SCIENCE

Mode of Action

Understanding the mechanism of HERAXYL

Disease Control Mechanism

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common queries about HERAXYL insecticide

Metalaxyl inhibits RNA polymerase I in oomycete pathogens, blocking ribosomal RNA synthesis and halting mycelial growth. It is absorbed systemically from treated seeds and protects emerging radicles and hypocotyls, helping prevent seedling diseases caused by oomycete pathogens.

A: Heranba HERAXYL is generally compatible with most insecticides and fungicides, but it should not be mixed with alkaline compounds, sulphur, and copper-based fungicides. Always perform a small-scale jar compatibility test before preparing a tank mix.

Heranba HERAXYL can be used on maize, bajra, sorghum, sunflower, and mustard to protect against the diseases listed in the dosage recommendations.

Apply Heranba HERAXYL at the recommended dosage according to the crop. Refer to the dosage table for the appropriate seed treatment rate. It ensures healthy seedling establishment, reduces damping-off losses, and provides long-lasting protection from seed-borne diseases.
