INTRODUCTION: Cooper oxide FRAC GROUP M1 FUNGICIDES (multi-site contact activity) – Metalaxyl FRAC GROUP4 FUNGICIDES (RNA polymerase I) – Copper(I) oxide or cuprous oxide is the inorganic compound with the formulaCu2O. It is one of the principal oxides of copper, the other being or copper(II) oxide or cupric oxide (CuO). Cuprousoxide is a red-coloured solid and is a component of some antifouling paints. The compound can appear either yellow orred, depending on the size of the particles. Copper(I) oxide is found as the reddish mineral cuprite. – Metalaxyl Asystemic fungicide,it is active against phytopathogens of the order Peronosporales and is used to conrtrol Pythium in anumber of vegetable crops. It has a role as an agrochemical. – Metalaxyl is a natural product found in Ganodermalucidum with data available. (±)-Metalaxyl is a systemic agricultural fungicide belonging to the family of Depsipeptides.These are natural or synthetic compounds having sequences of amino and hydroxy carboxylic acid residues (usually I-amino and I-hydroxy acids), commonly but not necessarily regularly alternating – Metalaxyl is an acylalanine fungicidewith systemic function. Its chemical name is methyl N-(methoxyacetyl)-N-(2,6-xylyl)-DL- alaninate. It can be used tocontrol Pythium in a number of vegetable crops, and Phytophthora in peas. Metalaxyl-M is the ISO common name andRidomil Gold is the trade name for the optically pure (-) / D / R active stereoisomer, which is also known asmefenoxam. – Metalaxyl-M ((R)-Metalaxyl) is the active (R)-enantiomer of Metalaxyl. Metalaxyl-M is a broad-spectrumfungicide that inhibits protein and ribosomal RNA synthesis in fungi. Metalaxyl is used for research of plant diseasescaused by pathogens of the Oomycota division.
