New technologies are becoming available for managing glyphosateresistant (GR) weeds and reducing their spread. GR crop technologyhas revolutionized crop production in the developed world and thebenefits are gradually spilling over to the developing world. Inorder to sustain an effective, environmentally safe herbicide suchas glyphosate and the GR crop technology well in to the future, itis imperative that the issue of GR weeds be comprehensivelyunderstood. This book provides such an essential, up-to-date sourceof information on glyphosate resistance for researchers, extensionworkers, land managers, government personnel, and other decisionmakers.
* Provides comprehensive coverage of the intensely studied topicof glyphosate resistant (GR) in crops
* Details the development of glyphosate resistance and how todetect and manage the problem in crops
* Helps standardize global approaches to glyphosateresistance
* Encompasses interdisciplinary approaches in chemistry, weedscience, biochemistry, plant physiology, plant biotechnology,genetics, ecology
* Includes a chapter on economic analysis of GR impact oncrops
