Mode of Action
These two chemistries give different modes of action in which one is inhibiting the HPPD enzyme. It can be absorbed by both the foliage and roots of plants, with translocation occurring in both upward (acropetal) and downward (basipetal) directions and the second chemistry acts as a selective systemic herbicide by inhibiting PS-II. It is primarily absorbed through the roots, although it can also be absorbed through the foliage. It undergoes acropetal translocation through the xylem, accumulating in the apical meristems and leaves of plants.
Directions for Use
