contents The role of interspecific variability and herbicide pre‐adaptation in the cinmethylin response of Alopecurus myosuroides David Comont Laura Crook Richard Hull Bernd Sievernich Stuart Kevis Paul Neve Pest Management Science AbstractBACKGROUNDCinmethylin is an inhibitor of plant fatty acid biosynthesis, with in‐plant activity caused by its binding to fatty acid thioesterases (FATs). The recent registration of cinmethylin for pre‐emergence herbicidal use in the UK represents a new mode‐of‐action (MOA) for control of the grassweed blackgrass (Alopecurus myosuroides). To date there is little published information on the extent of blackgrass' inter‐population variability in sensitivity to cinmethylin, nor on any potential effect of existing non‐target‐site resistance (NTSR) mechanisms on cinmethylin efficacy.RESULTSHere we present a study of variability in cinmethylin sensitivity amongst 97 UK blackgrass populations. We demonstrate that under controlled conditions, a UK field‐rate dose of 500 g ha−1 provides effective control of the tested populations. Nevertheless, we reveal significant inter‐population variability at doses below this rate, with populations previously characterised as strongly NTSR displaying the lowest sensitivity to cinmethylin. Assessment of paired resistant ‘R’ and sensitive ‘S’ lines from standardised genetic backgrounds confirms that selection for NTSR to the acetyl‐CoA‐carboxylase inhibitor fenoxaprop, and the microtubule assembly inhibitor pendimethalin, simultaneously results in reduced sensitivity to cinmethylin at doses below 500 g ha−1. Whilst we find no resistance to the field‐rate dose, we reveal that cinmethylin sensitivity can be further reduced through experimental selection with cinmethylin.CONCLUSIONCinmethylin therefore represents a much‐needed further MOA for blackgrass control, but needs to be carefully managed within a resistance monitoring and integrated weed management (IWM) framework to maximise the effective longevity of this compound. © 2024 The Authors.
