HRAC GROUP 2 (LEGACY B) RESISTANT CORN GROMWELL
(Buglossoides arvensis (=Lithospermum arvense))

Inhibition of Acetolactate Synthase HRAC Group 2 (Legacy B)

China, Shandong
INTRODUCTION CORN GROMWELL
Corn Gromwell (Buglossoides arvensis (=Lithospermum arvense)) is a dicot weed in the Boraginaceae family.  In China this weed first evolved resistance to Group 2 (Legacy B) herbicides in 2009 and infests Winter wheat.   Group 2 (Legacy B) herbicides are known as Inhibition of Acetolactate Synthase (Inhibition of Acetolactate Synthase ).  Research has shown that these particular biotypes are resistant to tribenuron-methyl and they may be cross-resistant to other Group 2 (Legacy B) herbicides.

The 'Group' letters/numbers that you see throughout this web site refer to the classification of herbicides by their site of action. To see a full list of herbicides and HRAC herbicide classifications click here.
