2,4-D plasmids and persistence

Nature, 1977
ACCORDING to the UN Food and Agricultural Organisation production year book of 1974, 27×106 kg of the herbicide 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) were consumed in 1973, making this the most extensively used of all pesticides. One desirable characteristic of 2,4-D, apart from its efficacy as a herbicide, is its lack of persistence in the ...

2,4-D dissipation in field soils after applications of 2,4-D dimethylamine salt and 2,4-D 2-ethylhexyl ester

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 1997
Abstract 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) was first registered in 1947 as an agricultural herbicide, and it is still the most widely used herbicide worldwide. End-use products, however, are generally formulated as inorganic or amine salts, or as esters.

2,4-D-induced parthenocarpy in pear is mediated by enhancement of GA4 biosynthesis.

Physiologia Plantarum : An International Journal for Plant Biology, 2018
Parthenocarpy, the productions of seedless fruit without pollination or fertilization, is a potentially desirable trait in many commercially grown fruits, especially in pear, which is self-incompatible.

Effects of low, subchronic exposure of 2,4‐Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4‐D) and commercial 2,4‐D formulations on early life stages of fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas)

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2018
Aquatic herbicides are commonly used to control a wide variety of algae and plants, but they also have the potential to contaminate and affect nontarget organisms.

Weed Control with Halauxifen-Methyl Applied Alone and in Mixtures with 2,4-D, Dicamba, and Glyphosate

Weed technology, 2018
Synthetic auxin herbicides such as 2,4-D and dicamba are often utilized to control broadleaf weeds in preplant burndown applications to soybean. Halauxifen-methyl is a new synthetic auxin herbicide for broadleaf weed control in preplant burndown ...

2,4-D DEGRADATION AND 2,4-D DEGRADING MICROORGANISMS IN SOILS1

Soil Science, 1984
ABSTRACT In laboratory studies on Cecil loamy sand and Webster sandy clay loam, I examined the influence of soil-water tension and soil temperature on 14C-2,4-D degradation and the formation of nonextractable 14C-residues, and I correlated the degradation rate with the growth rate of 2,4-D degrading microorganisms. 14C-2,4-D rapidly mineralized in the

Engineering 2,4-D resistance into cotton

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 1992
To reduce damage by drift-levels of the herbicide 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, we have engineered the 2,4-D resistance trait into cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.). The 2,4-D monooxygenase gene tfdA from Alcaligenes eutrophus plasmid pJP5 was isolated, modified and expressed in transgenic tobacco and cotton plants.
