Retention of Metamitron by Model and Natural Particulate Matter
International Journal of Environmental Analytical Chemistry, 1996 Adsorption isotherms of metamitron on model soil colloidal components: kaolinite, illite, montmorillonite, iron oxide and humic acid, and their binary associations were obtained using a batch equilibration procedure. Sorption parameters, K-f and n(p) were calculated by fitting the sorption data to the Freundlich equation and results obtained for binary

Impact of integrated weed control methods on yield performance and sustainable weed suppression in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceWeed infestation remains a major constraint limiting the yield potential of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) worldwide. Weeds compete with the crop for light, water, and nutrients, and if not effectively managed, they can cause severe yield and quality ...

The Potential Use of Metamitron as a Chemical Fruit-thinning Agent in Mandarin [PDF]
HortTechnology, 2018 Under conditions of profuse flowering and excessive fruit set, citrus ( Citrus sp.) fruit need to be thinned to increase the size of remaining fruit, reduce the intensity of alternate bearing, or both. Metamitron was recently developed as a chemical fruit-thinning agent for apple (

Time of metamitron application and concentration in the chemical thinning of ‘Maciel’ peach [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Fruticultura, 2019 In the peach tree cultivation, the producer has the challenge of obtaining good quality fruits and maintaining production in a balanced way over the years. Thinning favors these parameters and reduces the fruit load on plants.

Effects of Metamitron under Different Relative Humidity Conditions on the Fruit Abscission of Malus domestica Borkh. Cultivars [PDF]
Horticulturae, 2020 Metamitron is an apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) fruit thinner that acts by reducing the photosynthetic capacity of trees. Relative humidity may influence thinning efficacy; however, the broadness of this effect is not yet fully understood.

Efficiency of fruitlet thinning in ‘Granny Smith’ apples by use of metamitron
Acta Horticulturae, 2018 In this paper the results of chemical fruit thinning in the apple cultivar 'Granny Smith' carried out with the herbicide Brevis® containing 150 g kg(-1) of metamitron as the active ingredient are reported. In two treatments, the effect of this compound was enhanced by NAA (1-naphthaleneacetic acid).
