Occurrence and Management of PSII-Inhibitor-Resistant Chenopodium album L. in Atlantic Canadian Potato Production
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Potato producers in the Atlantic Canadian provinces of New Brunswick (NB) and Prince Edward Island (PE) rely on the photosystem II-inhibiting herbicide metribuzin for weed management. Recently, potato producers in the region have reported unacceptable common lambsquarters control following an application of metribuzin. Tissue and seed samples were collected from escaped common lambsquarters populations from across the potato producing regions of NB and PE and screened for the Ser264Gly mutation in psbA. Overall, 46% of sampled populations possessed the Ser264Gly mutation across the region. Cross-resistance testing to atrazine, metribuzin and linuron confirmed populations with the Ser264Gly were resistant to triazines and triazinones but remained susceptible to linuron. Dose response analysis determined a moderate level of resistance to metribuzin in common lambsquarters which would not be controlled in producers fields. A field experiment was conducted in Fredericton, NB and Harrington, PE, to determine if currently registered and unregistered products and tank-mixes would control PSII-inhibitor-resistant common lambsquarters in potato. All evaluated products, with the exception of S-metolachlor, provided control equivalent to the weed-free check without compromising potato yield or quality. This study demonstrates that PSII-inhibitor-resistant common lambsquarters are found in Atlantic Canadian potato production systems, but can be controlled with currently registered herbicides and rates with alternative modes of action.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
