3.0 PRODUCT INFORMATION
A23545 ST is a broad-spectrum seed treatment fungicide that consists of four fungicide
active ingredients: fludioxonil, mefenoxam, picarbutrazox, and sedaxane. Each active
ingredient has a different mode of action against fungal pathogens. This fungicide seed
treatment is designed for protection against many important fungal plant diseases. A23545
ST may be applied in tank mixes or sequentially with other registered seed treatment
pesticide products such as Cruiser
® 5FS (EPA Reg. No. 100-941, containing thiamethoxam)
or Fortenza® (EPA Reg. Nos. 100-1418 and 100-1420, containing cyantraniliprole)
insecticides or Saltro® (EPA Reg. No. 100-1648, containing pydiflumetofen)
fungicide/nematicide.
Fludioxonil protects against seed-borne and soil-borne Fusarium and Rhizoctonia spp. that
cause seed decay, damping-off, and seedling blight. This active ingredient also provides
protection from seed-borne Diaporthe-Phomopsis disease complex sometimes referred to as
pod and stem blight (Phomopsis and Diaporthe spp.). Fludioxonil suppresses seed-borne
Sclerotinia and Phomopsis spp.
Mefenoxam is active against Pythium and Phytophthora spp.
A23545 ST
7
Picarbutrazox provides early-season protection against Pythium and Phytophthora spp. that
cause seed rot and damping-off.
Sedaxane is active against seed decay, seedling blight, and damping-off caused by
Rhizoctonia spp.
3.1 Resistance Management
For resistance management, please note that A23545 ST contains fludioxonil, a Group 12
fungicide; mefenoxam, a Group 4 fungicide; picarbutrazox, a Group U17 fungicide; and
sedaxane, a Group 7 fungicide. Any fungal population may contain individuals naturally
resistant to A23545 ST and other Group 4, Group 7, Group 12, or Group U17 fungicides. A
gradual or total loss of pest control may occur over time if these fungicides are used
repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resistance-management strategies should be
followed.
Fludioxonil belongs to the phenylpyrrole class of chemistry, which interferes with osmotic
signal transduction. Mefenoxam belongs to the phenylamide class of chemistry, which
interferes with fungal RNA synthesis. Picarbutrazox belongs to the tetra-zolyloximes class of
fungicides and is not known to be cross-resistant with fungicides that have different modes of
action. Sedaxane is a succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor (SDHI) and belongs to the
carboxamide class of chemistry, which disrupts cellular respiration and energy generation.
To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps:
x Rotate the use of A23545 ST or other Group 4, Group 7, Group 12, or Group U17
fungicides within a growing season sequence with different groups that control the same
pathogens.
x Use tank mixtures with fungicide from a different group that are equally effective on the
target pest when such use is permitted. Use at least the minimum application rate as
labeled by the manufacturer.
x Adopt an integrated disease management program for fungicide use that includes
scouting, uses historical information related to pesticide use and crop rotation, and
considers host plant resistance, impact of environmental conditions on disease
development, disease thresholds, as well as cultural, biological and other chemical control
practices.
x Where possible, make use of predictive disease models to effectively time fungicide
applications. Note that using predictive models alone is not sufficient to manage
resistance.
x Monitor treated fungal populations for resistance development.
x Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisor for any additional pesticide
resistance-management and/or Integrated Pest Management (IPM) recommendations for
specific crop and pathogens.

x For further information or to report suspected resistance contact Syngenta at 1-866-
Syngent(a) (866-796-4368). You can also contact your pesticide distributor or university
extension specialist to report resistance.
Syngenta encourages responsible product stewardship to ensure effective long-term control
of the fungal diseases on this label.
4.0 APPLICATION DIRECTIONS
Important: Always recirculate A23545 ST thoroughly before using.
Follow the manufacturer’s application instructions for the seed treatment equipment being
used.
The typical density of A23545 ST is 8.85 pounds per gallon. Consult the manufacturer of the
application equipment you plan to use for suitability for this application and for instructions on
operation and calibration of the equipment. Follow the manufacturer’s application instructions
for the seed treatment equipment being used.
Apply A23545 ST as a water-based slurry utilizing standard slurry seed treatment equipment
that provides uniform seed coverage. Seed treaters with atomizers or spinning discs are
highly recommended for better product coverage on the seed. Uneven or incomplete seed
coverage may not give the desired level of disease control. Thoroughly mix the specified
amount of A23545 ST into the required amount of water or liquid inoculant for the slurry
treater and dilution rate to be used.
Certain crops require addition of inoculants when the seed is treated or planted. A23545 ST
is compatible with several liquid inoculant products. Consult the maker of the inoculant
product and a Syngenta Crop Protection representative for directions before applying A23545
ST with inoculants.
Continuous agitation or mixing of the slurry mixture is necessary to prevent settling out of the
solution. Clean out any unused product from the treater after treating or maintain constant
agitation if the leftover slurry will be maintained overnight.
Required Dye Statement: Seed treated with this product must be visually identifiable from
untreated seed by the use of an approved colorant or dye to prevent accidental use of treated
seed as food for humans or feed for animals. Refer to 21 CFR, Part 2.25. Any colorant or dye
added to treated seed must be cleared for use in accordance with 40 CFR, Part 153.155(c).
Allow seed to dry before bagging.
Follow planter manufacturer’s specifications for use of talc or other hopper box additives at
planting. Seed must be completely dry before adding to planter.
4.1 Tank Mixtures
A23545 ST
9
A23545 ST mixes easily with water and other water-based seed treatments manufactured by
Syngenta. When mixing with products from other manufacturers, test the compatibility prior
to use by conducting a jar test: mix all intended seed treatments with the appropriate amount
of water in a clear glass container. Mix well and allow mixture to sit for one hour. Remix and
observe for incompatibility.
It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the
intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for
use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive
directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture.
