[C][C][O][P][=Branch1][C][=O][Branch1][=Branch1][C][=Branch1][C][=O][N][O]"}, {"from": "gpt", "value": "The molecule is an organophosphate herbicide. Used as a foliar spray for control and/or growth suppression of many woody plant species such as maple, birch, alder, blackberry, vine maple, ash, and oak. Susceptible treated plants normally fail to refoliate during the growing season following treatment and subsequently die. Fosamine functions as a plant growth regulator. It is sometimes referred to as a \u201cdormancy enforcer,\u201d but its specific mechanism of action has not been identified. There is some evidence that it inhibits mitosis in susceptible plants."}]
