Pyraclostrobin is a quinone outside inhibitor (QoI)-type[1][2][3][4] fungicide[5][6][7][8] used in agriculture.[8] Among the QoIs, it lies within the strobilurin chemical class.[9][8]

Pyraclostrobin is used to protect Fragaria,[1][2][3] Rubus idaeus,[2] Vaccinium corymbosum,[2] Ribes rubrum,[2] Ribes uva-crispa,[2] blackberry (various Rubus spp.),[2] and Pistachio vera.[4]

Target pathogens

edit

Pyraclostrobin is used against Botrytis cinerea[1][2][3] and Alternaria alternata.[4]

Resistance

edit

Resistant populations have been identified in:

Geography of use

edit

United States

edit

Pyraclostrobin was widely used throughout the United States As of 2017, but especially in the Upper Midwest.[10][11]

Off-target toxicity

edit

Although toxic, and recommended to be avoided by humans, pyraclostrobin is of temporary and low toxicity, that is to say it is merely an irritant[12] of eyes and skin.[8] It does cause some degree of reproductive and developmental failure in mammals[13] but does not absorb well through the skin.[8] It is likely to bioaccumulate in aquatic organisms.[8]

Residues in diet

edit

Pyraclostrobin does not accumulate in foods to a significant degree.[9]

Biodegradability

edit

Pyraclostrobin is described by one source as not very biodegradable,[9] and by another as possibly significantly biodegradable.[8]
