- Systemic, ergosterol-biosynthesis-inhibiting mode of action
Difenoconazole is a triazole (DMI) fungicide that inhibits ergosterol biosynthesis by blocking the 14α-demethylase enzyme, which is required for fungal cell membrane formation. This disrupts membrane integrity and halts fungal growth. Difenoconazole is systemic and is classified under FRAC Group 3 (DMI fungicides).
Securr (Difenoconazole 25% EC) is diluted in the recommended volume of water and applied as a foliar spray in rice, using standard knapsack or boom sprayers, following the approved product label.
