Cyazofamid is a fungicide belonging to the imidazolinone class, primarily used in agriculture to control oomycete pathogens, such as Phytophthora and Plasmopara species. Its mechanism of action involves inhibition of cytochrome bc1 complex (Complex III) in the mitochondrial electron transport chain, specifically targeting the Qi site of cytochrome b. This disruption in ATP synthesis impairs fungal energy metabolism, leading to effective disease control with high selectivity and minimal impact on non-target organisms.
