Inhibition of saturated very-long-chain fatty acid biosynthesis by mefluidide and perfluidone, selective inhibitors of 3-ketoacyl-CoA synthases.

Phytochemistry 76 , 162-71, (2012)

The trifluoromethanesulphonanilides mefluidide and perfluidone are used in agriculture as plant growth regulators and herbicides. Despite the fact that mefluidide and perfluidone have been investigated experimentally for decades, their mode of action is still...

Mefluidide treatment of tall fescue pastures: intake and animal performance.

J. Anim. Sci. 68(10) , 3399-405, (1990)

Twelve Hereford heifers were used in a grazing experiment to determine intake and digestibility of tall fescue forage treated with the plant growth regulator mefluidide. Additionally, steer and heifer performance were evaluated after grazing tall fescue pastu...

Fate of the plant growth regulator mefluidide [N-[2,4-dimethyl-5-[[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]amino]phenyl]acetamide] in a cow and sheep.

J. Agric. Food Chem. 28(6) , 1286-8, (1980)

Residues of the plant growth regulator mefluidide [N-[2,4]dimethy-5-[[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]amino]phenyl]acetamide] in the milk and tissues of lactating dairy cows: a 28-day feeding study.

J. Agric. Food Chem. 29(6) , 1175-9, (1981)

Mefluidide effects on smooth brome composition and grazing cow-calf performance.

J. Anim. Sci. 63(4) , 1054-62, (1986)

Mefluidide, a plant growth regulator, was evaluated in two cow-calf grazing trials and one herbage trial on smooth brome (Bromus inermis) pastures stocked at recommended densities in eastern Nebraska. Mefluidide-treated pasture increased cow and calf producti...

Mefluidide treatment of tall fescue pastures: forage quality.

J. Anim. Sci. 68(10) , 3406-11, (1990)

Spring application of a plant growth regulator, mefluidide, to tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) pastures grazed from May to September reduced (P less than .05) available DM and digestible OM per hectare by 51 and 41%, respectively, compared to untrea...
