  Author(s): Prinsa*, Hem C. Joshi, Babita Joshi and S.K. Guru
  
  Phalaris minor Retz. is a major weed of wheat crop across many continents. It is highly competitive in nature and mimics the wheat morphology. Consideration is given to the eradication of isoproturon resistance Phalaris minor and management approaches designated to minimize the impact of resistance. For management of isoproturon-resistant Phalaris minor in wheat crop in the tarai region by alternate herbicides, a field experiment was carried out during the winter season of 2016-17 and 2017-18. The broadcasting of isoproturon resistant Phalaris minor seeds was done before sowing of wheat in field. Treatments included (T1) Pendimethalin @ 750 g a.i./ha, (T2) Pendimethalin+Metribuzin @ 750+210 g a.i./ha, (T3) Pendimethalin+Metribuzin fb mesosulfuron+Idosulfuron (RM) @ 750+210 fb 12+2.4 g a.i./ha, (T4) Pendimethalin+Metribuzin fb ‘Clodinafop+Metsulfuron-methyl’(RM) @ 750+210 f..
