ActivityFungicide
Fluquinconazole is absorbed mainly through foliage. The product moves systemically through the xylem and through leaf tissue: this property explains the efficacy of fluquinconazole against endophytic organisms such as Septoria spp and rusts. It can be used as a protectant or a curative treatment. The product is rainfast within ten minutes and has residual activity lasting more than 40 days. Fluquinconazole has shown no phytotoxicity to foliage and fruit in orchards and is safe to beneficial insects. The selectivity in wheat when applied as seed treatment is good.
In field trials, fluquinconazole gave better or equal control of a range of diseases than established products. Phytoma (December 1997) reported that AgrEvo conducted field trials with fluquinconazole-treated wheat seed that gave very encouraging results. Later reports (Phytoma, November, 1999, BCPC, 2000) provide evidence that fluquinconazole seed treatments can provide protection against take-all (Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici) in wheat. This action is attributed to a number of effects including increase in root diameter and vigour, a change in root morphology which increase resistance to attack by the pathogen, direct effects on hyphal development and stimulation of growth of antagonistic organisms such as Pseudomonas fluorescens.
The protective effect is less pronounced in barley. There is evidence that fluquinconazole can exert a significant residual effect in the control of take-all so that disease incidence is reduced in following crops.
For seed treatment applications in wheat, control of diseases caused by Fusarium spp is achieved by addition of a partner such as prochloraz
Aventis developed a new formulation of Flamenco, now launched in France, containing the adjuvant Maximiser. The addition of this adjuvant is reported to give faster action without adverse effect on the efficacy, flexibility or persistence. -
