aLD50 and LD90 were determined by conducting Probit analysis in SAS.
bR/S ratio was calculated by dividing the LD50 and LD90 dose of resistant population by the LD50 and LD90 dose, respectively, of susceptible population.
cAll imazamox and penoxsulam treatments contained a nonionic surfactant at 0.25% v/v.
dBispyribac-sodium treatments contained a nonionic spray adjuvant and deposition aid at 2.5% v/v.
