General Information:

• Trade name: Melody Duo
• Active ingredients: Iprovalicarb (5.5%) and Propineb (61.25%)
• Fungicide class: SDHI fungicide and Dithiocarbamate fungicide

Mode of Action:

Melody Duo is a systemic fungicide that works by two different modes of action. Iprovalicarb is a unique fungicide with a novel mode of action. It disrupts the succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) enzyme, which is essential for fungal energy production. Propineb is a dithiocarbamate fungicide that inhibits the production of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes. This combination of modes of action makes Melody Duo very effective against a wide range of fungal diseases.

Application:

Melody Duo can be applied to a variety of crops, including potatoes, tomatoes, grapes, onions, and vegetables. It can be applied pre-emergence or post-emergence, but it is most effective when applied preventatively. Melody Duo can be applied using a variety of application methods, including ground spraying, aerial spraying, and chemigation.

Precautions:

• Melody Duo is toxic to fish and other aquatic life. Do not apply Melody Duo to areas where it may run off into water bodies.
• Melody Duo can be harmful to non-target plants. Avoid applying Melody Duo to areas where non-target plants are growing.
• Melody Duo is a residual fungicide, so it can persist in the soil for several weeks. Do not plant crops that are sensitive to Melody Duo within 3 to 6 weeks of application.

Always follow the label directions carefully when using Melody Duo fungicide to ensure safe and effective use.

Additional Information:

• Melody Duo is a relatively new fungicide, so there is less resistance to it than other fungicides.

  • Late blight
  • Early blight
  • Botrytis

• Melody Duo is a systemic fungicide, which means that it is absorbed by the plant and translocated to the growing points. This makes it very effective at controlling fungal diseases.

Melody Duo is a valuable tool for farmers and other land managers who need to control fungal diseases in a variety of crops. It is important to use Melody Duo according to the label directions to ensure safe and effective use.
