Products such as copper belong to Group Y, and have multisite activity. It interferes with several ofthe (fungus) vital life functions. For this reason resistance is less likely to develop. Copper oxychloride is aprotectant fungicidebactericide which prevents infection on plants. Its mode of action is by interfering with theenzyme system of spores and mycelium, a process which is usually irreversible. It forms a chemical barrier againstfungal attack and is a foliar fungicide with preventative action. Deposits must be on the crop before fungal sporesbegin to germinate. Wettable powder containing copper oxychloride equivalent to copper content 50% balancewetting, dispersing and suspending agents and inert carriers. Copper oxychloride is a contact fungicide effectiveagainst a wide range of plant diseases, such as leaf spot, fruit rot, bud rot, canker, blights, koleroga, downy mildewand red rust on crops like arecanut, coconut, banana, citrus, chillies, cardamom, coffee, tobacco, tomato, potato, paddy and grap

Sulfosulfuron inhibits acetolactate synthase (ALS), also called acetohydroxyacid synthase(AHAS), a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of the branched-chain amino acids isoleucine, leucine, and valine. Plant death results from events occurring in response to ALS inhibition and low branched-chain amino acid production, but the actual sequence of phytotoxic processes is unclear. Sulfosulfuron is a selective early emergence herbicide used for the effective control of Phalaris minor in wheat crop.
