Photosynthetic Inhibitors control many broadleaf and some grass weeds. In general, these herbicides inhibit photosynthesis by binding to D1 proteins of the photosystem II complex in chloroplast thylakoid membranes.

ACCase Inhibitors are primarily used for postemergence grass control in broadleaf crops. These herbicides are absorbed through the foliage and translocated in the phloem to the growing point, where they inhibit meristematic activity.

The acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibiting herbicides, also called acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS), have a broad spectrum of selectivity and are used at low rates as soil-applied or postemergence treatments in many cropping systems, trees and vines, roadsides, range and pasture, turf, and vegetatio...

Synthetic Auxins and Auxin Transport Inhibitors are generally used for controlling broadleaf weeds in grass crops, pastures, and industry. These herbicides include some of the more effective chemicals for perennial broadleaf weed and brush control.
