Cypermethrin is very toxic to cats which cannot tolerate the therapeutic doses for dogs. [6] This is associated with UGT1A6 deficiency in cats, the enzyme responsible for metabolizing cypermethrin. As a consequence, cypermethrin remains much longer in the cat's organs than in dogs or other mammals and can be fatal in large doses.
Fludioxonil is a synthetic phenylpyrrole chemical introduced by Ciba-Geigy (now Syngenta) in 1993 for use as a non-systemic fungicide. It is a structural analog of the natural fungicide pyrrolnitrin. It is used for the treatment of crops, particularly cereals, fruits and vegetables, and ornamental plants.
The solubility of benzimidazole fungicides is low at physiological pH and becomes high at low pH. In plants, carbendazim, thiabendazole and fuberidazole are mobile, i.e. systemic, and benomyl and thiophanate-methyl are converted to carbendazim. [2] This conversion also occurs in soils and animals. [1]
This is a list of fungicides. These are chemical compounds which have been registered as agricultural fungicides . The names on the list are the ISO common name for the active ingredient which is formulated into the branded product sold to end-users. [ 1 ]
It is presumed that this disrupts the binding of the fungicide to the protein, rendering the fungicide ineffective. Upregulation of target genes can also render the fungicide ineffective. This is seen in DMI-resistant strains of Venturia inaequalis. [10] Resistance to fungicides can also be developed by efficient efflux of the fungicide out of ...
Standard fungicides are an effective way to manage powdery mildew disease on plants. [10] Spray programs of conventional fungicides are advised to begin when powdery mildew symptoms and signs are first noticed. [11] Conventional fungicides should be applied on a regular basis for best results against the disease. [11]
Copper pesticide is applied as a contact protective foliar spray, so it remains deposited on leaf surfaces. A small concentration of copper ions may be taken up by plants as essential nutrients. Copper foliar sprays are also applied to correct plant copper deficiency. [8] Excess absorbed copper ions can kill sensitive cells in copper sensitive ...
