Cottoning on: Genetically modified cotton plants, like these in Arkansas, are widely used in the US. They carry a gene that makes them resistant to the herbicide glyphosate (Roundup). However, weeds with the resistance trait have now emerged. (Photo: Bill Barksdale/AGStockUSA/Science Photo Library.)

Natural enemy: Experts at the Centre for Agricultural Bioscience International (CABI), have selected the psyllid Aphalara itadori for a biocontrol program targeting the invasive weed, Japanese knotweed, in the UK.
