Herbicide Resistance: Mechanisms, Inheritance, and Molecular Genetics

This lesson will detail the biochemical mechanisms and genetics of herbicide resistance in weeds. Herbicide resistance is one of the major issues in weed science today; therefore, it is important to h

Overall Picture of Auxinic Herbicide Action This animation summarizes how auxin and auxinic herbicides may turn on certain genes and how those gene products may alter plant growth. 

Allergic response This animation shows the process the human body goes through when exposed to allergens. 

Accion Enzimatica Esta animación es sobre la actividad de la EPSP sintasa. 

Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) This animation depicts the process of PCR. Each component involved in the process is outlined and described in this animation. 

Competencia Herbicida-Substrato Esta animación es sobre la naturaleza competitiva del glifosato. 

ECB Lifecycle This animation goes through the life cycle of the European corn borer and how Bt affects the insect.  

Herbicide Uptake by Roots This animation shows how herbicides are taken up by roots and illustrates the path the herbicide takes across the root to reach the vascular system of the plant. 

Monogastric digestion This animation shows the digestion process of swine and poultry and outlines the components of each digestive tract. 

Herbicide Uptake by Leaves and Cells This animation describes how herbicides are taken up by leaves and illustrates how physico-chemical characteristics alter their movement across cuticles. Passive and active mechanisms of herbicide absorption across plant membranes into cells are shown as well. 

El Proceso de Ingenieria Genetica Vegetal Esta animación combina nuestras 6 animaciones que explican las 5 etapas básicas del proceso de ingeniería genética vegetal. Una animación descriptiva enlista todas las etapas del proceso; luego, cada una de las etapas es descrita a detalle en animaciones por separado, ligadas a la pagina principal.  

Sub-Soil Contact This animation shows how plants uptake herbicides from the soil.  

Refuge Designs with YieldGard Rootworm Corn This animation discusses the importance of Insect Resistance Management (IRM) and illustrates different field refuge designs.  

Herbicide Resistance Illustrates how selection for herbicide resistance occurs. 

Flower Parts This animation illustrates the botanical parts of flower structures. 

Asteraceae Flowers This animation describes and illustrates the different types of flowers found in the family Asteraceae. 

Taqman The Taqman probe detection system used in real time PCR (also known as quantitative PCR) is illustrated in this animation. One application of this method is use in GMO detection. 

Terminator The "Terminator" technology is designed to make biotechnology-derived plants produce non-viable seeds. This animation depicts how one type of Terminator system works in cotton. 

Flower structures, Plant Breeding, Cross Pollination, Making Crosses This animations illustrates the structures of a flower, plant breeding, cross pollination and making crosses. 

Lateral Flow Strip Test This animation illustrates the concepts of protein detection using the lateral flow strip method. This method is simliar to ELISA and is utilized in detecting GMOs, among other applications. 

Saltation This animation demonstrates saltation, surface creep, and suspension of soil particles during wind erosion. 

Transpiration This animation details how water moves through plants and how various factors affect this movement. 

Syringing This video clip discusses the technique of syringing for water management in turf grasses. 

Phosphorus in Surface Waters This animation demonstrates the four forms that phosphorus (P) can take in surface water, and how the equilibrium between the forms can be upset and then rebalanced. 

Cereal Quality

An animation about cereal grain and how how to measure cereal grain quality.
