Soybean dose-response to 2,4-D and dicamba at vegetative and reproductive growth stages.

Background: Field experiments were conducted across multiple sites in 2012 and 2013 to describe sensitivity of soybean to 2,4-D (six doses) and dicamba (seven doses) at V3 and R1 growth stages. Further experiments were conducted under greenhouse conditions in 2017 and 2018 to compare soybean response to several dicamba herbicides across a broader range of doses than those tested in the field.

Results: Soybean yield loss was 6.

EPSPS amplification in glyphosate-resistant spiny amaranth (Amaranthus spinosus): a case of gene transfer via interspecific hybridization from glyphosate-resistant Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri).

Background: Amaranthus spinosus, a common weed of pastures, is a close relative of Amaranthus palmeri, a problematic agricultural weed with widespread glyphosate resistance. These two species have been known to hybridize, allowing for transfer of glyphosate resistance. Glyphosate-resistant A.
