Introduction:
Carbendazim is a widely used, broad-spectrum fungicide from the benzimidazole class. It works by inhibiting beta-tubulin synthesis. Carbendazim is absorbed through the roots and green tissues and moves throughout the plant. It stops the development of fungal germ tubes, appressoria, and mycelia growth. It controls diseases like Septoria, Fusarium, Erysiphe, and Pseudocercosporella in cereals; Sclerotinia, Alternaria, and Cylindrosporium in oilseed rape; Cercospora and Erysiphe in sugar beet; Uncinula and Botrytis in grapes; Cladosporium and Botrytis in tomatoes; Venturia and Podosphaera in pome fruit; and Monilia and Sclerotinia in stone fruit. It is also used as a seed treatment for wheat and barley.
