NEW FUNGICIDE SEED TREATMENTS FOR COTTON FROM BAYER CROPSCIENCE

摘要

Bayer CropScience has two new fungicide seed treatments, Trilex FL and Vortex FL for cotton. Each of the fungicides is excellent for controlling seedling disease caused by Rhizoctonia solani. In addition to the activity against Rhizoctonia solani, Trilex FL has very good activity against many of the “junk” fungi known as seedborne problems on cottonseed. Vortex FL is systemic in movement and has a broad spectrum of activity against a wide range of fungi belonging to the classes of Zygomycetes, Ascomycetes, Basidomycetes and Deuteromycetes. Vortex FL is extremely efficacious against the seedling stage of disease caused by Fusarium solani. The addition of Trilex FL and Vortex FL to the seed supplies improved disease protection at low use rates withexcellent seed safety characteristics.
