|Section2= |Section7= }} Clopyralid (3,6-dichloro-2-pyridinecarboxylic acid) is a selective herbicide used for control of broadleaf weeds, especially thistles and clovers. Clopyralid is in the picolinic acid family of herbicides, which also includes aminopyralid, picloram, triclopyr, and several less common herbicides.〔Staff, Virginia Tech Cooperative Extension. Revised May 14, 2012 (Pyridine Herbicide Carryover: Causes and Precautions ) Accessed May 27, 2013〕〔Bob Hartzler, extension weed management specialist, Department of Agronomy, Iowa State University. February 21, 2006 (Aminopyralid - New herbicide for pastures, roadsides, etc. ) Accessed May 27, 2013〕 For control of Creeping Thistle, ''Cirsium arvense'', a noxious, perennial weed, clopyralid is one of the few effective herbicides available. It is particularly damaging to peas, tomatoes and sunflowers and can render potatoes, lettuce and spinach inedible. It does not affect members of the family Poaceae (grasses). Clopyralid is known for its ability to persist in dead plants and compost, and has accumulated to phytotoxic levels in finished compost in a few highly publicized cases. This first came to light in Washington State when, during 2000 and 2001, residues of clopyralid were detected in commercial compost, and compost made at a municipal site damaged tomatoes and other garden plants planted in it. Word quickly spread to other local and state governments and in 2002, DowAgro, the manufacturer of clopyralid, voluntarily deregistered it for use on domestic lawns in the US〔David E. Haskell , California Department of Pesticide Regulation (Clopyralid in Compost ) 2003 Proceedings of the California Weed Science Society 55:163-166〕 and it is banned in several US states but it is found in consumer products in Europe such as Scotts Verdone Extra and Vitax Lawn Clear 2.〔 Clopyralid is licensed for lawn use in France and under the following names: Bayer Jardin: Désherbant jeune gazon and Scanner Sélectif gazon Vilmorin: désherbant Gazon LONPAR. Brand names of clopyralid in the US market include Stinger, Transline, Reclaim,〔〔http://www.weedscience.com/summary/ChemFamilySum.asp?lstActive=&btnSub1=Go&lstHRAC=24&btnSub2=Go〕 Curtail, Confront, Clopyr AG, Lontrel, Millennium Ultra, Millenium Ultra Plus and Redeem. ==References== 〔 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「Clopyralid」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
