Abstract
The authors briefly describe the discovery and structure of glutathione S -transferases (GST), and how these enzymes are involved in herbicide metabolism. GSTs contribute to both herbicide selectivity in crops and herbicide resistance in weeds. This review highlights examples from research on selected crops and weeds demonstrating how these enzymes can have both positive and negative impacts on the efficacy of herbicides.
期刊介绍:
Research and development in the crop protection and crop enhancement sector continues to grow at pace. Those associated with the agriculture and food industries, researchers in academia, government organisations, legislators, and professionals involved with the development and environmental impact of pesticides and biotechnology can all benefit from Outlooks on Pest Management. This bi-monthly journal provides a unique blend of international news and reviews covering all aspects of the management of weeds, pests and diseases through chemistry, biology and biotechnology.
