Questions and Answers

1.

Palladium is a new foliar fungicide that contains two complementary active ingredients.
- A.
  
  Fludioxonil & Cyproconazole
- B.
  
  Fluxastrobin & Clothianidin
- C.
  
  Fludioxinil & Cyprodinil
- D.
  
  None of the above
Correct Answer
C. Fludioxinil & Cyprodinil

Explanation
Palladium is a new foliar fungicide that contains two complementary active ingredients, Fludioxinil and Cyprodinil. These two active ingredients work together to effectively control fungal diseases on the foliage of plants. Fludioxinil is a broad-spectrum fungicide that inhibits fungal growth, while Cyprodinil is a systemic fungicide that penetrates the plant tissue to provide long-lasting protection. Together, they provide a powerful and comprehensive solution for controlling fungal infections on plants. The other options listed do not contain the correct combination of active ingredients.

2.

Palladium fungicide offers
- A.
  
  Both contact and systemic activity
- B.
  
  A new active ingredient that is not currently registered in the ornamental market
- C.
  
  Two unique modes of action
- D.
  
  All of the above
Correct Answer
D. All of the above

Explanation
The correct answer is "All of the above." This means that Palladium fungicide offers both contact and systemic activity, a new active ingredient that is not currently registered in the ornamental market, and two unique modes of action. In other words, Palladium fungicide has multiple benefits and features, making it a comprehensive and effective solution for controlling fungal diseases in ornamental plants.

3.

Palladium is particularly strong on this disease
- A.
  
  Downey mildew
- B.
  
  Rust
- C.
  
  Botrytis
- D.
  
  Phytophthora root rot
Correct Answer
C. Botrytis

Explanation
Botrytis is the correct answer because it is a fungal disease that is commonly known as gray mold. It affects a wide range of plants, including fruits, vegetables, and flowers. Botrytis thrives in cool and humid conditions, making it a common problem in greenhouses and during periods of high humidity. It causes grayish-brown patches on the affected plant parts, leading to rotting and decay. Palladium, a precious metal, is not known for its effectiveness in controlling or preventing plant diseases, so it is not strong on this disease.

Rate this question:
4.

Palladium can be used as
- A.
  
  A folliar spray
- B.
  
  A drench to control root & stem rots
- C.
  
  A liner dip
- D.
  
  All of the above
Correct Answer
A. A folliar spray

Explanation
Palladium can be used as a foliar spray, meaning it can be applied directly to the leaves of plants. This method of application allows the palladium to be absorbed by the leaves, providing a targeted treatment for various plant diseases and pests. Using palladium as a foliar spray is an effective way to control and prevent the spread of diseases and rot in the plant's foliage. Additionally, it can also be used as a drench to control root and stem rots, and as a liner dip for treating plant cuttings before they are planted.

Rate this question:
5.

The systemic protection of Palladium is provided by
- A.
  
  Both active ingredients
- B.
  
  Fludioxonil
- C.
  
  Cyprodinil
- D.
  
  Both active ingredients as long as an adjuvant is used
Correct Answer
C. Cyprodinil

Explanation
The systemic protection of Palladium is provided by Cyprodinil. This means that Cyprodinil is responsible for protecting the Palladium systemically. It is not mentioned whether Fludioxonil also provides systemic protection or if an adjuvant is required for both active ingredients to provide systemic protection. Therefore, the correct answer is Cyprodinil as it is explicitly stated to provide systemic protection.

Rate this question:
6.

Palladium can NOT be used on
- A.
  
  Plants in greenhouse
- B.
  
  Plants in residential landscape
- C.
  
  Containerized plants in the field
- D.
  
  Plants around commercial or industrial buildings
Correct Answer
B. Plants in residential landscape

Explanation
Palladium cannot be used on plants in residential landscapes because it is not suitable for use in residential areas. It may be more appropriate for plants in greenhouses, containerized plants in the field, or plants around commercial or industrial buildings. However, the specific reasons for why palladium cannot be used on plants in residential landscapes are not provided in the given information.

Palladium also has activity on these diseases
- A.
  
  Myrothecium, Alternaria, Powdery Mildew, Rhizoctonia
- B.
  
  Rhizoctonia, Sclerotonia, Rust, Pythium
- C.
  
  Downey Mildew, Powdery Mildew, Phytophthora
- D.
  
  None of the above
Correct Answer
A. Myrothecium, Alternaria, Powdery Mildew, Rhizoctonia

Explanation
Palladium has activity on the diseases Myrothecium, Alternaria, Powdery Mildew, and Rhizoctonia. This means that Palladium is effective in treating or controlling these diseases. The other options listed do not include all of these diseases, so they are not the correct answer.

Rate this question:
8.

Palladium is registered with a
- A.
  
  24hr REI & a warning label
- B.
  
  24hr REI & a caution label
- C.
  
  12hr REI & a warning label
- D.
  
  12hr REI & a caution label
- E.
  
  4hr REI & a caution label
Correct Answer
D. 12hr REI & a caution label

Explanation
Palladium is registered with a 12hr REI (Re-entry Interval) and a caution label. This means that after applying Palladium, individuals should wait for at least 12 hours before re-entering the treated area. Additionally, the product carries a caution label, indicating that it may cause slight to moderate adverse effects if not used properly.

Palladium should be used in rotation with other fungicide with different modes of action. Use no more than _______ application(s) before rotating to another fungicide.
- A.
  
  One
- B.
  
  Two
- C.
  
  Three
- D.
  
  Four
Correct Answer
B. Two

Explanation
Palladium should be used in rotation with other fungicides with different modes of action to prevent the development of resistance in fungal populations. Using the same fungicide repeatedly can lead to the selection of resistant strains, making the fungicide ineffective. By rotating to another fungicide after two applications of Palladium, the risk of resistance development is minimized, ensuring effective control of fungal diseases in the long term.
