The extensive reliance on acetyl coen- zyme A carboxylase （ACCase）-inhibiting herbicides has resulted in keng stiffgrass developing resistance to these herbicides. The objective of this research was to evaluate the resistance level of the putative resistant keng stiffgrass populations to ACCase-inhibiting herbicides and to identify their molecular resistance mechanism. Whole-plant dose-response experi- ments demonstrated that SD-4 （R）, SD-11 （R）, and JS-25 （R） populations were highly resistant to fenoxaprop, clodinafop, and fluazifop, moderately resistant to diclofop, had low resistance to sethoxydim and pinoxaden, but were sensitive to clethodim. Partial chloroplasticACCase sequences showed that there were two copies ofACCase gene in keng stiffgrass, and all homoeologous genes were expressed. The results of sequence analyses of the ACCase CT domain revealed an isoleucine-to-asparagine substitution at position 2041 in SD-4 （R） and SD-11 （R） populations, and a tryptophan-to-cysteine substitution at position 2027 in the JS-25 （R） population. To our knowledge, this is the first report of Ile-2041-Asn and Trp- 2027-Cys mutations in ACCase-resistant keng stiffgrass.
