  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 ...

  6. Floral morphology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floral_morphology

    The floral formula is a way of symbolically representing the structure of a flower through the use of letters, numbers and other signs. Typically, the floral formula is used to represent the morphological characteristics of the flowers of a given plant family, rather than of a particular species. The following are the most commonly used symbols ...

  7. Agricultural cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agricultural_cycle

    A grafted plant consists of two parts: first rootstock, which is the lower part of the plant that comprises roots and the lowest part of the shoot; second, the branches and primary stem, which consists of the upper and main part of the shoot which gradually develops into a fully nourished plant. [1]

  8. Megaspore - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megaspore

    Plant ovules with megasporocytes before meiosis: Gymnosperm ovule on left, angiosperm ovule (inside ovary) on right. After megasporogenesis, the megaspore develops into the female gametophyte (the embryo sac) in a process called megagametogenesis. The process of megagametogenesis varies depending on which pattern of megasporogenesis occurred.

  9. Monocotyledon reproduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monocotyledon_reproduction

    However, internal seed structure is vastly different between these groups. The cotyledon is the embryonic leaf within a seed; monocots have one whereas dicots have two. The evolution of having one or two cotyledons may have arisen 200-150 Mya when monocots and dicots are thought to have diverged.
