Prosulfuron is a fluorinated sulfonylurea herbicide that primarily targets acetolactate synthase (ALS), inhibiting the biosynthesis of branched-chain amino acids such as valine, leucine, and isoleucine in plants. This mechanism effectively suppresses the growth of certain weed species. Due to its low toxicity to humans and mammals, prosulfuron is utilized in research focused on broadleaf weed control in agricultural practices, particularly in maize and sweet corn. Additionally, it may influence the balance of soil microbial communities in alkaline conditions, highlighting its potential environmental impact.
