Translocated/systemic herbicides

Translocated/systemic herbicides move to the site of action via the transport mechanisms within the plant, the xylem and phloem. The xylem transports water and nutrients from the soil to growth sites and the phloem transports products of photosynthesis (for instance, sugars) to growth and storage sites. it may not be necessary to wet every part of the plant to kill. St also kills rhizomes and bulbs in the soil.
