Mode of Action

Azoxystrobin

Azoxystrobin inhibits mitochondrial respiration in susceptible fungal pathogens, reducing their ability to produce the energy required for growth and infection. It is particularly useful as a preventive fungicidal component.

Difenoconazole

Difenoconazole is a systemic triazole fungicide that inhibits sterol biosynthesis required for normal fungal cell-membrane formation. It provides curative and protective activity against susceptible fungi.
