Description

Picoxystrobin is a synthetic fungicide, belonging to the strobilurin chemical class, which is derived from naturally occurring compounds found in certain fungi. It functions by inhibiting mitochondrial respiration in fungal cells, specifically targeting the cytochrome bc1 complex in the electron transport chain. This mode of action disrupts energy production, effectively halting the growth and reproductive capabilities of pathogenic fungi.
