Weeds cause a decrease in the quantity and quality of agricultural production and economic damage to producers. The prolonged use of synthetic pesticides causes problems of environmental pollution, the possible alteration of agricultural products and problems for human health. For this reason, the scientific community's search for products of natural origin, which are biodegradable, safe for human health and can act as valid alternatives to traditional herbicides, is growing.

Department of Medical Biochemistry and Microbiology, Uppsala University, BMC, Box 582, SE-75123 Uppsala, Sweden. Electronic address:

Protein-protein associations are often mediated by an intrinsically disordered protein region interacting with a folded domain in a coupled binding and folding reaction. Classic physical organic chemistry approaches together with structural biology have shed light on mechanistic aspects of such reactions. Further insight into general principles may be obtained by interpreting the results through an evolutionary lens.

Ambrosia trifida is an invasive weed that destroys the local ecological environment, and causes a reduction in population diversity and grassland decline. The evolution of herbicide resistance has also increased the difficulty of managing A. trifida, so interspecific plant competition based on allelopathy has been used as an effective and sustainable ecological alternative.

Affecting of Glyphosate Tolerance and Metabolite Content in Transgenic Overexpressing Gene from .

Plants (Basel)

December 2024

State Key Laboratory for Biology of Plant Diseases and Insect Pests, Institute of Plant Protection, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Beijing 100193, China.

Long-term use of the global non-selective herbicide glyphosate for weed control has caused resistance in weeds. Overproducing of the target of glyphosate 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) is one of the resistance mechanisms in weeds. However, few studies have measured the effects on tolerance levels and metabolite content in model plant species overexpressing from weeds.
