Zytron, also known as DMPA, is a chlorophenoxy herbicide.[1] It controls crabgrass and other weeds in turf preëmergently, and ants, chinch bugs and grubs.[2] It is used on baseball pitches in Australia.[3]

Zytron inhibits microtubule assembly, preventing mitosis. making it a Group 3 / D / K1, similar to dinitroanilines like trifluralin.[4] It was tested and commercially available in the US in 1959, and applied at 10-20 lbs per acre on turf,[5] a high rate compared to other herbicides.

Zytron disappears almost completely from the body within one hour of mammalian exposure.[2] It does not accumulate in soil and is non-harmful to microflora.[6] DMPA has in testing been applied at rates as high as 67 lbs per acre.[7]

Zytron may cause neurotoxicity in chickens. It is an organophosphorus ester, and other such chemicals are known to cause similar neurotoxicity. 100 mg/kg daily for 10 days was considered the minimum effective dose to observably alter hens' behaviour.[8]

Zytron has been sold under the tradenames "Dow Crabgrass Killer", "Dow 1329", "Dowco 118" and "T-H Crabgrass Killer."[9][10]
