This information is supplied with the understanding that no discrimination is intended and no endorsement implied. Due to constantly changing regulations, we assume no liability for suggestions. If any information in these tables is inconsistent with the label, follow the label. Always follow label instructions regarding registered uses and note cautions. To avoid any phytotoxicity problems, spot test first before widespread use.

10 * Fungicides are grouped by their mode of action (MoA) and each MoA group is assigned a Fungicide Resistance Action Committee (FRAC) code. Most systemic fungicides (that are absorbed into plant tissues) are specific in their mode of action. Protectant fungicides are less likely to develop resistance problems as they have multi-site modes of action (M). To prevent the development of resistance, alternative applications among different FRAC codes and incorporate biological fungicides into your disease management plan.
