Mode of Action
Understanding the mechanism of VINTAGE
Metalaxyl inhibits RNA polymerase activity in oomycete pathogens, providing systemic and curative control by preventing fungal growth and reproduction. Mancozeb acts as a multi-site contact fungicide, disrupting several enzymatic processes in fungal cells. Together, they offer broad-spectrum preventive and curative protection while reducing the risk of resistance development.
