INTRODUCTION EARLY WATERGRASS
Early Watergrass (Echinochloa oryzoides) is a monocot weed in the Poaceae family.  In California this weed first evolved resistance to Group 15 (Legacy K3 N) herbicides in 2000 and infests Rice.   Group 15 (Legacy K3 N) herbicides are known as Very Long-Chain Fatty Acid Synthesis inhibitors (Inhibition of Very Long-Chain Fatty Acid Synthesis ).  Research has shown that these particular biotypes are resistant to molinate, and thiobencarb/benthiocarb and they may be cross-resistant to other Group 15 (Legacy K3 N) herbicides.

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.
