APPLICATIONS

Morpholine fungicides are classified as compounds with a low risk of resistance development in the target organism because they act at several sites. In contrast, barley powdery mildew, being a wind dispersed, highly sporulating, polycyclic pathogen with many asexual generations in a single season, belongs to the group of high risk fungi as far as fungicide resistance is concerned. Morpholines have been the main source of control of barley powdery mildew in the UK since triazole resistance became widespread in the mid -1980s. With a high selection pressure on the mildew population, there is a risk of fungicide resistance developing in this pathogen. As part of a programme to assess this risk, the morpholine sensitivity of mildew isolates was measured to determine whether the use of morpholine fungicides on cereals was associated with any change in the sensitivity to morpholines in the pathogen isolated from these crops. The fungicide sensitivity of isolates was then related to the previous history of the crop which were grouped as those collected from crops with no history of fungicide use, isolates obtained from different geographical regions and isolates obtained over several seasons, 1991-1994.

Several morpholine derivatives, e.g., morpholinium salts of certain acylated sulfonamides, possess bactericidal activity. Morpholine hydroperiodide has been used as a water disinfectant (Texaco, 1986). Morpholine fungicides are used for agricultural purposes (Mercer, 1991), as foliar fungicides with protective and curative properties for the control of powdery mildew and rust (Brouwers et al., 1992; Leenheers et al. 1992), and as foliar fungicides for cereals (Ackermann et al., 1989). Morpholine is also used in the preparation of herbicides that can be applied either to the soil before the weeds emerge or to the growing plants (Texaco, 1986). (source: IPCS INCHEM)
