    Resistance risk: high; levels of resistant populations do not decline in the absence of fungicide use; to reduce the risk of resistance development, start treatments with a fungicide with a multi-site mode of action; rotate or mix fungicides with different mode-of-action FRAC numbers for subsequent applications, use labeled rates (preferably the upper range), and limit the total number of applications per season.

    ***Postharvest use on fruit only.

    Mode of action: FRAC1 Code 3; single-site inhibitors; inhibit demethylation and other processes in sterol biosynthesis; most are absorbed quickly and move up but not down in the plant; all have little effect on spore germination, but interfere with other early developmental processes; all inhibit mycelial growth and may stop lesions from sporulating; many have "kick-back" activity against brown rot, rust, perhaps scab, and apple and pear scab. Systemic action was determined in leaves of annual plants. The requisite tests using radioactive labeled compounds on flowers, fruit, and leaves of tree crops have not been conducted.

    Resistance risk: high

    Growth effects: inhibits mycelial growth

    Sporulation: suppresses

    Mode of action: FRAC1 Code 9; single-site, methionine biosynthesis inhibitor (protein disruption); has "kick-back" activity against apple and pear scab and stone fruit fungi.

    Resistance risk: high; to reduce the risk of resistance development start treatments with a fungicide with a multi-site mode of action; rotate or mix fungicides with different mode of action FRAC numbers for subsequent applications, use labeled rates (preferably the upper range), and limit the total number of applications per season.

    Growth effects: APs inhibits mycelial growth and suppresses spore germination. More effective in spring (lower temperatures) than summer (higher temperatures)

MULTIPLE ACTIVE INGREDIENTS IN PRE-MIXTURES

‡ Some of the active ingredients or products listed in this table may not be registered as pesticides or may have had their registration withdrawn. Check with your state pesticide regulatory agency to verify that applications are made in accordance with state and federal laws and regulations.

1 Code numbers are assigned by the Fungicide Resistance Action Committee (FRAC) according to different modes of actions (for more information, see http://www.frac.info/). Fungicides with a different Code number are suitable to alternate in a resistance management program. In California, make no more than one application of fungicides with mode-of-action Code numbers 1, 4, 9, 11, or 17 before rotating to a fungicide with a different mode-of-action Code number; for fungicides with other Code numbers, make no more than two consecutive applications before rotating to a fungicide with a different mode-of-action Code number.

    contact and systemic

    Mode of action: FRAC1 Codes 3 and 7; DMI single-site inhibitors (tebuconazole) target demethylation and other processes in sterol biosynthesis; whereas SDHI fungicides inhibit succinate dehydrogenase (fluopyram). Most DMI fungicides most are absorbed quickly and move up but not down in the plant; all have little effect on spore germination, but interfere with other early developmental processes; all inhibit mycelial growth and may stop lesions from sporulating; many have post-infection or "kick-back" activity against brown rot, rust, perhaps scab, and apple and pear scab.

    Resistance risk: medium to high; rating is a result of only partial overlap in the spectrum of activity of the two active ingredients. To reduce the risk of resistance development, start treatments with a fungicide with a multi-site mode of action; rotate or mix fungicides with different mode-of-action FRAC numbers for subsequent applications, use labeled rates (preferably the upper range), and limit the total number of applications per season.

    Growth effects: unknown for SDHI; DMI inhibits only mycelial growth

    Mode of action: FRAC1 Codes 7 and 9; Succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors possibly multi-site; whereas APs are single-site. The SDHI fungicides inhibit succinate dehydrogenase (boscalid, fluopyram, penthiopyrad, fluxopyroxad) whereas AP fungicides are possibly methionine inhibitors (e.g., pyrimethanil).

    Resistance risk: medium to high; rating is a result of only partial overlap in the spectrum of activity of the two active ingredients. To reduce the risk of resistance development, start treatments with a fungicide with a multi-site mode of action; rotate or mix fungicides with different mode-of-action FRAC numbers for subsequent applications, use labeled rates (preferably the upper range), and limit the total number of applications per season.

    Growth effects: SDHIs and APs inhibit mycelial growth

    Sporulation: APs have no effect; unknown for SDHI.

    contact and systemic

    Mode of action: FRAC1 Codes 7 and 11; Succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors possibly multi-site; whereas QoIs are single-site. The QoIs (pyraclostrobin, trifloxystrobin, picoxystrobin) block respiration by interfering with cytochrome b; SDHI fungicides inhibit succinate dehydrogenase (boscalid, fluopyram, penthiopyrad, fluxopyroxad).

    Resistance risk: medium to high; rating is a result of only partial overlap in the spectrum of activity of the two active ingredients. To reduce the risk of resistance development, start treatments with a fungicide with a multi-site mode of action; rotate or mix fungicides with different mode-of-action FRAC numbers for subsequent applications, use labeled rates (preferably the upper range), and limit the total number of applications per season.

    Growth effects: strobilurins inhibit spore germination; SDHIs inhibit mycelial growth.

    Sporulation: no effect for strobilurins; unknown for SDHI

    contact and systemic

    Mode of action: FRAC1 Codes 7 and 12; both single-site, Succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors possibly multi-site; phenylpyrroles (fludioxonil) interfere with regulatory enzymes of oxidation, osmoregulation, and possibly respiration.

    Resistance risk: medium to high

    Growth effects: both inhibit mycelial growth and germination

    Sporulation: reduction from fludioxonil, unknown from SDHI
