Auxin and Auxinic Herbicide Mechanism(s) of Action - Part 1 - Introduction

The selective control of broadleaf weeds in cereal grain crops by auxinic herbicides has made this group one of the most widespread and important herbicide families in use. These herbicides were the f

Overall Picture of Auxinic Herbicide Action This animation summarizes how auxin and auxinic herbicides may turn on certain genes and how those gene products may alter plant growth. 
Accion Enzimatica Esta animación es sobre la actividad de la EPSP sintasa. 
Competencia Herbicida-Substrato Esta animación es sobre la naturaleza competitiva del glifosato. 
Herbicide Uptake by Roots This animation shows how herbicides are taken up by roots and illustrates the path the herbicide takes across the root to reach the vascular system of the plant. 
Herbicide Uptake by Leaves and Cells This animation describes how herbicides are taken up by leaves and illustrates how physico-chemical characteristics alter their movement across cuticles. Passive and active mechanisms of herbicide absorption across plant membranes into cells are shown as well. 
Flower Parts This animation illustrates the botanical parts of flower structures. 
Flower structures, Plant Breeding, Cross Pollination, Making Crosses This animations illustrates the structures of a flower, plant breeding, cross pollination and making crosses. 
Lateral Flow Strip Test This animation illustrates the concepts of protein detection using the lateral flow strip method. This method is simliar to ELISA and is utilized in detecting GMOs, among other applications. 
Transpiration This animation details how water moves through plants and how various factors affect this movement. 
Syringing This video clip discusses the technique of syringing for water management in turf grasses. 
Phosphorus in Surface Waters This animation demonstrates the four forms that phosphorus (P) can take in surface water, and how the equilibrium between the forms can be upset and then rebalanced.
