi-dominant allele incrementally herbicide-selected at higher frequency in the progeny. In BC families, cross-resistance is conferred by an incompletely dominant single major locus. This study confirms that herbicide resistance can rapidly evolve to any novel selective herbicide agents by continuous and repeated herbicide use. The results imply that the combination of herbicide options (rotation, mixtures or combinations) to exploit incomplete dominance can provide acceptable control of broad-spectrum generalist resistance-endowing monogenic traits. Herbicide diversity within a set of integrated management tactics can be one important component to reduce the herbicide selection intensity..
