Popis: SUMMARY 4-Amino-4′-hydroxyazobenzene and particularly some of its ring-substituted derivatives are efficient seed protectants for the control of Pythium ultimum on peas. They are also active against Tilletia caries on wheat, but are ineffective against four other seed- or soil-borne pathogenic fungi. A possible mode of action of the compounds is suggested. Mammalian toxicity data for 4-amino-4′-hydroxyazobenzene and its 3′,5′-dimethyl and 2,3′,5′-trimethyl homologues are included.
