Cyclohexanediones (e.g., sethoxydim) are known to be inhibitors of plastid acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) of monocotyledonous plants and provoke plant death. When rape leaves were treated with 10(-3) M sethoxydim, growth rate, chlorophyll and lipid contents were reduced, but plant resisted to herbicide. [1-(14)C] Acetate labelling showed that lipid synthesis was affected by sethoxydim, probably through inhibition of chloroplast homomeric ACCase activity, and the fatty acid synthase activity (FAS) was reduced because of malonyl-CoA deficiency. In contrast, sethoxydim treatment provoked an increase in phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) activity with an accumulation of cinnamic acid, naringenin and anthocyanins. The accumulation of anthocyanins seems to reduce the damaging effect of the herbicide stress. Thus, in plant cell, the flux of carbon seems to be oriented towards protective mechanisms, and the two ACCases could have an important role in this orientation.

Avena fatua L. is one of the most damaging and malignant weeds in wheat fields in China. Fenoxaprop-P-ethyl, mesosulfuron-methyl, and isoproturon, which belong to Acetyl-CoA carboxylase- (ACCase), acetolactate synthase- (ALS), and photosystem II- (PS II) inhibitors, respectively, are commonly used in wheat fields and have a long history of use on A.

var. is a xerophytic weed severely invading rice fields along with the application of rice mechanical direct seeding technology in China. This study identified one resistant population (M5) with an Ile-1781-Leu substitution in showing broad-spectrum resistance to three chemical classes of ACCase-inhibiting herbicides, including metamifop, cyhalofop-butyl, fenoxaprop--ethyl, haloxyfop--methyl, clethodim, sethoxydim, and pinoxaden.

Aquatic ecosystems represent one of the largest reservoirs of phytoplankton accounting for most of the primary production of the Earth. The Lake Massaciuccoli located in Tuscany (Italy) is one of the largest swamps that in ancient times entirely covered the Versilia coastal plain. Despite its peculiar features, especially the eutrophic characteristics, its native microalgal consortia have never been explored up to now.

Certain synthetic herbicides can act synergistically with specific bioherbicides. In this study, a sethoxydim herbicide at 0.1× label rate improved biocontrol of herbicide-sensitive green foxtail (Setaria viridis, GFT) by Pyricularia setariae (a fungal bioherbicide agent), but did not change the efficacy on a herbicide-resistant GFT biotype.
