3. Key Ingredients and Mode of Action
1. Penflufen
Penflufen belongs to the SDHI (succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors) group. It inhibits fungal respiration, thereby preventing cell energy production in the pathogen. It is particularly effective against Rhizoctonia and other soil-borne fungi. Penflufen is a novel pyrazole fungicide with SDHI (Succinate Dehydrogenase Inhibitor) mode of action. It targets the succinate dehydrogenase, one of the enzymes in the respiratory chain within the mitochondria of the fungus.
2. Trifloxystrobin
A strobilurin fungicide known for its translaminar and vapor activity. It disrupts mitochondrial respiration in fungal cells, effectively stopping their growth and reproduction. Trifloxystrobin is Qo inhibitor fungicide (QoI). It interferes with respiration in plant pathogenic fungi.
3. Metalaxyl
A systemic fungicide belonging to the phenylamide group. It offers protective and curative action, especially against Oomycetes like Pythium and Phytophthora.
Together, these ingredients create a robust line of defense against a wide range of pathogens, improving seedling vigor and crop establishment.
