Fenpiclonil is the
first phenylpyrrole fungicide developed by Ciba Geigy
(now belonging to the portfolio of Syngenta Crop Protection
AG) for seed treatment. Different formulation
types have been used for its commercialization either
in solo (trade name “Beret”) or in mixture with other
fungicides, as for instance, imazalil (“Beret Special”) or
carboxin + imazalil (“Beret Universal”).
