Kochia [Bassia scoparia (L.) A.J. Scott] is an invasive C 4 tumbleweed in the Great Plains of North America, where it impedes crop harvest and causes significant yield losses. Rapid evolution spread glyphosate- acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibitor-resistant kochia western Canada limit herbicide options available for control these biotypes field pea (Pisum sativum L.); one predominant pulse cro...

The kinetics of ecotoxicant transport through the membrane was studied. The ecotoxicants studied were pecticides widely used in agriculture: lontrel (clopyralid), sencor (metribuzin), basagran (bentazon), roundup (glyphosate), kusagard (alloxydim sodium), and sethoxydim, as well as lontrel complexes with cobalt and copper. All compounds considered penetrate through the model phosphatidylcholine...

Agricultural wastewater is a major source of herbicides, which pose environmental and health concerns owing to their substantial use poor elimination rate in conventional treatment plants. White-rot fungi are versatile degrading xenobiotics; however, the key problem encountered with application actual scenarios competition indigenous microorganisms, mainly bacteria. To address this barrier, two...

Smallflower umbrella sedge (Cyperus difformis L.) is an invasive weed, and infestations of C. are increasing in rice (Oryza sativa fields China. Bensulfuron-methyl a widely used sulfonylurea herbicide that inhibits the acetolactate synthase (ALS) enzyme has been recent years for effectively controlling annual weeds Cyperaceae family. In this study, suspected resistant population (BBHY1) was col...

Abstract Water is the primary carrier for herbicide applications. Spray water qualities such as pH, hardness, temperature, or turbidity can influence performance and may need to be amended optimum weed control. quality factors affect activity by reducing solubility, enhancing degradation in spray tank, forming herbicide-salt complexes with mineral cations, thereby absorption, translocation, sub...

Photosystem II Herbicides, Chlorotic Herbicides, Chlorophylls, Carotenoids, Phytochrome, Inhibitors Etioplasts of radish seedlings treated with photosystem II (DCMU, bentazon) and chlorotic herbicides (amitrole, SAN 6706) were tested on their ability to perform the phytochrome mediated chlorophyll and carotenoid biosynthesis. The cytoplasmic influence on the chloroplastic action of herbicides w...
