A Novel P106L Mutation in EPSPS and an Unknown Mechanism(s) Act Additively To Confer Resistance to Glyphosate in a South African Lolium rigidum Population

Abstract: Glyphosate resistance evolution in weeds is a growing problem in world agriculture. Here, we have investigated the mechanism(s) of glyphosate resistance in a Lolium rigidum population (DAG1) from South Africa. Nucleotide sequencing revealed the existence of at least three EPSPS homologues in the L. rigidum genome and identified a novel proline 106 to leucine substitution (P106L) in 52% DAG1 individuals. This mutation conferred a 1.7-fold resistance increase to glyphosate at the whole plant level. Additionally,… Show more

“…Plants that have mutations in the amino acid sequence in EPSPs confer low levels of herbicide resistance, about two to four times (Kaundun et al, 2011), while the resistance to action mechanisms of ACCase, ALS, and photosystem II inhibitors provide levels between 20 and 100 times, compared to the susceptible (Devine & Shukla, 2000).…”

“…The resistance mechanism to glyphosate in other countries' goosegrass involves replacement of a proline by serine or threonine at position 106 in the EPSPS gene (P106S or P106T) (Baerson et al, 2002;Ng et al2004;Yu et al2007;Kaundun et al, 2008Kaundun et al, , 2011, or the EPSPS gene amplification in resistant plants (Chen et al, 2015). Such single mutation confers intermediate levels of glyphosate resistance (RF = 2 to 4).…”

“…The EPSPs partial sequence for resistant and susceptible ryegrass plants analyzed did not show any mutation at Pro 106 ( Table 2) that has been associated with glyphosate resistance reported for the Lolium rigidum Gaudin (Kaundun et al, 2011) and Lolium multiflorum (Perez-Jones et al, 2005) species. However, the results found corroborate with those by Salas et al (2012), which did not observe any mutation on the EPSPs gene on Lolium perenne biotypes.…”

“…When related to the site of action, resistance may be a result of the reduced affinity of the herbicide for the site of action (enzyme), as a result of DNA mutation, or due to the overexpression of this enzyme. Different EPSPs gene mutations have been reported for conferring resistance to glyphosate on Lolium rigidum (Kaundun et al, 2011), Lolium multiflorum (Perez-Jones et al, 2005) and Echinochloa colona (Alarcón-Reverte et al, 2013). When the resistance is not related to the site of action, it may occur due to mechanisms such as reduced absorption, reduced or increased translocation and increased metabolism and compartmentalization (Powles and Yu, 2010).…”
