Halauxifen-methyl is a new auxin herbicide developed by Corteva Agriscience (Wilmington, DE, USA). It has been suggested that ABF5 may be the target of halauxifen-methyl, as AFB5 mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana are resistant to halauxifen-methyl, which preferentially binds to AFB5. However, the mode of action of halauxifen-methyl has not yet been reported. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to reveal the mode of action of halauxifen-methyl by exploring its influence on indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) homeostasis and the biosynthesis of ethylene and Abscisic Acid (ABA) in Galium aparine. The results showed that halauxifen-methyl could disrupt the homeostasis of IAA and stimulate the overproduction of ethylene and ABA by inducing the overexpression of the 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate synthase (ACS) and 9-cis-epoxycarotenoid dioxygenase (NCED) genes involved in ethylene and ABA biosynthesis, finally leading to senescence and plant death.
