Mode of Action
Fosetyl aluminium, the active ingredient in MAGELLAN®, is a true systemic fungicide which is rapidly taken up by the plant and transported both upwards (acropetally) and downwards (basipetally) in the cells. Fosetyl aluminium inhibits spore germination and penetration of pathogens into the plant by blocking its mycelial growth and spore production. Fosetyl aluminium also enhances the plant’s own natural defence system against diseases. The mode of action is multi-site.
