Dipeptide compounds having a high fungicidal activity and their agronomic use

When used in admixture with mancozeb, chlorothalonil, a copper salt, folpet, fluazinam or cymoxanil (this being possible for the latter to be used also together with one of the other five components), metalaxyl having a high R-enantiomer content of more than 70% by weight, or pure R-metalaxyl, exhibits a markedly increased fungicidal action against plant diseases as compared with a similar mixture in which metalaxyl is used in the form of the racemate.

Fungicidal compositions based on (N-phenylacetyl-N-2,6-XYLYL)methyl alaninate

This invention refers to new analogs of strobilurine, having the general formula (I): ##STR1## The compounds of formula (I) are endowed with good stability and high fungicidal activity against phytopathogenous fungi, combined with good selectivity for the vegetable it is designed to apply to.
