The currently dom<strong>in</strong>ant weed species can be expected to cont<strong>in</strong>ue as major weeds<br />

<strong>in</strong> Korean <strong>rice</strong>fields, with vary<strong>in</strong>g degrees of dom<strong>in</strong>ance, for at least the next 10-20 yr,<br />

if current control methods cont<strong>in</strong>ue to be used.<br />

WEED RESISTANCE TO HERBICIDE<br />

Herbicide resistance is the <strong>in</strong>herited ability of a weed io escape control by a herbicide<br />

(Gressel 1993). Resistance is relative; one important modifier is the rate of herbicide<br />

applied. Resistance to normal agricultural levels of herbicide application is assumed<br />

here. Resistance evolves <strong>in</strong> one of the follow<strong>in</strong>g ways:<br />
