INTRODUCTION LIMNOPHILA (ASIAN MARSHWEED) Limnophila (Asian marshweed) (Limnophila sessiliflora) is a dicot weed in the Scrophulariaceae family.  In Japan this weed first evolved resistance to Group 2 (Legacy B) herbicides in 1996 and infests Rice.   Group 2 (Legacy B) herbicides are known as Inhibition of Acetolactate Synthase (Inhibition of Acetolactate Synthase ).  Research has shown that these particular biotypes are resistant to bensulfuron-methyl, ethoxysulfuron, imazosulfuron, and pyrazosulfuron-ethyl and they may be cross-resistant to other Group 2 (Legacy B) herbicides. The 'Group' letters/numbers that you see throughout this web site refer to the classification of herbicides by their site of action.

We cloned and sequenced fragments encoding ALS genes from biotypes of L. sessiliflora susceptible and resistant to sulfonylurea (SU)-herbicide. Comparisons of deduced amino acid sequences and secondary protein structures were conducted. Pro was substituted with Gln, and a G-X-X-P motif was abolished in Domain A of resistant ALS, and the secondary protein structure was converted from extended strands to an α-helix around Domain A by the Pro mutation. We suggest that resistance to SU-herbicides is caused by the mutation of ALS and conformational change of its secondary structure..

This review considers the most important weeds showing resistance to sulfonylurea herbicides in Japan: Monochoria korsakowii, M. vaginalis var. plantaginea, Lindernia spp., Limnophila sessiliflora, Elatine triandra var. pedicellata, Scirpus juncoides var. ohwianus, Rotala indica var. uliginosa and Chenopodium album. The distribution and spread of these resistant weeds in Japan and their control are discussed..
