Oxathiapiprolin

Type: Fungicide

Mode of Action: Inhibiting the oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP)

Common Product Names: Orondis

What is it?

Oxathiapiprolin is a novel fungicide known for its high efficacy against oomycete pathogens, which cause devastating diseases such as downy mildew and late blight. It is a systemic fungicide, meaning it is absorbed by the plant and translocated throughout its tissues, providing comprehensive protection.

How does it work?

Oxathiapiprolin targets the OSBP in fungi, a crucial protein involved in lipid transfer and membrane formation. By inhibiting this protein, Oxathiapiprolin effectively halts the growth and spread of the fungus. This unique mode of action not only curbs the current infection but also prevents the development of resistance, making it a valuable tool in integrated pest management strategies.

Benefits

  • Preventative Action: Oxathiapiprolin is primarily a preventative fungicide, offering protection before the onset of disease.
  • Rapid Results: Initial effects can be seen within days of application, with full protection developing over a week.
  • Long-Lasting Residual Control: Provides extended protection, reducing the need for frequent applications.
  • Systemic Protection: As a systemic fungicide, it is absorbed and translocated within the plant, ensuring thorough coverage.
