Tembotrione is a herbicide belonging to the HPPD (dioxygenase) inhibitor class with crop selectivity. Tembotrione effectively controls a variety of weeds including broadleaf and gramineous species by disrupting carotenoid synthesis, which leads to chlorophyll degradation and leaf whitening. Mixing Tembotrione with isoxaflutole or adding surfactants optimizes its efficacy and reduces phytotoxicity, with no residual impact on subsequent cruciferous crops, thus helping to increase maize grain yield. The activity of Tembotrione decreases under drought conditions, and under specific conditions (such as double-dose treatment), it may cause reversible yellowing and even yield reduction in crops such as poppy.

Description

Tembotrione is a herbicide belonging to the HPPD (dioxygenase) inhibitor class with crop selectivity. Tembotrione effectively controls a variety of weeds including broadleaf and gramineous species by disrupting carotenoid synthesis, which leads to chlorophyll degradation and leaf whitening. Mixing Tembotrione with isoxaflutole or adding surfactants optimizes its efficacy and reduces phytotoxicity, with no residual impact on subsequent cruciferous crops, thus helping to increase maize grain yield. The activity of Tembotrione decreases under drought conditions, and under specific conditions (such as double-dose treatment), it may cause reversible yellowing and even yield reduction in crops such as poppy[1][2].

In Vivo

Tembotrione (88-176 g a.i. ha-1; post-emergence foliar spray; single/split application) provides no significant weed control at a single 88 g a.i. ha-1 dose in infested alkaloid poppy fields, while a split 176 g a.i. ha-1 dose or a single 88 g a.i. ha-1 dose following mesotrione application provides significant control of total weeds, Chenopodium album, and Polygonum aviculare (with additional control of Fallopia convolvulus dry weight in wetter conditions), but no control of Papaver rhoeas; all tembotrione doses cause transient, reversible yellowish foliar discoloration in poppy[1].
Tembotrione (120 g/ha; post-emergence spray; 15-20 DAS; with 1000 mL/ha surfactant) provides the most effective control of mixed grassy (including Bracharia ramosa) and non-grassy weeds in maize, resulting in maximum grain yields of 5333 kg/ha (2009) and 5483 kg/ha (2010) with no residual phytotoxicity to a succeeding mustard crop[2].

Animal Model: Botond[1]
Dosage: 88 g a.i. ha-1 (single application); 176 g a.i. ha-1 (split dose); 88 g a.i. ha-1 (post mesotrione application)
Administration: post-emergence foliar spray; single application (88 g a.i. ha-1 single/split first dose); split application (176 g a.i. ha-1: POST 1 and POST 2); single application (88 g a.i. ha-1 POST 2, post mesotrione)
Result: Failed to significantly reduce total weed count or dry weight in 2012 or 2013; did not significantly reduce Chenopodium album, Fallopia convolvulus, Papaver rhoeas, or Polygonum aviculare count or dry weight in either year.
Caused transient yellowish discoloration (10-20% of foliage) 7-14 days after application, which resolved by 21 days post-treatment.
Significantly reduced total weed count in 2012 and 2013, and total weed dry weight in 2012 and 2013; significantly reduced Chenopodium album count and dry weight in both years, and Polygonum aviculare count and dry weight in both years; did not significantly reduce Fallopia convolvulus or Papaver rhoeas count or dry weight in either year.
Caused transient yellowish foliar discoloration (10-20% of foliage) 7-14 days after application, which resolved by 21 days post-treatment.

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.67 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.67 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
