Summary
Global rice production, so far, has been able to meet population demands. Rice production is considerable exposed to the environment and natural detrimental affect especially weed and weedy rice problems. Present herbicides are often suffered to kill weed and weedy rice that allows for more chemical usage and non-sustainable rice production system. Weed and weedy rice are a great problem because of resistancy and cultivation system such as direct seeded area, especially in Europe. In order to control the problem, Clearfield and Provisia technology developed in the United States. But some weed species or weed varieties are getting resistant to Clearfield rice in Europe in the last years. Thus, new alternative tools are needed for weed control.
The main aim of the project is develop to non-GMO herbicide resistant new base rice for European countries. Herbicide resistant new base rice might be utilized control weed and weedy rice where gained resistance against to conventional rice herbicides in the fields. Project will investigate to develop non-GMO resistancy with Clethodim (Cyclohexanedione-Dim Group) herbicide resistance for rice. For this reason first objective is execute a mutation on rice seeds, second is develop to low and high resistancy on rice plant, the next objective is determination of mutation point on mutagen resistant rice. Last objective is investigated to deterioration of currently utilized herbicide resistancy system on especially the basis of IMI
resistant red rice at incoming phase.
The new resistancy system might be available to use when Clearfield and Provisia technology break down because of gene flow and misusage. The HerbaRice project will give new insights on weed and weedy rice problem on rice fields, providing new tools for herbicide resistancy producing safer and sustainable food production.
