A Field experiments were conducted for two years at Agricultural Research Station, Bhavanisagar of Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore, India during kharif season of 2010 and 2011 to evaluate the new formulation of oxyfluorfen (23.5% EC) on weed control in onion and their residual effect on succeeding crops. Herbicides are being chemical in nature, excessive and repeated use may pose...

Studies were conducted in the period 2009-2011 in the experimental field of the Institute of Land Reclamation and Agricultural Mechanization – Sofia. The following treatments were used: a1 no herbicides with weeds (C0); a2 herbicide oxyfluorfen (Goal 2 E) at a rate of 250 ml / da; a3 herbicide oxyfluorfen (Goal 2 E) at a rate of 500 ml / da. The experiment was set up using long plots, three ver...

Peroxidative activity of oxyfluorfen and binding of this nitrodiphenyl ether to cell fractions was investigated with the susceptible alga Scenedesmus acutus and the resistant alga Bumilleriopsis filiform is. Although a 10-fold higher concentration of oxyfluorfen was applied to Bumilleriopsis, the lag phase for initiation of peroxidative evolution of short-chain hydrocarbons from fatty acids was...

The persistence of herbicides applied in vineyards has become a concern in recent years due to their wide use. Investigations into the fate of herbicides in a vineyard in the Barossa Valley, South Australia, have been directed towards the dissipation of herbicides in soil and on grapes. Concentrations of the herbicides, norflurazon, oxadiazon, and oxyfluorfen in soil were monitored following th...

The mechanism of action of the p-nitrodiphenyl ether herbicides has remained ambiguous because of conflicting reports in the literature. The diphenyl ether herbicide oxyfluorfen causes a light induced consumption of oxygen which resembles the electron acceptor reaction of paraquat. However, this reaction is not linked to the transport of electrons through photosystem I. This conclusion is based...

Background  Oxyfluorfen, a commercially available pesticide, commonly used for weed control in crop production, has been studied in terms of its toxicity, its carcinogenic properties, and its teratogenicity. We have found no reports, however, of the effects produced by an oxyfluorfen injection to the upper limb. Methods  We present the case of a 40 years old psychiatric patient, who reportedly ...

The present study evaluated the effects of different dosages herbicides Oxyfluorfen and Trifluralin on crop properties of garlic, including plant height, number of cloves per bulbs as well as economical and biological yield of garlic. In this research, a randomized complete block design, with seven treatments and three replications, along with a control sample (weeding and no weed control), was...

Four efficacy and selectivity small plot field trials were carried out in four sunflower hybrids at two localities in Middle Bohemia during 2008 and 2009 with herbicides containing the active ingredients flumioxazin and fluorochloridone. For Chenopodium album, an efficacy of 97% was found after pre-emergent application of fluorochloridone + acetochlor; the efficacy of oxyfluorfen was 88–95%; th...
