This studies were conducted to investigate the effects of hexaconazole on growth of watermelon(Citrullus lanatus Schrad) and ethylene evolution from gourd(Lagenaria siceraria Standl). While foliar application of hexaconazole exhibited inhibition effect, little or no inhibition was found in the plants treated with soil drench application. The plant height and number of internode in watermelon were significantly inhibited at 7 days after treatment(DAT), but no significant difference was found at 42 DAT. No significant difference was found in site of female flower setting when treated with hexaconazole. The length of branch was significantly inhibited at the 2nd or the 3rd internode. It was suggested that the inhibition of stem elongation was related with application timing of the chemical. Hexaconazole increased ethylene evolution more effectively at earlier stage of gourd, but after 5 DAT ethylene evolution was decreased.

In order to elucidate the behavior of the fungicide hexaconazole (1-(6-chloro-3-pyrldyhnethyl)N-nitroimidazolidin-2-ylideneamine) in carp (Cyprinus carpio L.), carps were exposed to [$^{14}C$]hexaconazole at a predicted environmental concentration (PEC) of 0.32 mg $L^{-1}$ for 4 days under static conditions. Hexaconazole in water was absorbed into carps to reach the maximum concentration 2 days after exposure. The amounts of the [$^{14}C$]hexaconazole and its metabolites absorbed in gall were much higher than those in the other organs and especially those in gall 2 days after exposure were 25 and 67 times higher than those in liver and kidney, respectively, strongly suggesting that biliary excretion involving enterohepatic recirculation could be an import route for the elimination of hexaconazole absorbed in carps.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of plant growth retardants (daminozide, chlormequat, hexaconazole, uniconazole, paclobutrazole) and fungicides of triazole chemical (microbutanil, difenoconazole, terbuconazole, bitertanol) on the rooting of 'New Guinea' impatiens cuttings. In both 'Papete' and 'Anguilla', the formation of adventitious roots was promoted by all concentrations of chlormequat, hexaconazole, uniconazole, and paclobutrazole treated. More adventitious roots were formed with hexaconazole, uniconazole, and paclobutrazole than with chlormequat. Length of the longest root and rooting zone decreased at higher concentrations of chlormequat, hexaconazole, uniconazole, and paclobutrazole in 'Papete', while 'Anguilla' showed less responses. In contrast with plant growth retardants, the formation of adventitious roots was remarkably promoted by fungicides of triazole chemical such as microbutanil, difenoconazole, terbuconazole, and bitertanol in 'Pepete' and 'Martinique' impatiens, but was not in 'Pagopago'. However, length of the longest root and rooting zone showed more sensitive response in 'Martinique' and 'Pagopago' than in 'Pepete'. These results suggest that fungicides of triazole chemical can be effectively used for rooting promotion of impatiens cuttings.

In this study, hexaconazole 5% SC, an ergosterol biosynthesis inhibitor, was tested on groundnut with its recommended ($500\;mL\;ha^{-1}$) and higher ($2,000\;mL\;ha^{-1}$) concentrations under greenhouse conditions in India. Its influence on biochemical constituents of groundnut plants was assessed apart from its disease management potential against late leaf spot caused by Phaeoisariopsis personata (Berk and Curt). Likewise, leaf samples were collected from hexaconazole 5% SC-sprayed plants at different time intervals. Thereafter, their analyses showed considerable differences in the plant constituents, such as chlorophyll, soluble protein, and total phenol contents and the activity of nitrate reductase enzyme. The induction activity of defense-related enzyme, peroxidase, was also analyzed. However, no difference was observed in the isozymic pattern. Moreover, the ground kernels collected from treated plants also showed no difference in the estimated carbohydrate and other constituents.

Adsorption and leaching characteristics of hexaconazole were investigated to estimate the mobility potential of the compound in the soil environment. As well fitted to Freundlich adsorption isotherm, adsorptivity of hexaconazole, ranged 10.56-18.01 of Kf values, seemed high enough to be immobile in soil. This chemical leached more faster from fresh soil with rice plants. Most of $^{14}C$ (86-99% of originally applied $^{14}C$) was distributed within 5 cm soil depth from surface. Considering Koc values of 1,400-1,552 and Groundwater Ubiquity Score (GUS) indices of 1.25-1.35 as well as results from leaching experiment with soil column, hexaconazole falls into the category of improbable leacher, suggesting little mobility in soil.

This work was conducted to apply the multi class pesticide multiresidue method for determining the use of hexaconazole in the agricultural products using GC-NPD. The multi class pesticide multiresidue method results were validated for the assay of hexaconazole by using linearity, accuracy, precision, limit of detection and quantitation. The linearity in the concentration ranged from 0.025 to 5.0 mg/L ($R^2$ > 0.999). Lettuce recoveries ranged from 89.42% to 94.15% with relative standard deviations below 7.78%, for spiking levels from 0.04 to 4.0 mg/kg. The limit of detection was 0.04 mg/kg, and the limit of quantitation was 0.11 mg/kg. The intra- and inter-day precisions were 2.42~3.49% and 4.90~7.78%, respectively. We suggested that the multi class pesticide multiresidue method for determining hexaconazole was highly accurate and reproducible, and it will be used as a routine analysis in agricultural products.

This study was conducted to examine the effects of the seeding rate on the disease incidence of sharp eyespot(Rhizoctonia cerealis) on three different varieties and to select effective chemicals to control the disease. When the seeds were sown twice as many as the recommendation, the disease incidence increased by approximately 13%. However, the susceptible variety 'Jopummil' alone showed the significantly enhanced disease incidence at a two-fold seeding rate. Two chemicals such as Hexaconazole EC and Tebuconazole EC highly inhibited the fungal growth on agar medium. However, two strobilurin fungicides such as Pyraclostrobin EC and Trifloxystrobin SC were relatively weak. The fungicides tested displayed the similar in vivo antifungal activities as in vitro activities. Hexaconazole EC and Tebuconazole EC showed the strongest both protective and curative activities and the protective activities of the chemicals were generally higher than the curative activities. Hexaconazole EC and Tebuconazole EC controlled the disease by 64% and 73%, respectively, and the two chemicals reduced the disease by 45% and 39%, respectively, when they were applied one day after pathogen inoculation. These results indicate that both Hexaconazole EC and Tebuconazole EC could be used to control sharp eyespot on wheat.

In order to elucidate the behavior of the fungicide hexaconazole in soil and rice plants, rice plants were grown for 42 days in a microecosystem (pot) containing fresh and 28 day-aged soil residues of $[^{14}C]$hexaconazole. The amount of $^{14}CO_2$ evolved during 28 days of aging was 0.11 % of total $^{14}C$-radioactivity treated and the averaged weekly degradation rate was 0.03%. Mineralization rates for 42 days of rice cultivation on fresh and aged paddy soils were 0.67% of the total $^{14}C$ in case of non-rice planting on aged soil and 1.17% in case of rice planting on aged soil, whereas 1.25% in non-rice planting on fresh soil and 1.72% in case of rice planting on fresh soil, suggesting that the amounts of $^{14}CO_2$ were evolved higher from fresh soils than aged ones and from rice-planting soils than non-planting ones. The amounts of volatiles collected were very low as background levels. Most of $^{14}C$-Radioactivity was remained in soil after 42 days of rice cultivation and $^{14}C$ absorbed through rice roots was distributed more in shoots than roots and translocated into the edge of shoots of rice plants. Amounts of non-extractable $^{14}C$ in soils were higher in rice planted soil than in non-planting soil. The distribution of non-extractable $^{14}C$ was increased in the order of humin>fulvic acid>humic acid. The amounts of $^{14}C$ translocated into rotational crop Chinese cabbage were 2.36 and 3.69% of the total $^{14}C$ in case of rice planted soil containing fresh and aged residues, respectively, suggesting that small amounts of $[^{14}C]$hexaconazole and its metabolite(s) were absorbed and their bound residues were more available than their fresh ones to Chinese cabbage.
