How It Works: Mode of Action
Xelora combines thiophanate-methyl and pyraclostrobin in a
formulation specifically intended for seed treatment.
-
Cell division disrupted: Thiophanate-methyl interferes with the structures fungi need for normal cell division.
-
Energy production inhibited: Pyraclostrobin blocks a step in fungal respiration, the process fungi use to produce energy.
-
Fungal growth restricted: Disrupting cell division and energy supply restricts the growth of susceptible fungi.
The active ingredients belong to FRAC Groups 1 and 11. Consider
both groups when planning the wider disease-management programme.

For garlic Fusarium disease, use Xelora only if the supplied
current Indian pack permits that crop and disease and provides the complete seed-treatment directions. Do not borrow a dose from
another crop.
Dosage & Application Guide
These are seed-weight or seed-tuber-weight rates, not acre rates.

| Potato |
Black scurf |
20 ml/100 kg seed tubers |
Sufficient to coat uniformly |
Seed-tuber coating before planting; not a dip-concentration instruction. |
| Chickpea |
Root rot; Wilt |
4 ml/10 kg seed |
Sufficient to coat uniformly |
Uniform seed coating before sowing. |
Use enough water for uniform coating. Follow the supplied pack
for preparation and drying; do not assume a fixed slurry volume, soak time, treated-seed storage interval or tank
mixture.
The potato quantity is specifically 20 ml per 100 kg of seed
tubers; chickpea is 4 ml per 10 kg of seed. Do not read these as ml/kg rates.
For the five manufacturer-listed crops, harvest interval is shown
as not applicable to the seed-treatment use. This is not permission to eat or feed treated seed.
Before treating garlic, confirm the exact product amount per
stated weight of planting material on the supplied current pack. Do not infer this from the potato or chickpea
rates.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Weigh first: Measure the seed or seed-tuber batch and use only the rate for that crop.
-
Coat evenly: Use the manufacturer’s uniform-coating method. Follow the supplied leaflet for equipment, slurry preparation and
drying instructions.
-
Keep the route correct: These directions are for seed or seed-tuber treatment. They do not authorize foliar spraying or a tuber-dip
bath.
-
Mixtures: Do not assume compatibility with inoculants or other treatments. Use a proposed combination only when both current
product labels permit it for that crop and seed-treatment method.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Xelora a foliar fungicide?
The programmes here are for seed or seed-tuber treatment, not foliar spraying.
What is the soybean or groundnut rate?
The manufacturer lists 2–2.5 ml per kg of seed for both crops, against their separately listed diseases.
What is the potato rate?
The manufacturer lists 20 ml per 100 kg of seed tubers for black scurf. It is not 20 ml/kg and is not a
dipping concentration.
How much water is needed?
Use enough water to coat the batch uniformly. Follow the supplied leaflet for slurry preparation; do not
invent a fixed water volume, soak time or treated-seed storage interval.
Can the same dose be used for chickpea or garlic?
No. Chickpea is 4 ml per 10 kg of seed. For garlic, first obtain the current pack’s explicit crop and
disease permission and exact dose per stated weight of planting material. Do not infer it from another crop.
