United States, Michigan
INTRODUCTION COMMON PURSLANE
Common Purslane (Portulaca oleracea) is a dicot weed in the Portulacaceae family.  In Michigan this weed first evolved resistance to Group 5 (Legacy C1 C2) herbicides in 1991 and infests Carrots, and Vegetables.   Group 5 (Legacy C1 C2) herbicides are known as PSII inhibitors - Serine 264 Binders (Inhbition of Photosynthesis at PSll - Serine 264 Binders ).  Research has shown that these particular biotypes are resistant to atrazine, and linuron and they may be cross-resistant to other Group 5 (Legacy C1 C2) 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.

GENERAL

Bernard Zandstra
The resistant common purslane is concentrated at the end of the rows where linuron would be concentrated by boom overlap and final passes. This biotype is immune to atrazine with no reaction to over 200 kg/ha.

ACADEMIC ASPECTS

Confirmation Tests

Field, and Greenhouse trials comparing a known susceptible Common Purslane biotype with this Common Purslane 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 5 resistant Common Purslane have not been reported to the site.  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

The mechanism of resistance for this biotype is either unknown or has not been entered in the database.  If you know anything about the mechanism of resistance for this biotype then please update the database.
 
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 5 (Legacy C1 C2) resistant Common Purslane from Michigan please update the database.
