Pydiflumetofen

Type: Fungicide

Mode of Action: Inhibiting the succinate dehydrogenase enzyme (SDHI) within fungal cells

Common Product Names: Miravis & Posterity

What is it?

Pydiflumetofen is known for its broad-spectrum activity against a variety of fungal pathogens. It provides both curative and preventative treatment and is effective in controlling diseases such as powdery mildew, leaf spots, rusts, and blights. Its chemical structure and formulation make it a versatile tool in integrated pest management (IPM) programs, allowing it to be used alone or in combination with other fungicides to enhance efficacy and manage resistance.

How does it work?

Pydiflumetofen's inhibition of the SDHI enzyme means that treated fungi are unable to produce the energy necessary for growth and reproduction. This leads to the eventual death of the fungal cells. One of the key features of Pydiflumetofen is its translaminar movement, allowing it to move across the leaf surface and provide protection on both sides. Additionally, it has systemic properties, enabling it to move within the plant tissues and protect new growth.

Benefits

  • Curative and Preventative Action: Pydiflumetofen is both curative and preventative, making it a versatile option for managing existing infections and protecting against new ones. It can be applied before the onset of disease or at the first sign of symptoms, providing flexibility in application timing.
  • Residual Control: This fungicide provides long-lasting protection, reducing the need for frequent applications. This residual activity helps in maintaining disease control over extended periods, making it cost-effective and labor-saving.
  • Resistance Management: As part of an integrated pest management (IPM) program, Pydiflumetofen can be used in rotation with other fungicides to help manage and delay the development of resistance in fungal populations.
