Herbicide Resistant Weeds: Assignment

Filipino sa Piling Larangan

This study aims to determine if candidate genes provide the mechanism for glyphosate resistance in wild populations of Erigeron bonariensis and if there are other genes responsible for the observed glyphosate resistance. The study involves quantitative PCR (qPCR) and RNA-Seq to determine the expression of candidate genes in wild populations of Erigeron bonariensis. The experiment will establish whether the same candidate genes are involved in the glyphosate resistance response in E. bonariensis compared to its relative, and whether there is variation in candidate gene expression among E. bonariensis populations.

Characterizing candidate genes for glyphosate resistance in Erigeron bonariensis

This study by Priyanka Chaudhari, MS in Biotechnology, California State University, Fresno aims to determine if candidate genes are involved in glyphosate resistance in wild populations of Erigeron bonariensis through quantitative PCR (qPCR). The study will examine gene expression patterns in ABC transporter genes (M10 and M11) to determine if the respective genes are upregulated in response to Glyphosate application and therefore establish their role in glyphosate resistance.

The MBA 605 Literature Review, defines herbicide resistance as the Heritable Ability of weeds to survive and reproduce in the presence of herbicide doses that are lethal to the wild type of the species. Herbicide resistance was first observed by an ornamental nursery owner in 1968.
