HRAC GROUP 1 (LEGACY A) RESISTANT AMAZON SPRANGLETOP
(Leptochloa panicoides)

Inhibition of Acetyl CoA Carboxylase HRAC Group 1 (Legacy A)

United States, Louisiana
INTRODUCTION AMAZON SPRANGLETOP
Amazon Sprangletop (Leptochloa panicoides) is a monocot weed in the Poaceae family.  In Louisiana this weed first evolved resistance to Group 1 (Legacy A) herbicides in 2009 and infests Rice.   Group 1 (Legacy A) herbicides are known as Inhibition of Acetyl CoA Carboxylase (Inhibition of Acetyl CoA Carboxylase ).  Research has shown that these particular biotypes are resistant to cyhalofop-butyl, and fenoxaprop-ethyl and they may be cross-resistant to other Group 1 (Legacy A) herbicides.

The 'Group' letters/numbers that you see throughout this web site refer to the classification of herbicides by their site of action. To see a full list of herbicides and HRAC herbicide classifications click here.
