High impact information on Sulcotrione

• Under simulated sunlight irradiation, sulcotrione (a new class of triketone herbicides) sorbed on cuticular wax films was photolyzed and mainly underwent an intramolecular cyclization [1].
• The LC/ESI/MSMS method allows the trace quantification (ng/l) of the new triketone herbicides, i.e. sulcotrione and mesotrione, and important herbicides and metabolites, in natural waters [2].
• A series of pyrrolidine-2,4-dione and piperidine-2,4-dione derivatives were prepared and evaluated for their herbicidal activities where some of these compounds exhibited good bioactivity against Echinochloa crus-galli in comparison with sulcotrione [3].
• Influence of soil properties on the adsorption-desorption of sulcotrione and its hydrolysis metabolites on various soils [4].
• The expression of the hpd gene expression cassette was demonstrated by accumulation of the hpd gene-specific transcript and by a higher resistance of the transgenic seedlings towards the HPD specific inhibitor sulcotrione [5].

Associations of Sulcotrione with other chemical compounds

• Two months after treatment, the cumulative amounts of herbicide residues leached from the soil were 14.5% and 7% of the applied radioactivity for sulcotrione and atrazine, respectively [6].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Sulcotrione

• Winter wheat displayed a high degree of tolerance to mesotrione (in both experiment types): however this crop was less tolerant to sulcotrione especially in the bioassay experiment [7].
