Acetolactate synthase
Wild oat (Avena fatua L ) biotypes resistant to acetolactate synthase and acetyl CoA carboxylase inhibitors in Poland
... The mechanism of weed resistance to acetolactate synthase (ALS) is quite well known. Target-site resistance of these herbicides is the most often connected with Pro-197 mutation. As a result of the ...
