How It Works: Mode of Action
Isoprothiolane is a dithiolane fungicide associated with interference in phospholipid biosynthesis. This disrupts normal development of susceptible blast fungi.
- Systemic movement: The manufacturer describes activity within treated plant tissues.
- Fungal process affected: Isoprothiolane interferes with normal phospholipid-related processes.
- Disease effect: The disruption limits normal fungal development.
Use the current label and local resistance-management advice. A second active ingredient or a change of brand does not guarantee that resistance will be prevented.

Dosage & Application Guide
These are manufacturer product-page references, not a substitute for the supplied label. Keep product amount, water and harvest interval paired with the same crop.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose / Litre | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rice | 300 | 200–400 | Confirm* | 60 |
Synergy’s table lists 300 ml/acre with 200–400 L/acre and 60 days before harvest. Its separate 2 ml/L statement does not match that table, so a per-litre recommendation is withheld.
*A field marked “Confirm” is not established for use here. Obtain the missing or corrected instruction before treatment; an absent PHI does not mean zero days.
Do not combine the unpaired 2 ml/L text with the acre table. Confirm the application route and complete mixing instructions on the current pack before treatment.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Application route: Confirm the exact crop-specific application method.
- Match the treatment: Use the named crop and target, and follow the crop and pest or disease stage stated on the supplied pack.
- Mixing and coverage: Use the labelled equipment and water instructions. Do not assume that this product can be mixed with another pesticide.
- Before treatment: Resolve every missing or conflicting direction, including waiting periods and re-entry requirements.
