Abstract:Amaranthus retroflexus L. (redroot pigweed) is one of the most problematic weeds in maize, sugar beet, vegetables, and soybean crop fields in Europe. Two pigweed amaranth biotypes (R1 and R2) from the Czech Republic resistant to photosystem II (PSII)-inhibiting herbicides were analyzed in this study. This study aimed to identify the genetic mechanisms that underlie the resistance observed in the biotypes. Additionally, we also intended to establish the use of chlorophyll fluorescence measurement as a rapid and… Show more
