1. A method of screening a population of plants for resistance to acetyl-CoA carboxylase inhibiting herbicides comprising:
a) applying one or more acetyl-CoA carboxylase inhibiting herbicides to the population of plants;
b) obtaining a nucleic acid sample from a plant of the population that is resistant to the acetyl-CoA carboxylase inhibiting herbicide; and
