Abstract

Glyphosate salts and mixtures thereof are useful for the preparation of seed dressing, seed priming and seed coating herbicidal compositions for control of parasitic weeds such as Orobanche spp., Cuscuta spp., Striga spp. and Alectra spp., in glyphosate-resistant crop plants, e.g., vegetables, legumes or cereals that contain a gene encoding a modified 5-enolpyruvyl-3-phosphoshikimate (EPSP) synthase and/or produce enhanced amounts of EPSP synthase.
