ABSTRACT
Epyrifenacil is a novel PPO-inhibiting herbicide discovered and developed by Sumitomo Chemical. Epyrifenacil belongs to the pyrimidinedione chemical class and has a unique three-ring structure. It is systemically active on a broad range of weeds including grass weeds and some target-site-based PPO-inhibitor resistant broadleaf weeds. Its systemic action is mediated by a phloem movement of the active form of epyrifenacil. In addition, epyrifenacil's vapor action is sufficiently low to not cause an off-target movement to nontarget sensitive crops. It is expected that epyrifenacil will contribute to global food production in the near future. © 2024 The Author(s).
