10.Applications:
1) Cyhalofop-butyl
Biochemistry: Fatty acidsynthesis inhibitor, by inhibition of acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACCase).Selectivity between grasses and broad-leaves is attributed to the form(s) ofACCase present and the compartmentalisation of these forms within plant cell
Modeof Action: Selective post-emergence herbicide obsorbed mainly by foliage andtranslocates to the stem and roots of grasses.
Uses: For post-emergencecontrol of grass weeds in rice.
2) Ethoxysulfuron.
Biochemistry: Branched chain amino acid synthesis (ALS or AHAS) inhibitor. Acts byinhibiting biosynthesis othe essential amino acids valine and isoleucine,hence stopping cell division and plant growth. Selectivity is Due to differential metabolism in crop and weed (H Koeher & G Dickerhof, Proc. Br.Crop Prot. Conf. -Weeds, 1995, 1, 249). Metabolic basis of crop selectivity insulfonylureas reviewed (M. K. Koeppe & H. M. Brown, Agro-Food-Industry, 6,9-14 (1995)).
Uses: For broad-leave
Mixing and dilution:Sprayimmediately after mixing
Target weed and rate:
Crop | weed | Rate | Method of Application |
Direct-seeded rice | Annual grass weeds and broad-leaved weeds | 400-600ml/ha. | Water dilution and foliar spray |
Transplanted rice | Annual grass weeds and broad-leaved weeds | 400-600ml/ha. | Water dilution and foliar spray |
Note:
1) In direct-seededrice, apply the product 10-15 days after seeding during 2-4 leaf stage of rice,or 1.5-2.5 leaf stage of weeds.3) When this product isused to control the large grass weeds, use it at high rate.
