New pulse seed treatment Trilex AL registered

Trilex AL Seed Treatment Fungicide provides seed and seedling protection from seed and soil borne diseases caused by Rhizoctonia solani, Fusarium spp., Pythium spp., Botrytis cinerea and Phomopsis longicolla on labeled crops. Trilex AL is registered for use on beans (dry, succulent and snap), chickpeas, peas, lentils, and soybeans. With this registration, Trilex AL will be available to growers for on-farm treatment for the 2009 growing season. The two active ingredients and modes of action in Trilex AL are trifloxystrobin, a Group 11 fungicide, and metalaxyl, a Group 4 fungicide.

In Bayer CropScience trials conducted in Western Canada from 2002 to 2006, Trilex AL outperformed the major pulse seed treatment competitors and was way ahead of untreated checks for control of Rhizoctonia or Fusarium in pulses, and botrytis in lentils.

Always follow label directions.
