Difference between Glyphosate and Pesticide

Glyphosate vs. Pesticide

Glyphosate (N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine) is a broad-spectrum systemic herbicide and crop desiccant. Pesticides are substances that are meant to control pests, including weeds.

Similarities between Glyphosate and Pesticide

Glyphosate and Pesticide have 18 things in common (in Unionpedia): Adsorption, Antimicrobial, Atrazine, Carcinogen, European Union, Food and Agriculture Organization, Genetic engineering, Genetically modified crops, Integrated pest management, Invasive species, Maize, Mutagen, Surfactant, United States, United States Environmental Protection Agency, Weed, World Health Organization, 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid.

Adsorption

Adsorption is the adhesion of atoms, ions or molecules from a gas, liquid or dissolved solid to a surface.

Invasive species

An invasive species is a species that is not native to a specific location (an introduced species), and that has a tendency to spread to a degree believed to cause damage to the environment, human economy or human health.

Mutagen

In genetics, a mutagen is a physical or chemical agent that changes the genetic material, usually DNA, of an organism and thus increases the frequency of mutations above the natural background level.
