Description and Uses
Bilanofos is a natural product formed during
the fermentation of Streptomyces hygroscopicus. It
is readily soluble in water and insoluble in organic
solvents such as acetone, ethanol, benzene, and
hexane (9).
Bilanophos is a GS inhibitor. In
the plant, bilanofos is metabolized to L-glufosinate,
which inhibits the enzyme GS. Ammonium ions
rapidly accumulate in the plant, and photosynthesis
is inhibited, leading to rapid death of the plant. It is
inactivated in soil.
