Abstract
► The paper deals with ACCase herbicide resistance in Phalaris paradoxa in Italy. Very few papers worldwide, and none from Europe, deals with herbicide resistance in this species, including resistance to the recent herbicide pinoxaden. ► Two single point-mutations have been identified: Ile1781Val and Asp2078Gly. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a mutation at position 1781 for P. paradoxa and the first time the above substitution at position 1781 has been reported in any weed species. ► We also observed that the new substitution Ile1781Val induces lower resistance levels to ACCase-inhibitors than the commonly found Ile-1781-Leu. ► ACCase resistance evolution and management in Mediterranean conditions are discussed.
