Herbicide Resistance: Mechanisms, Evolution, and Integrated Management
Received Date: Nov 03, 2025 / Published Date: Nov 28, 2025
Abstract
Herbicide resistance in weeds poses a significant threat to global crop production, driven by genetic and molecular mechanisms like target-site mutations and enhanced metabolism. Selective herbicide use accelerates resistance evolution, leading to yield losses and increased management costs. Integrated strategies, including herbicide mixtures, rotations, and non-chemical methods, are crucial for management. Understanding genetic bases, such as EPSPS gene mutations for glyphosate resistance, and dispersal pathways is vital. Biochemical mechanisms and predictive modeling are key to developing durable resistance management strategies.
