There is a need for a selective, low-risk herbicide that can be used to control weeds in cereal cultures and turf. The present invention discloses that a bacterial secondary metabolite, thaxtomin and optionally another herbicide is an effective herbicide on broadleaved, sedge and grass weeds. Thaxtomin A and structurally similar compounds can be used as natural herbicides to control the germination and growth of weeds in cereal, turf grass, Timothy grass and pasture grass cultures with no phytotoxicity to these crops. As a natural, non-toxic compound, thaxtomin can be used as a safe alternative for weed control in both conventional and organic farming and gardening systems.

This invention relates to the application of herbicides in sewer liens to kill tree roots inside the lines and preventing re-growth into the lines for years after application. It relates to the discovery that latex polymers, organosilicone surfactants, deposition agents and other surfactants can be used to glue the herbicides to pipe surfaces. This discovery allows the use of plant killing herbicides to treat roots in sewer lineskilling themwhich results in their subsequent removal by decay and erosion processes. It also allows for the use of the herbicides to prevent regrowth back into the sewer lines by applying the herbicides in a compound which adheres to the sewer line surfaces and forms a long term coating on the pipe and joint surfaces where the roots might attempt to grow back in. The compound resists erosion and washing away preventing long term root re-infestations in the sewer lines.

The present invention relates to a composition comprising an aqueous continuous phase; a first dispersed phase which comprises styrene-maleimide copolymer particles; and a second dispersed phase which is either oil droplets, suspended particles or a capsule suspension; and to use of those compositions to control agricultural pests or diseases. It also relates to use of such compositions where rainfastness is important.
