Resistance Mechanisms to 2,4-D in Six Different Dicotyledonous Weeds Around the World

2,4-D resistance is increasing around the world due to both transgenic crops and resistance to other herbicides. The objective of the this study was to characterize the currently unknown mechanisms of 2,4-D resistance in five weed species from around the globe: <i>Amaranthus hybridus</i>...

description 2,4-D resistance is increasing around the world due to both transgenic crops and resistance to other herbicides. The objective of the this study was to characterize the currently unknown mechanisms of 2,4-D resistance in five weed species from around the globe: <i>Amaranthus hybridus</i> (Argentina), <i>Conyza canadensis</i> (Hungary), <i>Conyza sumatrensis</i> (France), <i>Hirschfeldia incana</i> (Argentina) and <i>Parthenium hysterophorus</i> (Dominican Republic), using <i>Papaver rhoeas</i> (Spain) as a standard resistant (R) species. Dose-response trials using malathion and absorption, translocation and metabolism experiments were performed to unravel the resistance mechanisms. R plants produced at least 3-folds less ethylene than susceptible plants, confirming the resistance to 2,4-D, together with resistance factors >4. <i>A. hybridus</i>, <i>P. hysterophorus</i> and <i>P. rhoeas</i> showed both reduced translocation and enhanced metabolism. In the two <i>Conyza</i> sps., the only resistance mechanism found was enhanced metabolism. Malathion synergized with 2,4-D in all these species, indicating the role of cytochrome P450 in the herbicide degradation. In <i>H. incana</i>, reduced translocation was the only contributing mechanism to resistance. Among the six dicotyledonous weed species investigated, there was a differential contribution to 2,4-D resistance of enhanced metabolism and reduced translocation. Thus, extrapolating 2,4-D resistance mechanisms from one weed species to another is very risky, if even related.
