GARUDA SUPER ( QUIZALOFOP-ETHYL 5% w/w EC )
Quizalofop-ethyl 5% EC based on Ethyl 2-{4-(6-chloroquinoxalin-2-yloxy) phenoxy} is a selective post emergence herbicide for the effective control of Grassy w**ds in Soybean, Cotton, Groundnut, Black gram and Onion crops.
Quizalofop-ethyl 5% w/w EC, a selective systemic herbicide, works by inhibiting the synthesis of fatty acids in w**ds, specifically targeting the enzyme Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase), leading to w**d death.
Here's a more detailed explanation of its mode of action:
• Systemic Herbicide:
Quizalofop-ethyl is absorbed through the leaves and translocated throughout the plant, reaching the meristematic tissues.
• ACCase Inhibition:
It inhibits the activity of Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase), an enzyme crucial for fatty acid biosynthesis in plants.
• Selective Action:
