Myself, I doubt that the Roundup resistant grass would be the superweed;
instead I think chronic broad-scale use of Roundup would breed, rather
quickly, a horde of Roundup-resistant weeds, just as is happening with Bt
toxin containing GMO corn and the pest insects. It seems so far that the
track record of Roundup resistant crops is poor enough that they might
better be termed "Roundup dependant crops".
