Mestizo 45.25 SE

MESTIZO 45.25 SE is a fungicide with both preventive and curative action whose active ingredients are fludioxinil and tea tree extract (Melaleuca alternifolia) and fludioxonil formulated as a supoemulsion. The narrow-leaved tea tree is a species of shrub in the Mirtaceae family. Native to Australia, it grows in swampy terrain on the north coast of New South Wales.

Many plant species produce essential oils which play an important role in host defense mechanisms against phytopathogens (Mihaliak, et al., 1991). It has been shown that essential oils and their compounds have a fungicidal effect (Wilson, et al., 1997; Shemes & Mayo, 1991).

• FLUDIOXONIL 23.0 %
• Tea tree oil (Melaleuca Alternifolia) 22.25 %

INTERVAL BETWEEN LAST APPLICATION AND HARVEST (WAITING PERIOD)

24 h.

MAXIMUM NUMBER OF TREATMENTS

Without restriction․

When the first symptoms of infection appear, for curative applications, apply at maximum doses with intervals of 5-7 days.

Regulate the pH. 

The effectivenes of treatments are provided by a complete follage wettiness and use of adjuvant.

MESTIZO 45.25 SE acts preventively and curatively, by inhibiting the development of spore germination, inhibiting the growth of mycelium and expansive lesion; produces inhibition in the production of sporangia, through suppression and eradication of colonies of pathogens present in the fruits and leaves. Tea tree extract is effective against a broad spectrum of pathogens of various horticultural, field and fruit crops, without causing phytotoxic effects (Reuveni et al., 2006).

The contact and penetrating mode of action of MESTIZO 45.25 SE inhibits secondary contamination of the fungus to other healthy organs since it stops the growth and germination of the spores of the fungus in addition to breaking the cell wall of the fungus, causing a spill of the cytosol without affecting it. negative to culture cells. The product penetrates the mesophyll of the crop leaf through the cuticle and once inside it prevents and stops the progression of the disease, making it a highly effective product. It exercises its preventive action (protecting the crop before contracting the disease) and curative action (preventing the development of the pathogen) even when the first signs or symptoms of the disease are observed; and an eradicant action especially on the initial phases of the disease, preventing it from completing its infection process and consequently causing irreversible damage to the crop.

It is compatible with most insecticides, acaricides and fungicides in common use, however it is essential to previously carry out a compatibility test. It is perfectly miscible in most oils currently used, as well as in water-oil emulsions. Not compatible with products with a strong acid reaction. Not compatible with phosphites.

It is not phytotoxic when used according to the recommendations and doses of SPACHEM S.L. In case of mixing, perform a small scale test to check compatibility and phytotoxicity.
