Description

Haloxyfop is a herbicide that inhibits the binding of hydrogen fluoride to plant enzymes. It is used in the control of weeds, especially annual broadleaf and grasses. Haloxyfop is also used for weed control in tree seedlings, turfgrass, and other non-crop areas. Haloxyfop is not active against perennial plants or vines. This herbicide binds to the enzyme ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase (RuBisCO) at its active site. This binding inhibits RuBisCO activity and prevents the formation of plant sugars from carbon dioxide and water.

Haloxyfop has been shown to significantly decrease ATP levels in plants when exposed to concentrations as low as 0.2 mg/L for 4 hours, which may be due to inhibition of an aconitase enzyme involved in the production of ATP during photosynthesis or by inhibiting respiration through inhibition of cytochrome oxidase and nic
