Cyhalofop acid is a chemical compound derived from cyhalofop-butyl, an aryloxyphenoxypropionate herbicide widely used in agriculture for controlling grassy weeds in rice paddies. Structurally, cyhalofop acid is characterized by its phenoxypropionic acid moiety, which facilitates its action as an inhibitor of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), a crucial enzyme in the lipid biosynthesis pathway of grass species. This inhibition disrupts the production of essential fatty acids required for membrane synthesis and energy storage, leading to growth cessation and eventual plant death in susceptible weed species. While highly effective against a variety of grassy weeds, cyhalofop acid exhibits selectivity that minimizes damage to rice crops, making it an important tool for maintaining yield and quality in rice production. Research on cyhalofop acid focuses on resistance management and environmental safety to ensure its sustainable use, including studies on its degradation, movement in ecosystems, and impact on non-target organisms.
