OverviewAI-generated summary
Nilda R. Burgos, a Professor in Weed Physiology within the Crop, Soil and Environmental Sciences department at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, investigates the physiological and genetic mechanisms underlying herbicide resistance in weeds. Her research group focuses on understanding how weeds develop resistance to herbicides, including the impact of herbicide-resistant crops on this process. Burgos has published extensively on best management practices and recommendations for reducing the risks associated with herbicide resistance.
Her work has explored specific genetic mechanisms, such as EPSPS gene amplification in glyphosate-resistant Italian ryegrass found in Arkansas. Additionally, Burgos has examined the role of metabolism-based herbicide resistance and the regulation by safeners. Her research also extends to broader agricultural challenges, including reviews on cultivars to face climate change effects on crops and weeds, and the development and challenges of Clearfield® rice technology.
Burgos's scholarship metrics include an h-index of 42, with over 200 publications and more than 7,500 citations, designating her as a highly cited researcher. She actively collaborates with colleagues at the University of Arkansas, including Matthew B. Bertucci and Gulab Rangani, with whom she shares multiple publications.
