Antagonizing Peroxidizing Herbicides

  • Chapter
Peroxidizing Herbicides

Abstract

Peroxidizing herbicides such as p-nitrodiphenyl ethers, cyclic imides, oxadiazoles or pyrazole derivatives have a common mode of action, i.e. inhibition of chlorophyll biosynthesis. Binding of these herbicides to their target enzyme, protoporphyrinogen oxidase, results in the rapid accumulation of protoporphyrin IX. This chlorophyll intermediate causes light-induced formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by energy transfer to oxygen, resulting in peroxidative destruction of pigments, proteins and nucleic acids as well as disintegration of cellular membrane systems by lipid peroxidation (reviewed by Böger and Sandmann, 1990; Böger and Wakabayashi 1995; Wakabayashi and Böger, this vol.).
