Herbicide resistance is the evolutionary response of weeds to the selection pressure caused by repeated application of the same active ingredient. It can result from two different mechanisms, known as target site resistance (TSR) and non-target site resistance (NTSR). In addition to single-herbicide resistance, multiple resistance can occur due to herbicides selection or accumulation of resistance genes by cross-pollination. The aim of this research was to investigate the suspect of multiple herbicide resistance of Sumatran Fleabane (Conyza sumatrensis (Retz.) E.Walker) to herbicides frequently used as a burndown application. Dose-responses in a whole-plant assay were carried out to investigate multiple-resistance of Sumatran fleabane to paraquat, saflufenacil, diuron, 2,4-D and glyphosate. Results indicated that the resistance index (ratio R/S) based on herbicide rate to cause 50% mortality (LD 50 ) were 25.51, 1.39, 7.29, 1.84 and 7.55 for paraquat, saflufenacil, diuron, 2,4-D and glyphosate, respectively. Based on herbicide rate required to cause a 50% reduction in plant growth (GR 50 ), the resistant index were 51.83, 14.10, 5.05, 3.96 and 32.90 for the same herbicides, respectively. Our results confirmed multiple resistance of Conyza sumatrensis from Paraná-Brazil to herbicides from five-mode of-action. This was the first report of Conyza sumatrensis resistant to 2,4-D and the first case of Conyza sumatrensis presenting multiple resistant to herbicides from fivemode of-action in the world.

Sourgrass (Digitaria insularis L.) and fleabane (Conyza spp. L.) constitute a major challenge to weed management in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] production systems in Brazil, especially when both are resistant to glyphosate and present concurrently. The aim of this study was to evaluate the interaction of haloxyfop-P-methyl [methyl(R)-2{4-{3-chloro-5(trifluoromethyl)-2-pyridyloxy] phenoxy} propanoate] and 2,4-D [2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid-N-methylmethanamine] to control sourgrass at three to four tillers and flowering stages and 12-to 15-cm fleabane at vegetative stage. The experiments were arranged in a randomized complete block design with four replicates and were conducted twice. Treatments were composed of haloxyfop-P-methyl and 2,4-D applied sequentially at 3-, 6-, and 12-d intervals.Treatments also included an untreated check, haloxyfop-P-methyl, and 2,4-D sequentially (without interval) and stand-alone applications of both herbicides. All treatments across experiments completely controlled fleabane plants, except haloxyfop-P-methyl alone. Haloxyfop-P-methyl applied ≥6 d before 2,4-D controlled flowering and three-to four-tiller sourgrass plants at rates of 50 and 100%, respectively. Based on results of this study, haloxyfop-P-methyl should be applied ≥6 d before 2,4-D in a sequential application structure to control fleabane and sourgrass (three or four tillers) when present concurrently.
