Abstract
AbstractJunglerice has become a major weed in Tennessee cotton and soybean fields. Glyphosate has been relied on to control these accessions over the past two decades, but in recent years cotton and soybean producers have reported junglerice escapes after glyphosate + dicamba and/or clethodim applications. In the growing seasons of 2018 and 2019, a survey was conducted of weed escapes in dicamba-resistant (DR) crops. Junglerice was the most prevalent weed escape in these DR (Roundup Ready Xtend®) cotton and soybean fields in both years of the study. In 2018 and 2019, junglerice was found 76% and 64% of the time in DR cotton and soybean fields, respectively. Progeny from junglerice seeds collected during this survey was screened for glyphosate and clethodim resistance. Seventy percent of the junglerice accessions tested had an effective relative resistance factor to glyphosate of 3.1 to 8.5. In all, 13% of the junglerice accessions could no longer be effectively controlled with glyphosate. This research also showed that all sampled accessions could still be controlled with clethodim in a greenhouse environment, but less control was observed in the field. These data also suggest that another cause for the poor junglerice control is dicamba antagonism of glyphosate and clethodim activity.

In Tennessee and other states in the midsouthern United States, junglerice and Palmer amaranth
Dicamba antagonism of glyphosate for grass control has been previously documented (Flint and Barrett 1989; Harre et al 2020; O’Sullivan and O’Donovan 1980) and could be the reason for junglerice escapes in Tennessee cotton and soybean crops
The locations for seed collection were identified by visually observing junglerice presence in the field where known dicamba þ glyphosate herbicide applications were made and control failures were evident
