Abstract/Contents:Manufactured by Dow, triclopyr turf products sold under the trade names of TURFLON Amine, TURFLON Ester, TURFLON II Amine, and TURFLON D, are prepackaged mixtures of triclopyr plus 2,4-D intended to broaden the spectrum of weed control. It is necessary to use higher spray volumes to achieve adequate coverage and penetration of the target plant canopy. Once absorbed, it is translocated in the phloem to the carbohydrate sinks (meristematic tissue, storage organs, etc.) in the plant. Then it acts like the plant hormone auxin. Malfunctions in regulation of cell wall softening and protein synthesis, result in gross anatomical aberrations such as epinasty, stem thickening, chlorosis and necrosis. Best efficacy of triclopyr is obtained by conditions that favor normal growth. Plant stress will reduce triclopyr efficacy.
