Goosegrass

Plant. Trifluralin was absorbed by carrot roots in greenhouse soils pretreated with the herbicide (0.75 Ib/acre). The major metabolite formed was a,a,a-trifluoro-2,6-dinitro-7V-(/i-propyl-toluene)-p-toluidine (Golab et al., 1967). Two metabolites of trifluralin that were reported in goosegrass Eleucine indica) were 3-methoxy-2,6-dinitro-A7A-dipropyl-4-(trifluoromethyl)benz-enamine and A-(2,6-dinitro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-jV-propylpropanamide (Duke et al., 1991).

TrvDtoDhol. Tryptophol [12] is a natural product in plants and microorganisms and is involved in indoleacetic acid metabolism. A major metabolite from Drechslera nodulosum. tryptophol was isolated and identified from extracts of culture filtrates of this fungal pathogen (8S). This report was the first to show that this compound was phytotoxic and caused necrotic lesions on goosegrass (Eleusine indica L.), the weed host of this fungus. Necrotic injury in. goosegrass occurred after application of tryptophol at 6.2 x 10 ...
