Iodosulfuron methyl, the active ingredient in ProForce Duke Herbicide, belongs to the Sulfonylurea chemistry class and is a group B herbicide. As with other herbicides of the sulfonylurea herbicides, the primary biochemical target site of iodosulfuron methyl sodium is the enzyme acetolactate synthase (ALS). ALS is a key enzyme in the production of branched-chain amino acids, critical for protein synthesis and normal plant growth.
The visible symptoms of herbicidal action are arrested growth within the first few days after application and the appearance of chlorotic patches, followed by slow shoot necrosis. Susceptible plants stop growth almost immediately after post-emergence application. Plants will be completely killed 4 to 6 weeks after application under good growing conditions.
Pack Sizes: 100gm & 500gm. The 100gm pack is supplied with a 1-gram measure scoop.
