Approaches to and Definitions of the Mechanisms of Action of Herbicides

摘要: When raising the question of mechanism action herbicides, type approach and answer will differ considerably depending on viewpoint investigator. An to a certain pre-emergence herbicide might be that compound is taken up by imbibing seed severely inhibits root growth emerging seedling (e.g. p. 148); for post-emergence it rapidly dessicates established leaf tissue, but only in light 89). These answers use visual information. However, vast amount information has been accumulated over recent years cytological, physiological, biochemical, molecular aspects different plant systems, thus enabling us this much more precisely.
