INTRODUCTION ETHIOPIAN GRASS Ethiopian grass (Snowdenia polystachya) is a monocot weed in the Poaceae family.  In Ethiopia this weed first evolved resistance to Group 1 (Legacy A) herbicides in 1998 and infests Wheat.   Group 1 (Legacy A) herbicides are known as Inhibition of Acetyl CoA Carboxylase (Inhibition of Acetyl CoA Carboxylase ).  Research has shown that these particular biotypes are resistant to fenoxaprop-ethyl and they may be cross-resistant to other Group 1 (Legacy A) herbicides. The 'Group' letters/numbers that you see throughout this web site refer to the classification of herbicides by their site of action.
