OverviewAI-generated summary

Fidel González‐Torralva's research focuses on understanding the physiological, biochemical, and molecular mechanisms that drive herbicide resistance in agricultural weeds. His work employs a multidisciplinary approach, integrating genomics and biochemistry to identify both target-site and non-target-site resistance mechanisms, including metabolic detoxification by cytochrome P450s and GSTs. González‐Torralva also investigates herbicide absorption and translocation using radiolabeled compounds to elucidate the physiological basis of resistance. This research aims to bridge basic plant science with sustainable agricultural practices, providing essential data for integrated weed management strategies in major crops.
