Uptake and Translocation |
Following foliar application, is rapidly
absorbed and translocated in both xylem and phloem. |
| Basis of
Selectivity |
Inhibition of acetolactate synthase in susceptible
plants leads to a rapid cessation of cell division and growth.
Tolerant species rapidly convert ethametsulfuron-methyl to non-phytotoxic
metabolites. |
|
Application Methods |
Postemergence |
|
Residual Activity |
Rapid soil microbial degradation. |
|
Unique Characteristics |
A non-ionic surfactant must be added.
Typical symptoms of plant death (leaf crinkling, curling, chlorosis)
occur 5-10 days after application depending on growing conditions. |
