Abstract
CGA 219417 (proposed common name: cyprodinil) is a pyrimidinamine currently being developed as a foliar fungicide for cereals, grapes, vegetable crops and deciduous fruit. It has a new mode of action and shows no cross-resistance to any current market product. On cereals, CGA 219417 exhibits a broad fungicidal spectrum with good activity against Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides, Erysiphe graminis, Pyrenophora teres, Rhynchosporium secalis and Septoria nodorum on ears. The strength of CGA 219417 on grapes, vegetable crops and strawberries is its excellent activity against Botrytis spp. On deciduous fruit the key target pathogen genera are Venturia, Alternaria and Monilinia spp. The fungicide has excellent safety for users, consumers and environment. In addition, its other characteristics, such as not being harmful to beneficial organisms, make it a promising product for flexible integrated disease-control practices.
