Abstract

A method for controlling phytopathogenic fungi is disclosed. The method uses a fungicidal composition which has been found to be effective against strains of fungi which are resistant to benzimidazole fungicides. When combined with one or more of benzimidazole, thiophanate, or dicarboximide fungicides, and applied to a mixed population of sensitive and resistant fungi, the fungicidal compound of the present invention is more effective against the mixed population of fungi than either of the fungicidal compounds alone.
