HRAC GROUP 1 (LEGACY A) RESISTANT KENG STIFFGRASS
(Sclerochloa kengiana)

Inhibition of Acetyl CoA Carboxylase HRAC Group 1 (Legacy A)

China, Jiangsu and Shandong Province
INTRODUCTION KENG STIFFGRASS
Keng Stiffgrass (Sclerochloa kengiana) is a monocot weed in the Poaceae family.  In China this weed first evolved resistance to Group 1 (Legacy A) herbicides in 2010 and infests Winter 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 clodinafop-propargyl, and 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. To see a full list of herbicides and HRAC herbicide classifications click here.

ACADEMIC ASPECTS

Confirmation Tests

Field, Greenhouse, and Laboratory trials comparing a known susceptible Keng Stiffgrass biotype with this Keng Stiffgrass biotype have been used to confirm resistance. For further information on the tests conducted please contact the local weed scientists that provided this information.
 
Genetics

Genetic studies on HRAC Group 1 resistant Keng Stiffgrass indicate that the inheritance is determined by a one gene, dominant trait.  There may be a note below or an article discussing the genetics of this biotype in the Fact Sheets and Other Literature
 
Mechanism of Resistance

Studies on the mechanism of resistance of Group 1 (Legacy A) resistant Keng Stiffgrass from China indicate that resistance is due to an altered target site.  There may be a note below or an article discussing the mechanism of resistance in the Fact Sheets and Other Literature
 
Relative Fitness

There is no record of differences in fitness or competitiveness of these resistant biotypes when compared to that of normal susceptible biotypes.  If you have any information pertaining to the fitness of Group 1 (Legacy A) resistant Keng Stiffgrass from China please update the database.
