Removed this bit as it doesn't make any sense without explanation of what e.g. "fops" and "dims" are - if anyone can clarify this, please restore it:
These weeds are controlled by herbicides inhibitors of ACCase (affect lipid synth., i.e. fops and dims herbicides) and inhibitors of ALS (affect branched chain aminoacid synt., i.e. sulfonylureas).

- Fops and dims are two types of group A herbicides, which, as stated, inhibit ACCase. Fops are aryloxyphenoxypropinoates and dims are cyclohexanediones. As they're group A herbicides they have a high risk of resistance being developed to them. Probably not particularly relevant. Halften 06:56, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
