Specifications:*5%TC Application:Tribenuron-methyl is a selective
systemic herbicide used to control annual and perennial dicots in
cereals and fallow land. Tribenuron-methyl is applied as a
foliar spray and directly to the soil as it is rapidly absorbed by
the foliage and the roots, and is translocated throughout the plant
to the growing points. Tribeneuron-methyl acts by inhibiting
the synthesis of amino acids, specifically valine and isoleucine,
which prevents cell division and cell growth. Selectivity occurs
due to the differences in the metabolism of sulfonylureas between
crops and weeds. Growth ceases almost immediately after treatment
and death results within 7 – *1 days. Weeds specifically
susecptable to treatment with tribenuron-methyl include thistle,
dock, curl sorrel, yarrow, milk thistle, plantain, dandelion,
horsetail, buttercup and coltsfoot. Crops suitable to be treated
with tribenuron-methyl include barley, durum wheat, green cover on
land not being used for crop production, oats, rye (winter),
triticale, wheat.Tribenuron-methyl can be used as *0% or *5%, and
in numerous formulations, such as water dispersible granules. It
can also be used in combination with thiensulfuron-methyl
specifically for barley and wheat.
