- Picoxystrobin a strobilurin fungicide inhibits mitochondrial respiration. Bind at the Qo centre on cytochrome b and block electron transfer between cytochrome b and cytochrome c1. This disrupts the energy cycle within the fungus by halting production of ATP
- Tricyclazole belongs to group of melanin biosynthesis inhibitor. It inhibits of melanin formation in fungi. It is a systemic fungicide that gets rapidly absorbed and translocated all over the plants. It is a specialty systemic fungicide. The productis rapidly absorbed by rice plant and translocated towards leaf tips. It is a protectant fungicide that prevents the fungus from penetrating the plant. Inhibition occurs when the fungus attempts to penetrate and establish an infection site inside the plant.
- Tricyclazole treated spores are unable to penetrate as it cannot synthesize melanin and by doing so cannot generate enough turgor pressure to rupture host cuticle. Tricyclazole also inhibits the spore formation and release from sporophores. Spores formed are also less virulent.
