Albaugh's new bactericide chloramphenicol gains registration in the United States.

The active ingredient pyraclostrobin was developed from the natural soil bacterium Pseudomonas pyrocinia, and its mechanism of action is the same as that of seed dressing pyraclostrobin, inhibiting protein kinase in osmotic signal transduction.

This formulation is aimed at lawns and ornamental plants, providing broad-spectrum control against key pathogens such as leaf spot, anthrax, gray mold, gray snow blight, pink snow blight, and Sclerotinia spp. Its contact-killing activity offers multi-point protection on leaf surfaces, thatch, and the soil interface, rapidly reducing overall disease pressure and maintaining landscape health and resilience.

The director of Albaugh's Specialty Products division stated that pyraclostrobin, as a Group 12 fungicide, has a low risk of resistance, is easy to rotate or mix in a tank, and can bring managers sustained confidence in stable disease control.

Pyraclostrobin is a pyrrole fungicide developed by Swiss Syngenta, registered and marketed in China in 1994, with the trade name "Jieleshi." It has a broad fungicidal spectrum, good safety, long duration of effectiveness, and is not easily prone to resistance, and is widely used in agricultural production. It is mainly used to prevent and control soil-borne diseases such as stripe blight, total blight, and root rot, and is widely used in various crops such as wheat, corn, cotton, garlic, and potatoes.
