High impact information on Kresoxim-Methyl

• Screening of grapes and wine for azoxystrobin, kresoxim-methyl and trifloxystrobin fungicides by HPLC with diode array detection [1].
• Residues of chlorpyrifos, cypermethrin, deltamethrin, diazinon, endosulfan, endosulfan sulfate, fenitrothion, fenpropathrin, iprodione, kresoxim-methyl, lambda-cyhalothrin, quinalphos, tolylfluanid and vinclozolin in the processed apples were analysed by gas chromatography [2].
• Boscalid (Filan 500 WG), dithianon (Delan 700 WG), and kresoxim-methyl (Stroby 500 WG) caused no significant 7-d mortality or fecundity reduction to G. occidentalis or E. victoriensis compared with controls, and are classified as harmless to both species [3].
• On the other hand, nuclear mutants containing disrupted chromosomal copies of the PDR1 and PDR3 genes or the PDR5 gene alone were hypersensitive to kresoxim-methyl, azoxystrobin and strobilurin A [4].
• Data also show that trifloxystrobin is not cross-resistant to anilinopyrimidines and triazoles, but is cross-resistant to kresoxim-methyl, another strobilurin which also inhibits the cytochrome bc1 enzyme complex at the Qo-site in the respiration chain of fungal mitochondria (QoI inhibitors) [5].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Kresoxim-Methyl

• The preliminary bioassays indicated that all the compounds 1 showed potent fungicidal activity against Rhizoctonia solani, Botrytis cinereapers, Gibberella zeae, Physalospora piricola and Bipolaris mayclis, and all of the tested compounds 1a-1o had more potent fungicidal activities against R. solani than Kresoxim-methyl [6].
