Understanding P450s to better manage resistance

Webinar 1: Understanding P450s to better manage resistance

In Part 1 of this webinar series, we look at P450s and understanding how plants evolve resistance to a herbicide that has not yet been used. Colorado State University researcher, Todd Gaines and AHRI’s Roberto Busi are the presenters of this webinar.

Host Peter Newman asks the presenters what the genetic basis of metabolic resistance is.

So, can we control metabolic resistant weeds? Todd explains the science and gives us the answers.

Roberto Busi outlines new results on the interactions between an insecticide and current pre-emergent herbicides to control ryegrass.

Webinar 2: Resistance in corn, soybean & cotton

Part 2 of our Webinar Series: America and Australia share expertise to fight resistance, looks at resistance in corn, soybean and cotton. It features special guest US Professor Jason Norsworthy.

Peter Newman asks Jason if the US is thinking about alternatives to glyphosate. Given their high dependence on RR crops, what are the repercussions of this strategy?

Jason is evangelical in his quest to keep glyphosate working for corn, soybean and corn, soybean and cotton crops. What are the challenges and the strategies being used to address creeping resistance?
