Application |
| |
|
Biochemistry: cell division inhibitor. Mode of action: selective herbicide. It is taken up readily by the hypocotyls, mesocotyls and coleoptiles, and, to a lesser extent,by the roots of germinating weeds. Uses: herbicide effective against main annual grasses, broad-leaved weeds and sedges in transplanted and seeded rice. Phytotoxicity: applied alone, pretilachlor will cause injury to direct seeded rice. Mixtures: (pretilachlor +) fenclorim; clomeprop; dimethametryn + pyrazolynate; pyrazosulfuron-ethyl + esprocarb + dimethametryn.
