Abstract/Contents:States that "organic herbicides represent the most effective weapon available to farmers worldwide in their war against weeds". Provides a history of the development of herbicide antidotes with an emphasis on the discovery of 2,4-D during World War II. Also describes the process of discovering and developing effective herbicide antidotes, mentioning that the process is lengthy and expensive. Lists important considerations that should be taken into account. Discusses the screening of candidate antidotes and structure-activity correlation studies. States that "most of the success in discovering herbicide antidotes has resulted from random screening tests based primarily on the empirical method of selecting a large number of chemicals as candidate antidotes". Describes the chemistry of herbicide antidotes, including their synthesis as well as their chemical, physical, and toxological properties. Analyzes the field performance of various herbicide antidotes and lists factors that affect this performance. Concludes that "the concept of using herbicide antidotes offers a potential alternative for increasing the selectivity of currently available herbicides" and that "advances in our understanding of herbicide action and degradation by plants may lead to the development of more effective herbicide antidotes in the future".
