폴리옥신

개요Polyoxin was found in the culture broth of Streptomyces cacaoi var. asoensis by Suzuki et al. in 1965. It consists of several closely related components, A through O, and shows activity against phytopathogenic fungi by inhibition of cell-wall chitin synthesis. Polyoxin has been used in agriculture against fungal infections, especially Alternaria leaf spot in vegetables and fruits.

용도The fungicidal activities of polyoxins reported on many plant pathogens, including Alternaria spp. and Rhizoctonia zoctonia spp. (24,25). Polyoxin B is used for control of Alternaria spp. and powdery mildews in apples and pears; Botrytis cinerea in vines and aubergines; powdery mildews in roses, chrysanthemums, and melons; blight of carnation; powdery mildew, brown spot, and gray mold in tobacco; powdery mildew and gray mold in strawberries; leaf mold, early blight, and gray mold in tomatoes; powdery mildew, gray mold, Sclerotinia erotinia spp. rot, and Corynespora melonis in cucumbers; Alternaria spp. blight in carrots; purple blotch in leeks. Patent: JP 493008 Formulation types: WP; EC; SG. Mixes with captan; oxine-copper; iminoctadine triacetate. Compatibility: Incompatible with alkaline materials. Tradename “Polyoxin AL.” Polyoxin D zinc salt is used for control of sheath blight (Rhizoctonia solani) in rice; canker in apples and pears; Rhizoctonia solani, Drechslera spp., Bipolaris spp., Curvularia spp., and Helminthosporium spp. in lawn turf. Formulation types: WP; PA. Mixes with thiram; propiconazole. Compatibility: Incompatible with alkaline materials. Tradenames “Kakengel” (zinc salt); “Polyoxin Z” (zinc salt); “Stopit.” Application of polyoxins can be made at any growth stage of rice plants without causing phytotoxicity even at 800-ppm application. Foliar sprays of 200 ppm of polyoxins have produced no phytotoxicity on all the other crops tested.
