Research Summary Abstract
Isocycloseram (Vykenda insecticide/miticide) is a new insecticide being developed by Syngenta for management of scale, mealybugs, thrips, beetles and other pests on environmental horticulture crops. The IR-4 Project completed 51 crop safety specific trials on 18 environmental horticulture plant species or genera during 2020 to 2025. In these trials, 15 species or genera exhibited minimal or no injury. Nine species or genera exhibited minimal or no injury in at least three trials and six additional species or genera exhibited minimal or no injury in a limited number of trials (one or two) for each crop.
