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.
