Abstract
Imazethapyr-resistant biotypes of Palmer amaranth and common waterhemp were studied to determine the magnitude of resistance and cross-resistance to three acetolactate synthase (ALS)-inhibiting herbicides. Resistant biotypes of Palmer amaranth and common waterhemp demonstrated > 2,800- and > 130-fold resistance to phytotoxicity of imazethapyr compared to susceptible biotypes, respectively. Concentrations of imazethapyr required for 50% in vivo inhibition of ALS activity were at least > 13,100 and > 1,900 times greater for resistant biotypes of Palmer amaranth and common waterhemp, respectively, compared to susceptible plants. Resistant biotypes of both species demonstrated cross-resistance to the sulfonylurea herbicides thifensulfuron and chlorimuron at the whole plant and enzyme levels, indicating that a less sensitive ALS enzyme confers this resistance to these plants.
