Iprodione

Type: Fungicide

Mode of Action: Inhibiting the germination of fungal spores and disrupting the development of fungal cell walls

Common Product Names: Chipco 26019 & 26 GT

What is it?

Iprodione is a member of the dicarboximide class of fungicides. It is a contact fungicide, meaning it must come into direct contact with the fungus to be effective. This fungicide is typically applied as a foliar spray, soil drench, or seed treatment, depending on the type of crop and the specific disease being targeted. Iprodione is valued for its ability to provide both curative and preventative control of fungal diseases.

How does it work?

Iprodione works by inhibiting the growth and reproduction of fungi at multiple stages of their lifecycle. Specifically, it interferes with the synthesis of RNA and proteins in fungi, which are critical for their growth and reproduction. When applied to crops, it:

  1. Prevents fungal spores from germinating.
  2. Inhibits the development of fungal mycelium, the vegetative part of a fungus.
  3. Disrupts the synthesis of critical proteins and RNA within the fungal cells, leading to their eventual death.

Benefits

  • Curative and preventative action: Can be used to both prevent fungal infections and cure existing ones.
  • Rapid results: Fungal activity is typically halted within a few days of application.
