Technical Name :
Flupyradifurone 17.09% W/W Sl
Description:
| Mode of action |
Agonist of the insect nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) |
| Crops |
Vegetables, fruits incl. grapes, citrus and plantation crops (coffee, cocoa), as well as cotton, soybean (seed treatment) |
| Key pests |
Aphids, whiteflies and psyllids, selected hoppers, scales, beetles mirids, leaf miners |
Inspired by nature
Innovative pest control derived from nature for gentle usage
The creation of flupyradifurone was inspired by the natural compound stemofoline – an isolate from Stemona japonica, a medicinal plant that grows mainly in South-East Asia. Stemofoline is an alkaloid with exciting insecticidal properties. For decades, scientists around the world have tried using this knowledge to develop a commercial crop protection but have failed in their attempts.
Bayer's research scientists have now succeeded in identifying which part of this complex natural product is responsible for its insecticidal action: the butenolide pharmacophore system addressing the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) in targeted pests. By combining it with two other chemical fragments, the scientists discovered that the efficacy and selectivity of the active ingredient could be significantly improved.
