Penflufen is a pyrazole-based fungicide developed by Bayer, primarily used in seed treatments to control a range of fungal diseases. It functions as a succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor (SDHI), disrupting mitochondrial respiration in fungi by targeting the succinate dehydrogenase enzyme, which is crucial for their energy production . Penflufen is commonly applied to crops such as canola, soybeans, cotton, and cereals to protect against diseases like Rhizoctonia and Fusarium . It is often formulated in combination with other fungicides, such as trifloxystrobin, to enhance efficacy and provide broad-spectrum disease control .
