First report: spotted knapweed (Centaurea stoebe) resistance to auxinic herbicides
Canadian Journal of Plant Science 96 (6), 928-931
Abstract: Spotted knapweed is a prohibited noxious weed that is primarily controlled with auxinic herbicides. A population collected from a managed rangeland in East Kootenay, BC, was highly resistant to both clopyralid and picloram, with R/S ratios of >25 600 and 28, respectively. This is the first report of resistance in spotted knapweed.
