Mode of Action

Metalaxyl is a systemic fungicide rapidly absorbed by roots and leaves. It moves upward in the xylem and inhibits RNA synthesis in Oomycete fungi, blocking growth and reproduction from inside the plant. Mancozeb is a multi-site contact fungicide that forms a protective film on the leaf surface and inactivates fungal enzymes, preventing spore germination. Together they deliver internal cure plus external shield  covering the full disease cycle of late blight, downy mildew, and phytophthora pathogens.
