Isoxapyrifop is a selective herbicide used primarily for the control of grassy weeds in crops such as rice, wheat, and soybeans. It works by inhibiting acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase), an enzyme crucial for fatty acid biosynthesis in plants, disrupting the formation of cell membranes and leading to the death of target weeds. This mechanism selectively affects grasses while sparing broadleaf crops, making it an effective tool in weed management. Isoxapyrifop is commonly applied in agricultural fields to protect crops from weed competition, improving crop yield and quality.
