INTRODUCTION		HARE'S FOOT PLANTAIN
Hare's Foot Plantain (Plantago lagopus) is a dicot weed in the Plantaginaceae family. In Israel this weed first evolved resistance to Group 5 (Legacy C1 C2) herbicides in 1992 and infests Orchards, and Roadsides. 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 simazine 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.

Lior, E. ; Sibony, M. ; Kigel, J. ; Rubin, B.. 2000. Polymorphism in the resistance of Plantago lagopus to herbicides. Weed Research (Oxford) 40 : 457 - 466.

Seeds from populations of Plantago lagopus were collected from six sites in Israel with different histories of previous herbicide use. Tlamim (T) and Bilu (B) had been treated previously with simazine and bromacil; Naan (N) with sulfometuron and diuron; Dvir (D) with diuron; and Givat Brenner (G) and Rehovot (F) were populations collected in non-cultivated fields that had no history of previous herbicide use. Based on whole-plant response to post-emergence herbicide sprays, isolated chloroplasts and fluorescence studies with excised leaves, it was evident that the T and B populations were triazine-resistant. The D population was the most resistant to diuron, G was the most sensitive, whereas B and N populations were intermediate. The N population was the only one that exhibited resistance to ALS inhibitors both at the whole plant and enzyme level. These data demonstrate the polymorphic nature of P. lagopus showing that resistance to different herbicides has evolved according to the selection pressure imposed by repeated herbicide applications..
