Mode of Action
Understanding the mechanism of HERAXYL
Metalaxyl inhibits RNA polymerase I in oomycete pathogens, blocking ribosomal RNA synthesis and halting mycelial growth. Its systemic uptake from treated seeds provides protection to emerging radicles and hypocotyls. This helps protect seedlings from seed- and soil-borne oomycete diseases during early crop establishment.
