Triple-resistant kochia [Kochia scoparia (L.) Schrad.] in Alberta

A randomized stratified survey was conducted in Alberta in 2017 to determine the distribution and abundance of multiple-resistant [acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibitor, glycine, and synthetic auxin] kochia. All populations were ALS inhibitor resistant, with glyphosate and dicamba resistance confirmed in 50% and 18% of populations, respectively. Ten percent of populations exhibited resistance to all three mode-of-action herbicides.
