Difenoconazole

Description

Difenoconazole is a kind of triazole-type fungicide. It is a broad-spectrum triazole fungicide. It takes effect through acting as the inhibitor of sterol 14α-demethylase, blocking the biosynthesis of sterol. Through inhibiting the sterol biosynthesis process, it inhibits the mycelia growth and germination of pathogens by spores, ultimately suppressing the proliferation of fungi. Difenoconazole has been extensively used in a wide range of crops in many countries due to its ability to control various fungal diseases. It is also one of the most important and widely-used pesticides for disease control in rice.
