Iodosulfuron-Methyl Sodium
Type: Herbicide
Mode of Action: Inhibiting the enzyme acetolactate synthase (ALS)
Common Product Names: Derigo & Autumn Super
What is it?
Iodosulfuron-Methyl Sodium is a post-emergent herbicide, meaning it is applied after the weeds have already emerged. It is particularly effective against a wide range of grass and broadleaf weeds. This active ingredient is known for its excellent selectivity, making it safe for use in cereal crops such as wheat, barley, and rye. It is also characterized by its ability to work at very low application rates, reducing the environmental impact compared to other herbicides.
How does it work?
When applied to crops, Iodosulfuron-Methyl Sodium is absorbed by the leaves of the weeds. It then translocates to the growing points of the plants, where it inhibits the acetolactate synthase enzyme. This inhibition disrupts the production of branched-chain amino acids, which are vital for plant growth. As a result, the weed's growth is halted, leading to its eventual death.
