Fitness costs and benefits of novel herbicide tolerance in a noxious weed. Baucom, R., S. & Mauricio, R. PNAS, 101(36):13386-13390, 2004. abstract bibtex Glyphosate, the active ingredient in the herbicide RoundUp, has increased dramatically in use over the past decade and constitutes a potent anthropogenic source of selection. In the southeastern United States, weedy morning glories have begun to develop tolerance to glyphosate, representing a unique opportunity to examine the evolutionary genetics of a novel trait. We found genetic variation for tolerance, indicating the potential for the population to respond to selection by glyphosate. However, the following significant evolutionary constraint exists: in the absence of glyphosate, tolerant genotypes produced fewer seeds than susceptible genotypes. The combination of strong positive directional selection in the presence of glyphosate and strong negative directional selection in its absence may indicate that the selective landscape of land use could drive the evolutionary trajectory of glyphosate tolerance. Understanding these evolutionary forces is imperative for devising comprehensive management strategies to help slow the rate of the evolution of tolerance.
