These herbicides applied as preemergence or postemergence in different cropping systems, landscape and ornamental, industrial use, and aquatic setting. In general, they are active on broadleaf weeds but control selected grasses.
Herbicides in this group prevent cell division primarily in developing root tips and are only effective on some germinating broadleaves and selected grasses.
Glycines (glyphosate) are herbicides that inhibit 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate (EPSP) synthase, a key enzyme in the shikimic acid pathway, which is involved in the synthesis of the aromatic amino acids.
This category contains miscellaneous products for which the mode of action and family are unknown. These herbicides are used in field crops, orchards, aquatic settings, vegetation management, and general pest control.
Protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO) is an enzyme in the chloroplast cell that oxidizes protoporphyrinogen IX (PPGIX) to produce protoporphyrin IX (PPIX). PPIX is important because it is a precursor molecule for both chlorophyll (needed for photosynthesis) and heme (needed for electron transfer chains).
