Fungicides

It is a systemic fungicide with protective action. It belongs to the triazola group. It is an ergosterol biosynthesis inhibitor. Ergosterol, a principal sterol in most fungi is an indispensable component in the membrane structures. It is transported acropetally (upwards) in the xylem.

It is a mesostemic (semi-systemic) fungicide with protective and curative action. It belongs to the oximinoacetate. The mode of action of Trifloxystrobin results in the inhibition of respiration in the mitochondria of target fungi. It interrupts electron flow by acting at the Qo center on cytochrome bc1 in the respiratory chain.
