The first resistance to HPPD, also known as Group H, herbicides in wild radish has now been discovered by AHRI researchers led by PhD candidate Huan Lu. Wild radish is just the third weed in the world to evolve resistance to this group of herbicides. In this podcast, we caught up with Huan to learn more about the results published in his paper “Evolution of resistance to HPPD-inhibiting herbicides in a wild radish population via enhanced herbicide metabolism”. You can read the AHRI insight and find the link to the paper here: https://ahri.uwa.edu.au/group-h-hppd-resistant-wild-radish/
