APPLICATIONS
quizalofop-P-ethyl
Biochemistry Acetyl CoA carboxylase inhibitor; inhibition of fatty acid biosynthesis. Mode of action Systemic herbicide, absorbed from the leaf surface, with translocation throughout the plant, moving in both the xylem and phloem, and accumulating in the meristematic tissue. Uses Selective post-emergence control of annual and perennial grass weeds in potatoes, soya beans, sugar beet, peanuts, oilseed rape, sunflowers, vegetables, cotton, and flax. Phytotoxicity Most non-graminaceous crops are tolerant. Formulation types EC; SC. Compatibility Can be used in combination with post-emergence broad-leaved herbicides.

quizalofop-P-tefuryl
Mode of action Systemic herbicide, absorbed from the leaf surface, with translocation throughout the plant, moving in both the xylem and phloem, and accumulating in the meristematic tissue. Uses Control of annual grasses such as Avena fatua and Alopecurus myosuroides, and perennial grasses such as Sorghum halepense and Elymus repens, in potatoes, flax, oilseed rape, peas, sugar beet, cotton, and soya beans. Formulation types EC. Compatibility Certain post-emergence broad-leaved herbicides are incompatible with quizalofop-P-tefuryl. Selected tradenames: 'Pantera' (Uniroyal); 'Sector-T' (IPESA)
