Evaluation of P-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate Dioxygenase-Inhibiting Herbicides for Controlling Mugwort per nursery (Gilliam et al., 1990; Evaluation of p-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate Mathers, 1999). Yet, control options Dioxygenase-inhibiting Herbicides for for mugwort are limited due in part to challenges presented by herbicide costs, Controlling Mugwort herbicide phytosafety across desirable crop commodities (including turfgrass 1,2,7 1,3,5 2,6 and ornamentals), and limited efficacy William E.

Mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) is a perennial invasive weed species that stands of field corn (Bing and Pridham, has infiltrated row crops, turfgrass, ornamentals, and various noncrop areas. 1963, 1964). Glyphosate is effective on Currently, multiple mimics of indole-3-acetic acid can provide control of this young mugwort plants but is less effec- species; however, these herbicides can damage certain sensitive ornamental plants. tive at controlling large mugwort plants When applied at reduced rates, the p-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD)- in later stages of growth (Ahrens, 1976; inhibiting herbicides mesotrione and topramezone have demonstrated some Bradley and Hagood, 2002a, 2002b). selectivity among certain ornamental plants.

It is the most widely used herbicide in the world, and the third most commonly used in North America.[1] 2,4-D is also an important synthetic auxin, often used in laboratories for plant research and as a supplement in plant cell culture media such as MS medium. History 2,4-D was developed during World War II by a British team at Rothamsted Experimental Station, under the leadership of Judah Hirsch Quastel, aiming to increase crop yields for a nation at war.[citation needed] When it was commercially released in 1946, it became the first successful selective herbicide and allowed for greatly enhanced weed control in wheat, maize (corn), rice, and similar cereal grass crop, because it only kills dicots, leaving behind monocots. Mechanism of herbicide action 2,4-D is a synthetic auxin, which is a class of plant growth regulators.

Founded in 1981 as a national, grassroots, membership organization that represents community-based organizations and a range of people seeking to bridge the interests of consumers, farmers and farmworkers, Beyond Pesticides advances improved protections from pesticides and alternative pest management strategies that reduce or eliminate a reliance on pesticides. Our membership and network span the 50 states and the world. EPA’s proposed interim decision (PID) on the weed killer clopyralid is inadequate to protect property, nontarget plants, and pollinators from exposure to the chemical. Clopyralid poses unreasonable adverse effects that cannot be remedied by EPA’s proposed fixes. It should not be reregistered. Clopyralid has a long history of causing environmental and property damage through drift, runoff, use of treated plant material (such as straw or grass clippings) for mulch or compost, contaminated irrigation water, and urine or manure from animals consuming treated vegetation. Clopyralid (3,6-dichloro-2-pyridinecarboxylic acid) is an herbicide used to control broadleaf weeds on nonresidential lawns and turf, range, pastures, right-of ways and on several crops.

  • Clopyralid 7B.1
    Clopyralid 7b.1 CLOPYRALID M. Tu, C. Hurd, R. Robison & J.M. Randall Herbicide Basics Synopsis Clopyralid is an auxin-mimic type herbicide. It is more Chemical formula: 3,6- selective (kills a more limited range of plants) than some dichloro-pyridinecarboxylic other auxin-mimic herbicides like picloram, triclopyr, or acid 2,4-D. Like other auxin-mimics, it has little effect on grasses and other monocots, but also does little harm to Herbicide Family: members of the mustard family (Brassicaceae) and several Pyridine (Picolinic Acid) other groups of broad-leaved plants. Clopyralid controls Target weeds: annual and many annual and perennial broadleaf weeds, particularly of perennial broadleaf weeds, esp. the Asteraceae (sunflower family), Fabaceae (legume knapweeds, thistles, and other family), Solanaceae (nightshade family), Polygonaceae members of the sunflower, (knotweed family), and Violaceae (violet family). It is legume, and knotweed families chemically similar to picloram, but clopyralid has a shorter half-life, is more water-soluble, and has a lower adsorption Forms: salt & ester capacity than picloram. Clopyralid’s half-life in the Formulations: SL, WG environment averages one to two months and ranges up to one year. It is degraded almost entirely by microbial Mode of Action: Auxin mimic metabolism in soils and aquatic sediments. Clopyralid is not Water Solubility: 1,000 ppm degraded by sunlight or hydrolysis. The inability of clopyralid to bind with soils and its persistence implies that Adsorption potential: low clopyralid has the potential to be highly mobile and a Primary degradation mech: contamination threat to water resources and non-target plant Slow microbial metabolism species, although no extensive offsite movement has been documented.

All rights reserved 1559-0631/13 www.nature.com/jes ORIGINAL ARTICLE Exposure to herbicides in house dust and risk of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia Catherine Metayer1, Joanne S. Colt2, Patricia A. Buffler1, Helen D. Reed3, Steve Selvin1, Vonda Crouse4 and Mary H. Ward2 We examine the association between exposure to herbicides and childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Dust samples were collected from homes of 269 ALL cases and 333 healthy controls (o8 years of age at diagnosis/reference date and residing in same home since diagnosis/reference date) in California, using a high-volume surface sampler or household vacuum bags. Amounts of agricultural or professional herbicides (alachlor, metolachlor, bromoxynil, bromoxynil octanoate, pebulate, butylate, prometryn, simazine, ethalfluralin, and pendimethalin) and residential herbicides (cyanazine, trifluralin, 2-methyl-4- chlorophenoxyacetic acid (MCPA), mecoprop, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), chlorthal, and dicamba) were measured. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated by logistic regression. Models included the herbicide of interest, age, sex, race/ethnicity, household income, year and season of dust sampling, neighborhood type, and residence type. The risk of childhood ALL was associated with dust levels of chlorthal; compared to homes with no detections, ORs for the first, second, and third tertiles were 1.49 (95% CI: 0.82–2.72), 1.49 (95% CI: 0.83–2.67), and 1.57 (95% CI: 0.90–2.73), respectively (P-value for linear trend ¼ 0.05). The magnitude of this association appeared to be higher in the presence of alachlor.

As indicated in Table 1, the correct value, from Knuteson (1999), is 49,000 mg/L. This error was noted by Dr. K. King (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service). The error has been corrected. While the Gleams-Driver runs were made using the 100 mg/L water solubility, re-runs using the water solubility of 49,000 mg/L yielded results that are indistinguishable from the original runs. Thus, the appendices have not been change. Water solubility is not a sensitive parameter in GLEAMS unless the soil water is saturated. This did not occur in the Gleams-Driver modeling. July 9, 2016 During an audit of WorksheetMaker (Version 6.00.15), it was noted that the chronic toxicity values of TCP to aquatic invertebrates had been entered incorrectly into the WorksheetMaker database and the aquatic toxicity values of TCP for algae had been omitted.
