COMMON COCKLEBUR (Xanthium strumarium) with GROUP B/2 resistance: (INHIBITION OF ACETOLACTATE SYNTHASE ) Inhibition of Acetolactate Synthase
MUTATION: ALANINE 205 to VALINE
Common cocklebur (Xanthium strumarium) is a dicot plant in the asteraceae family. A single amino acid substitution from Alanine 205 to Valine has led to resistance to Inhibition of Acetolactate Synthase as indicated in the table below.		Common cocklebur

Chemical Family	Example Herbicide	Resistance Level
Imidazolinones	Imazethapyr	Intermediate Resistance < 10 fold
Pyrimidinyl benzoates	Bispyribac-Na	Intermediate Resistance < 10 fold
Sulfonylureas	Chlorsulfuron	Intermediate Resistance < 10 fold
Triazolopyrimidine - Type 1	Chloransulam-methyl	Intermediate Resistance < 10 fold
Triazolinones	Flucarbazone-Na	Not Determined
