Dual mode of action herbicide rimisoxafen targets both phytoene desaturase and solanesyl diphosphate synthase
Rimisoxafen inhibits SDPS and PDS both at the enzyme level and in vivo. Bringing two MoAs to the field within a single molecule promises to mitigate target site resistance risk for rimisoxafen, an outcome now achieved through mixtures and thereby could reduce the volume of weed control chemical residue applied to fields worldwide, especially in the corn and soybean markets. © 2025 Society of Chemical Industry.
