Boscalid is a succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor that exhibits significant antifungal activity. By binding to the ubiquinone-binding site of mitochondrial complex II in fungi, Boscalid disrupts ATP production and aerobic respiration, effectively controlling a range of plant fungal diseases, such as gray mold, sclerotinia rot, and powdery mildew. In addition to its agricultural applications, research indicates that Boscalid induces apoptosis and alters lipid metabolism while causing mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and ROS accumulation in zebrafish models. Furthermore, it demonstrates chronic toxicity and impacts foraging behavior in honeybees, alongside exhibiting genotoxic and cytotoxic effects in cellular systems.
