Abstract
Weed resistance is a critical issue in crop production. Among the known herbicides, 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) inhibitors are crucial for addressing weed resistance. HPPD inhibitors constitute a pivotal aspect of contemporary crop protection strategies. The advantages of these herbicides are their broad weed spectrum, flexible application, and excellent compatibility with other herbicides. They also exhibit satisfactory crop selectivity and low toxicity and are environmentally friendly. An increasing number of new HPPD inhibitors have been designed by combining computer-aided drug design with conventional design approaches. Herein, the molecular design and structural features of innovative HPPD inhibitors are reviewed to guide the development of new HPPD inhibitors possessing an enhanced biological efficacy.

PESTICIDE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2023; 192:105390.

Abstract
4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (EC 1.13.11.27, HPPD, a Fe(II)/α-ketoglutarate dependent oxygenases), is a popular herbicide target. In this work, two pharmacophore models based on common molecular characteristics (HipHop) and receptor-ligand complex (CBP) were generated for virtual screening for HPPD inhibitors. About 1,000,000 molecules containing diketone structure from PubChem were filtered by Lipinski's rules to build a 3D database. Then the database was screened through combining HipHop model, CBP model, ADMET (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity) prediction and molecular docking. Subsequently, based on the specific binding mode and affinity of HPPD inhibitors, 4 molecules with high -CDOCKER energy, good aqueous solubility and human safety predicative properties values were screened. From the screening results and combined with previous work, three novel HPPD inhibitors were designed and synthesized through fragment splicing and bioisosterism strategies. Compound IV-a exhibited similar inhibition of Arabidopsis thaliana HPPD (AtHPPD) and herbicidal activity as mesotrione. Crop selectivity showed that compound IV-a had better crop safety than mesotrione. Comparing the molecular properties, ADMET and molecular docking studies indicated that compounds IV-a exhibited better properties than mesotrione, which could be further modified as novel HPPD inhibitor herbicides.

Abstract
Due to their ability to form extremely heat resistant spores, anaerobic bacteria are responsible for frequent food spoilage. The development of rapid and specific methods for the detection and quantification of spore contamination is therefore of major interest. In this paper, we describe for the first time the selection of aptamers specific to spores of Geobacillus stearothermophilus (Gbs), which induce flat sour spoilage in vegetable cans. Eighteen Spore-SELEX cycles were performed including 4 counter-selections with 12 bacteria commonly found in cannery. To optimise candidate amplification, PCR in emulsion was performed, and high-throughput sequencing analysis was applied to follow candidate evolution. Sequencing of aptamers from cycle 18 revealed 43 overrepresented sequences whose copy number exceeds 0.15% of the total obtained sequences. Within this group, the A01 aptamer presented a much higher enrichment with a relative abundance of 17.71%. Affinity and specificity for Gbs spores of the 10 most abundant candidates at cycle 18 were confirmed by PCR assay based on aptamer-spore complex formation and filtration step. Obtaining these aptamers is the starting point for the future development of biosensors dedicated to the detection of Gbs spores.

Abstract
Stable, water-soluble titanium complexed with mandelic acid was used as a precursor for titanium phosphorus double oxide obtained in hydrothermal conditions in the presence of phosphoric acid. Surprisingly, hydrolysis of organic complexes provided a microstructured sphere with narrow size distribution, low aggregation and a small fraction of morphological irregularities. Obtained microspheres had a complex structure comprised of flakes, whose size could be manipulated with temperature conditions. Samples were found to be electrochemically active against sulcotrione, a well-recognized herbicide. Electrochemical sensors based on the synthesized microspheres were successfully adapted for natural water reservoir analysis and exhibited low levels of detection of 0.61 µM, limit of quantification of 1.86 µM, wide dynamic linear range from 2 to 200 µM, good selectivity, excellent reproducibility and in-time stability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND 4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD), playing a critical role in vitamin E and plastoquinone biosynthesis in plants, has been recognized as one of the most important targets for herbicide discovery for over 30 years. Structure-based rational design of HPPD inhibitors has received more and more research interest. However, a critical challenge in the discovery of new HPPD inhibitors is the common inconsistency between molecular-level HPPD-based bioevaluation and the weed control efficiency in fields, due to the unpredictable biological processes of absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. RESULTS In this study, we developed a fluorescent-sensing platform of efficient in vivo screening for HPPD-targeted herbicide discovery. The refined sensor has good capability of in situ real-time fluorescence imaging of HPPD in living cells and zebrafish. More importantly, it enabled the direct visible monitoring of HPPD inhibition in plants in a real-time manner. CONCLUSION We developed a highly efficient in vivo fluorescent screening method for HPPD-targeted herbicide discovery. This discovery not only offers a promising tool to advance HPPD-targeted herbicide discovery, but it also demonstrates a general path to develop the highly efficient, target-based, in vivo screening for pesticide discovery. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Isoxazole, nicotinic acid and benzoic acid are important components in many natural products and useful synthons to build macrostructures having valuable biological activities. In continuation of our effort to discover 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD, EC 1.13.11.27) inhibitors and search for active fragments from natural products, a series of substituted aryl-formyl piperidinone derivatives with natural product fragments was rationally designed, synthesized and tested for their herbicidal activity. Compound I-9 was considered the most effective candidate with an IC50 value of 0.260 μM. The molecular docking results showed that the triketone group of compound I-9 forms a bidentate complex with a metal ion, and the benzene ring interacted with Phe424 and Phe381 via π-π stacking, which was similar to the mechanisms of mesotrione. The present work indicates that compound I-9 may serve as a potential lead compound for further development of green HPPD inhibitors.

Abstract
Tsetse transmit African trypanosomiasis, which is a disease fatal to both humans and animals. A vaccine to protect against this disease does not exist so transmission control relies on eliminating tsetse populations. Although neurotoxic insecticides are the gold standard for insect control, they negatively impact the environment and reduce populations of insect pollinator species. Here we present a promising, environment-friendly alternative to current insecticides that targets the insect tyrosine metabolism pathway. A bloodmeal contains high levels of tyrosine, which is toxic to haematophagous insects if it is not degraded and eliminated. RNA interference (RNAi) of either the first two enzymes in the tyrosine degradation pathway (tyrosine aminotransferase (TAT) and 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD)) was lethal to tsetse. Furthermore, nitisinone (NTBC), an FDA-approved tyrosine catabolism inhibitor, killed tsetse regardless if the drug was orally or topically applied. However, oral administration of NTBC to bumblebees did not affect their survival. Using a novel mathematical model, we show that NTBC could reduce the transmission of African trypanosomiasis in sub-Saharan Africa, thus accelerating current disease elimination programmes.

Abstract
4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD, EC 1.13.11.27) is an important target site for discovering new bleaching herbicides. To explore novel HPPD inhibitors with excellent herbicidal activity, a series of novel N-aroyl diketone/triketone derivatives were rationally designed by splicing active groups and bioisosterism. Bioassays revealed that most of these derivatives displayed preferable herbicidal activity against Echinochloa crus-galli (EC) at 0.045 mmol/m2 and Abutilon juncea (AJ) at 0.090 mmol/m2. In particular, compound I-f was more potent compared to the commercialized compound mesotrione. Molecular docking indicated that the corresponding active molecules of target compounds and mesotrione shared similar interplay with surrounding residues, which led to a perfect interaction with the active site of Arabidopsis thaliana HPPD.

Abstract
The intensive use of toxic and remanent pesticides in agriculture has prompted research into novel performant, yet cost-effective and fast analytical tools to control the pesticide residue levels in the environment and food. In this context, biosensors based on enzyme inhibition have been proposed as adequate analytical devices with the added advantage of using the toxicity of pesticides for detection purposes, being more "biologically relevant" than standard chromatographic methods. This review proposes an overview of recent advances in the development of biosensors exploiting the inhibition of cholinesterases, photosynthetic system II, alkaline phosphatase, cytochrome P450A1, peroxidase, tyrosinase, laccase, urease, and aldehyde dehydrogenase. While various strategies have been employed to detect pesticides from different classes (organophosphates, carbamates, dithiocarbamates, triazines, phenylureas, diazines, or phenols), the number of practical applications and the variety of environmental and food samples tested remains limited. Recent advances focus on enhancing the sensitivity and selectivity by using nanomaterials in the sensor assembly and novel mutant enzymes in array-type sensor formats in combination with chemometric methods for data analysis. The progress in the development of solar cells enriched the possibilities for efficient wiring of photosynthetic enzymes on different surfaces, opening new avenues for development of biosensors for photosynthesis-inhibiting herbicides.

Abstract
Despite increasing knowledge of allelochemicals as leads for new herbicides, relatively little is known about the mode of action of allelochemical-based herbicides on herbicide-resistant weeds. In this study, herbicidal activities of a series of allelochemical tricin-derived compounds were evaluated. Subsequently, a benzothiazine derivative 3-(2-chloro-4-methanesulfonyl)-benzoyl-hydroxy-2-methyl-2H-1,2-benzothiazine-1,1-dioxide with 4-hydroxyphenyl-pyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) inhibiting activity was identified as a target compound on photosynthetic performance of penoxsulam-resistant versus -susceptible barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crus-galli). Regardless of barnyardgrass biotype, the benzothiazine derivative greatly affected chlorophyll fluorescence parameters (Fv/Fm, ETR1min and NPQ1min), reduced the chloroplast fluorescence levels and expression of HPPD gene. In particular, the benzothiazine derivative interfered with photosynthetic performance of resistant barnyardgrass more effectively than the allelochemical tricin itself. These results showed that the benzothiazine derivative effectively inhibited the growth of resistant barnyardgrass and its mode of action on photosynthesis system was similar to HPPD-inhibiting sulcotrione, making it an ideal lead compound for further development of allelochemical-based herbicide discovery.

Abstract
Triketones, derived chemically from a natural phytotoxin (leptospermone), are a good example of allelochemicals as lead molecules for the development of new herbicides. Targeting a new and key enzyme involved in carotenoid biosynthesis, these latest-generation herbicides (sulcotrione, mesotrione and tembotrione) were designed to be eco-friendly and commercialized fifteen-twenty years ago. The mechanisms controlling their fate in different ecological niches as well as their toxicity and impact on different organisms or ecosystems are still under investigation. This review combines an overview of the results published in the literature on β-triketones and more specifically, on the commercially-available herbicides and includes new results obtained in our interdisciplinary study aiming to understand all the processes involved (i) in their transfer from the soil to the connected aquatic compartments, (ii) in their transformation by photochemical and biological mechanisms but also to evaluate (iii) the impacts of the parent molecules and their transformation products on various target and non-target organisms (aquatic microorganisms, plants, soil microbial communities). Analysis of all the data on the fate and impact of these molecules, used pure, as formulation or in cocktails, give an overall guide for the assessment of their environmental risks.

Abstract
4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (EC 1.13.11.27, HPPD) is an important target for new bleaching herbicides discovery. As a continuous work to discover novel crop selective HPPD inhibitor, a series of 2-(aryloxyacetyl)cyclohexane-1,3-diones were rationally designed and synthesized by an efficient one-pot procedure using N,N'-carbonyldiimidazole (CDI), triethylamine, and acetone cyanohydrin in CH2Cl2. A total of 58 triketone compounds were synthesized in good to excellent yields. Some of the triketones displayed potent in vitro Arabidopsis thaliana HPPD (AtHPPD) inhibitory activity. 2-(2-((1-Bromonaphthalen-2-yl)oxy)acetyl)-3-hydroxycyclohex-2-en-1-one, II-13, displayed high, broad-spectrum, and postemergent herbicidal activity at the dosage of 37.5-150 g ai/ha, nearly as potent as mesotrione against some weeds. Furthermore, II-13 showed good crop safety against maize and canola at the rate of 150 g ai/ha, indicating that II-13 might have potential as a herbicide for weed control in maize and canola fields. II-13 is the first HPPD inhibitor showing good crop safety toward canola.
