Clodinafop Propargyl

Clodinafop-propargyl is to inhibit the activity of acetyl-CoA carboxylase in plants. It is a systemic conductive herbicide, absorbed by the leaves and sheaths of plants, transmitted by phloem, and accumulated in meristems of plants. In this case, acetyl-CoA carboxylase is inhibited, and fatty acid synthesis is stopped. So cell growth and division cannot proceed normally, and lipid-containing structures such as membrane systems are destroyed, leading to plant death.

Application

Clodinafop-propargyl is especially effective for malignant grasses. By mixing with safener in a certain proportion it is used for controlling and killing off annual gramineous weeds of cereal crops such as sage, maidenhair, wild oats, ryegrass, bluegrass, dogtail, etc.
