Herbicides when applied at the correct stage and dose are highly toxic to plants. Herbicide-susceptible weed populations are completely controlled at the recommended herbicide label dose. However, there is continuous variation in plant survival and growth in response to herbicide low doses (below-label) because specific plant traits can confer some low level resistance. Recurrent (directional) selection studies can reveal whether such a phenotypic variation in response to a herbicide low dose is heritable and can lead to herbicide resistance. Recurrent selection studies with allogamous cross-pollinated Lolium rigidum plants surviving at a low herbicide dose showed rapid evolution of herbicide resistance in three generations by progressive enrichment of minor herbicide resistance traits. In a common experimental garden study, we have subjected to low-dose recurrent selection a susceptible population of autogamous self-pollinated Avena fatua with the ACCase-inhibiting herbicide diclofop-methyl or the EPSPS-inhibiting glyphosate. Significant differences in response to selection between the selected progenies and parents were evident in the lines selected by low-dose diclofop-methyl, whereas glyphosate selection did not results in significant shifts. A two-fold diclofop resistance was quantified by comparison of estimated LD50 values and a significant increase in survival to ALS-inhibiting herbicides suggests cross-resistance. Importantly, the capacity of A. fatua to respond to low-dose herbicide selection is marginal and much lower than in L. rigidum. The dynamics of selection and the factors driving the evolution of resistance to herbicides in plants are discussed with particular emphasis on the implications of low-dose herbicide use weed management of autogamous self-pollinated vs allogamous cross ...
