Glyphosate is absorbed by plant foliage and translocated throughout the plant, including the roots. It is a systemic herbicide, meaning it moves within the plant's vascular system, reaching even underground parts. Glyphosate disrupts the synthesis of essential amino acids, causing the plant to wither and...

Paraquat acts quickly upon contact with plant foliage, causing rapid cell damage and desiccation. It disrupts the photosynthetic electron transport chain in chloroplasts, leading to the production of toxic free radicals and ultimately cell death. Paraquat is a non-systemic herbicide, meaning it does not translocate...
