Kansas State University Researchers Make Breakthrough in Glyphosate Resistance in Pigweeds

Caption

Kansas State University researchers have discovered the mechanism by which weeds develop resistance to glyphosate, an herbicide. Their work could lead to improved weed control strategies and improved production in farm fields and other areas where weeds affect plants and crops.
