MedKoo Cat#: 146252 | Name: Hymexazol

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Hymexazol is a systemic fungicide and soil disinfectant commonly used to control soil-borne fungal diseases such as damping-off, root rot, and seedling blight, especially in crops like sugar beets and rice. It is often applied as a seed treatment or soil drench. The compound works by inhibiting RNA synthesis in pathogenic fungi, disrupting their growth and reproduction. Hymexazol is valued for its rapid uptake and protective action against Pythium, Fusarium, and other harmful fungi in early plant development stages.
