A novel pyrimidynyloxybenzoic herbicide (ZJ0273) uniformly labeled with (14)C on the benzoate ring was applied to soils under sterile and nonsterile conditions to understand the effect of soil microorganisms and selected properties on its dissipation and transformations to bound resides and (14)CO(2). A significant effect of soil microorganisms was found in an acidic soil, where sterilization significantly prolonged the half-dissipation time (DT(50)) of ZJ0273 from 15.57 to 34.31 days and decreased the total amount of mineralized (14)CO(2) from 19.91 to 0.43%. However, sterilization showed limited effect on the patterns of bound residue or extractable residue levels in soils having pH > or = 6.1. In addition, a significant suppression of high pH was found on the dissipation of extractable residues and formation of bound residues. The enhancement of bound residue formation by low soil pH was attributed to increased conversion of ZJ0273 to its intermediates, which were rapidly bound to soil organic matter.

ZJ0273 (propyl 4-(2-(4, 6-demethoxy pyrimidin-2-yloxy) benzylamino) benzoate) is a novel pyrimidynyloxybenzoic-based herbicide developed in China for oilseed crop. This study was aimed to construct new strains capable of degrading naphthalene and ZJ0273 by protoplast fusion between Amycolatopsis sp. M3-1 and Pseudomonas sp.

Enzyme activity and microbial population in soils have important roles in keeping soil fertility. ZJ0273 is a novel pyrimidynyloxybenzoic-based herbicide, which was recently developed in China. The effect of ZJ0273 on soil enzyme activity and microbial population in two different soils was investigated in this study for the first time.

ZJ0273 (propyl 4-(2-(4,6-demethoxy pyrimidin-2-yloxy)benzylamino)benzoate) is a novel herbicide developed in China for oilseed crop. Sixteen bacteria capable of utilizing ZJ0273 as the sole carbon source were isolated from soils. One of the isolates was designated as Bacillus sp.

Pyribambenz propyl, or ZJ0273, is a new and widely used pyrimidynyloxybenzoic herbicide; however, its behavior and safety in anaerobic soils remain poorly understood. In this study, ZJ0273 was labeled with (14)C on its benzoate-, pyrimidyl- and benzyl- rings respectively, and applied to anoxic flooding soils to characterize its anaerobic fates. Over the 100 d incubation, the amended (14)C-ZJ0273 was slightly mineralized to (14)CO2 (<4%) or redistributed into the overlaying water (<10%), with the majority of the (14)C (82-98%) remaining in the soil.
