Mode of Action
Fludioxonil is a broad-spectrum fungicide which is non-systemic with a long residual activity. The mode of action of fludioxonil is the inhibition of transport-associated phosphorylation of glucose as well as preventing glycerol synthesis. Being broad spectrum, fludioxonil is effective against most major post-harvest diseases. In post-harvest situations it is effective against Grey mold, Black Spot, storage rot and Powdery Mildew. The residual component in Fludioxonil, inhibits spore germination and growth of the germ tube.
