HRAC GROUP 2 (LEGACY B) RESISTANT WHITE WALLROCKET
(Diplotaxis erucoides)

Inhibition of Acetolactate Synthase HRAC Group 2 (Legacy B)

Israel
INTRODUCTION WHITE WALLROCKET
White Wallrocket (Diplotaxis erucoides) is a dicot weed in the Brassicaceae family.  In Israel this weed first evolved resistance to Group 2 (Legacy B) herbicides in 2012 and infests Wheat.   Group 2 (Legacy B) herbicides are known as Inhibition of Acetolactate Synthase (Inhibition of Acetolactate Synthase ).  Research has shown that these particular biotypes are resistant to florasulam, flumetsulam, imazamox, imazethapyr, and tribenuron-methyl and they may be cross-resistant to other Group 2 (Legacy B) 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.

NOTES ABOUT THIS BIOTYPE

MECHANISM

ALS inhibitor resistance in  Diplotaxis erucoides is due to a Tryptophan 574 to Leucine mutation.  Maor Matzrafi.

ACADEMIC ASPECTS

Confirmation Tests

Greenhouse, and Laboratory trials comparing a known susceptible White Wallrocket biotype with this White Wallrocket biotype have been used to confirm resistance. For further information on the tests conducted please contact the local weed scientists that provided this information.
 
Genetics

Genetic studies on HRAC Group 2 resistant White Wallrocket indicate that the inheritance is determined by a dominant trait.  There may be a note below or an article discussing the genetics of this biotype in the Fact Sheets and Other Literature
 
Mechanism of Resistance

Studies on the mechanism of resistance of Group 2 (Legacy B) resistant White Wallrocket from Israel indicate that resistance is due to an altered target site.  There may be a note below or an article discussing the mechanism of resistance in the Fact Sheets and Other Literature
 
Relative Fitness

There is no record of differences in fitness or competitiveness of these resistant biotypes when compared to that of normal susceptible biotypes.  If you have any information pertaining to the fitness of Group 2 (Legacy B) resistant White Wallrocket from Israel please update the database.
