Abstract	Summary: Extensive use of the preemergence herbicide triallate over the last three decades has selected for resistant (R) Avena fatua L. populations in several areas of the United States and Canada. R plants are also cross-resistant to the unrelated pyrazolium herbicide difenzoquat. We made reciprocal crosses between inbred R and susceptible (S) lines to determine the genetic basis of triallate resistance. Seeds from parental lines and F2 populations were treated with soil applications of 0.275, 0.55, or 1.1 kg/ha triallate in the greenhouse and plant heights recorded after 37 days. Surviving F2 plants were selfed and the resulting F3 families were screened with 1.1 kg/ha triallate. In the F2 populations, assortment of S and R phenotypes fit a 15:1 segregation ratio, suggesting that resistance was controlled by the two independently segregating recessive genes TRR1 and TRR2. None of the 912 F3 progeny from 51 R F2 individuals was susceptible to triallate treatment, further supporting a two-gene mode of inheritance. There was a possible maternal effect on susceptibility at the highest triallate rate tested
