Tioxazafen
[3-phenyl-5-(thiophen-
2-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole] is a new broad-spectrum seed treatment nematicide
that is designed to provide consistent broad-spectrum control of nematodes in
corn, soy, and cotton [1].
Tioxazafen
exhibits excellent activity against soybean cyst, root knot, and reniform
nematodes in soy; lesion, root knot, and needle nematodes in corn; as well as
reniform and root knot nematodes in cotton.
