This chemical compound is an organochloride and a derivative of benzoic acid. ==Role as herbicide== Dicamba controls annual and perennial rose weeds in grain crops and highlands, and it is used to control brush and bracken in pastures, as well as legumes and cacti. It kills broadleaf weeds before and after they sprout. In combination with a phenoxy herbicide or with other herbicides, dicamba is used in pastures, range land, and noncrop areas (fence rows, roadways, and wastage) to control weeds. Dicamba is toxic to conifer species but is in general less toxic to grasses.〔Arnold P. Appleby, Franz Müller, Serge Carpy “Weed Control“ in ''Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry'' 2002, Wiley-VCH, Weinheim. 〕 Dicamba functions by increasing plant growth rate.〔 At sufficient concentrations, the plant outgrows its nutrient supplies and dies.〔http://www.fs.fed.us/r6/nr/fid/pubsweb/dicamba_99.pdf Retrieved 20 May 2010〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「dicamba」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
