INTRODUCTION COMMON RAGWEED
Common Ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia) is a dicot weed in the Asteraceae family.  In Maryland this weed first evolved multiple resistance (to 3 herbicide sites of action) in 2016 and infests Soybean.  Multiple resistance has evolved to herbicides in the Groups 2 (Legacy B), Inhibition of Protoporphyrinogen Oxidase HRAC Group 14 (Legacy E), and Inhibition of Enolpyruvyl Shikimate Phosphate Synthase HRAC Group 9 (Legacy G).  These particular biotypes are known to have resistance to cloransulam-methyl, fomesafen, and glyphosate and they may be cross-resistant to other herbicides in the Groups 2 (Legacy B), Inhibition of Protoporphyrinogen Oxidase HRAC Group 14 (Legacy E), and Inhibition of Enolpyruvyl Shikimate Phosphate Synthase HRAC Group 9 (Legacy G).

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.

ACADEMIC ASPECTS

Confirmation Tests

Greenhouse, and Laboratory trials comparing a known susceptible Common Ragweed biotype with this Common Ragweed biotype have been used to confirm resistance. For further information on the tests conducted please contact the local weed scientists that provided this information.
 
Genetics

Genetic studies on HRAC Group 2, 14, 9 resistant Common Ragweed have not been reported to the site.  There may be a note below or an article discussing the genetics of this biotype in the Fact Sheets and Other Literature
 
Mechanism of Resistance

The mechanism of resistance for this biotype is either unknown or has not been entered in the database.  If you know anything about the mechanism of resistance for this biotype then please update the database.
 
Relative Fitness

There is no record of differences in fitness or competitiveness of these resistant biotypes when compared to that of normal susceptible biotypes.  If you have any information pertaining to the fitness of multiple resistant Common Ragweed from Maryland please update the database.
