Abstract: | Background, aim and scope The ergosterol biosynthesis-inhibiting (EBI) fungicide prochloraz can enhance the effect of other pesticides in a range of
animal species. Approximately 50% of the fungicides used in Denmark are EBI fungicides. Hence, if they all have synergising
potential, a risk assessment of pesticide mixtures based on additivity might not suffice. This study investigates the synergising
potential of six different EBI fungicides representing the imidazoles (prochloraz), the triazoles (epoxiconazole, propiconazole
and tebuconazole), the piperidines (fenpropidin) and the morpholines (fenpropimorph) together with the pyrethroid insecticide
alpha-cypermethrin. |
