| Abstract/Contents: | "Control of problematic weeds in turf and agricultural crops is a continuous challenge. In some cases, herbicidal active ingredients have been shown to be more effective in combination than when applied individually. This is referred to as "synergy", since the combination demonstrates an activity level exceeding that expected, based on knowledge of the individual activities of the components. Mesotrione, already known individually for its herbicidal properties, displays a synergistic effect when applied in combination with other herbicides. It is known for controlling a wide spectrum of broadleaf weeds at a wide range of growth stages when applied postemergence in corn. Mesotrione, an HPPD inhibitor, is typically used at rates ranging from 105-225 g ai/ha depending on herbicide formulation and application timing to control weeds. In susceptible weeds, it disrupts carotenoid biosynthesis, an essential process for plant growth, which leads to plant death. Unlike weeds, certain turf grass species and corn plants are able to tolerate mesotrione by rapidly metabolizing the active compound into inactive compounds. Mesotrione (in the form Callisto® 480 SC) was applied either pre or post-emergence to several weed species alone and in tank mixture with various herbicides. Weed control synergy was observed when mesotrione was applied in tank mixture with selected cell division disruptors, auxins, plant growth regulators, photosynthetic and lipid biosynthesis inhibitors." |
