| Sumario: | The amount and quality of yields depend on the successful protection of crops from diseases, pests, weeds, and abiotic factors. The sunflower is a plant in which most diseases and pests are overcome genetically. The chemical method is also used in the production of sunflower, but it is important to say that there are still no genetically modified (GM) sunflowers on the market. By applying the classical breeding methods, new sunflower elite inbreed B lines that are resistant to two classes of herbicides (imidazolinones and sulfonylureas) were received. The aim of this study is to summarize the knowledge of pesticides and their use, as well as the breeding methods and resistance to herbicides in the sunflower. |
