The effect of clodinafop –propargyl against the mucus land snail, Helix aspersa, was studied under laboratory and field conditions during autumn 2020 season. Snails were exposed to serial concentrations clodinafop-propargyl for successive seven days using contact bait techniques. Median Lethal concentration (LC50) determined LC25 test compound examined on total protein alkaline phosphatase afte...

in order to study the tolerance level of different wild barley (hordeum spontaneum) populations to clodinafop propargyl (topic®), a pot dose response experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design with three replications at ferdowsi university of mashhad greenhouse in 2009. cultivared barley (hordeum vulgare) and three wild barley populations (shiraz, boshroyeh, and torogh) were stu...

Three laboratory experiments were conducted to evaluate the side-effects of four common herbicides used to control weeds associated with local crops on egg of the parasitoid Trichogramma evanescens. These herbicides are Glyphosate 48%SL, Bromoxynil 24%EC, Thiobencarb 50% and Clodinafop-propargyl 15%WP. The biological aspects such% parasitism, % adult emergence, sex ratio, developmental period a...

Background Among the weeds in Iran, resistant Lolium rigidum Gaud is considered a troublesome weed winter cereals due to its tendency evolve cross (CR) and multiple resistance (MR) herbicides. Objective This research examined patterns mechanisms of L. clodinafop-propargyl (CP) mesosulfuron methyl+iodosulfuron methyl (MI). Methods Experiments were conducted on four putative-resistant biotypes on...

Laboratory studies were conducted to compare the relative fitness of clodinafop-propargyl herbicide resistant Lolium rigidum accessions with their clodinafop-propargyl susceptible counterparts in 2014. Factors evaluated were Lolium populations at constant salinity stress (0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 dS cm2) and water stress (0, -3, -6, -9, -12 and -15 bar). The maximum germination in salinity stres...

The photodissociation of perdeuterated propargyl (D(2)CCCD) and propynyl (D(3)CCC) radicals was investigated using fast beam photofragment translational spectroscopy. Radicals were produced from their respective anions by photodetachment at 540 and 450 nm (below and above the electron affinity of propynyl). The radicals were then photodissociated at 248 or 193 nm. The recoiling photofragments w...

The first enantioselective copper-catalyzed decarboxylative propargylic alkylation has been developed. Treatment of propargyl β-ketoesters with a catalyst, prepared in situ from [Cu(CH3 CN)4 BF4 ] and a newly developed chiral tridentate ketimine P,N,N-ligand under mild reaction conditions, generates β-ethynyl ketones in good yields and with high enantioselectivities without requiring the pregen...

BACKGROUND Knowledge of the mechanisms of herbicide resistance is important for designing long term sustainable weed management strategies. Here, we have used an integrated biology and molecular approach to investigate the mechanisms of resistance to acetyl-CoA carboxylase inhibiting herbicides in a UK black-grass population (BG2). METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Comparison between BG2 phenoty...

Laboratory studies were conducted to compare the relative fitness of clodinafop-propargyl herbicide resistant Lolium rigidum accessions with their clodinafop-propargyl susceptible counterparts in 2014. Factors evaluated were Lolium populations at constant salinity stress (0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 dS cm2) and water stress (0, -3, -6, -9, -12 and -15 bar). The maximum germination in salinity stres...

Pesticides constitute a heterogeneous category of chemicals specifically designed for the control of pests, weeds or plant diseases. Pesticides have been considered potential chemical mutagens. In the present study, the cytotoxic and genotoxic potential of the commercial herbicide Topik (containing 80g/L clodinafop-propargyl and 20 g/l cloquintocet-mexyl) was determined using Allium cepa root t...
