FunInAca
Description
A contact fungicide and acaricide belonging to the quinoxaline group, historically used for the preventative control of powdery mildew and certain phytophagous mites in fruit trees, vineyards, vegetables, and ornamentals. It acts by interfering with essential metabolic processes related to cellular respiration and energy production in susceptible fungi and mites. Its action is primarily superficial and preventative, particularly affecting spore germination and initial mycelial development. It also exerts activity on different mobile stages of some mites by altering physiological and metabolic functions.
Application Conditions
It was applied as a preventative foliar spray, ensuring uniform and complete coverage of the plant surface, especially the undersides of the leaves where mites and fungal structures may be found. As it is a contact product, it had to be applied before or at the beginning of the infection or infestation to guarantee effectiveness. It was recommended to alternate it with products with different modes of action within integrated pest management programs and resistance control strategies.
Compatibility in Treatment Programs
Historically compatible with fungicides and acaricides used in IPM programs
Cross-Resistance
Not widely documented
Maximum Number of Applications
According to historical conditions of authorized labeling
Recommendations for Use
Historically recommended in alternation with fungicides and acaricides of different modes of action
Compatibility with Beneficial Organisms
It may partially affect some beneficial arthropods depending on the dose and application conditions.
Technical Notes
Chinomethionate, also known as quinomethionate, was historically notable for its dual fungicidal and acaricidal activity, especially against powdery mildew and certain phytophagous mites. Its use has declined considerably, and in many countries it has been restricted or withdrawn due to toxicological and environmental concerns.
