  2. Mesotrione - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesotrione

    Mesotrione inhibits the enzyme 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD). [3] It is an extremely potent inhibitor of HPPD in laboratory tests using the plant Arabidopsis thaliana, with a K i value of about 10 pM. [6] In plants, HPPD is necessary for the biosynthesis of tocopherols and of plastoquinone, which is essential to carotenoid production

  3. 4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase inhibitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate_di...

    Mesotrione was introduced in 2002 and like sulcotrione is a triketone, so it is effective on the same weeds and crops, but is more potent, making it more useful in mixes with other herbicides - an important factor for fully controlling weeds and preventing the development of resistance.

  4. Leptospermone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leptospermone

    Leptospermone can be synthesized from phloroglucinol by a reaction with 3-methylbutanenitrile (isovaleronitrile) in the presence of a zinc chloride catalyst. . Phloroisovalerone imine is produced which is then alkylated with iodomethane after initial treatment with sodium ethoxide and methanol to produce an intermediate which is treated with aqueous hydrochloric acid resulting in ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isoxaflutole

    Isoxaflutole was first marketed by Rhône-Poulenc in 1996. It controls weeds which are important in crops including corn and sugarcane. [5] [9] [10] These include broad-leaved-weeds from Amaranthus, Datura stramonium and ragweed species and annual grass weeds of Alopecurus, Eriochloa and Panicum species.

  6. Agricultural cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agricultural_cycle

    It is a method in which a bud from the plant is joined onto the stem of another plant. [2] The plant in which the bud is implanted in eventually develops into a replica of the parent plant. The new plant can either divert its ways into forming an independent plant; however, in numerous cases it may remain attached and form various accumulations.

  8. Bioprecipitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioprecipitation

    Bioprecipitation is the concept of rain-making bacteria and was proposed by David Sands from Montana State University in the 1970s. [1] This is precipitation that is beneficial for microbial and plant growth, it is a feedback cycle beginning with land plants generating small air-borne particles called aerosols that contain microorganisms that influence the formation of clouds by their ice ...

  9. Streak seeding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streak_seeding

    Streak seeding [1] is a method first described during ICCBM-3 by Enrico Stura to induce crystallization in a straight line into a sitting or hanging drop for protein crystallization by introducing microseeds. The purpose is to control nucleation and understand the parameters that make crystals grow. It is also used to test any particular set of ...
