[Formation and degradation of triademinol after the use of triadimefon in a wheat monoculture].

During two vegetation periods, the behaviour of the triadimefon metabolite, triadimenol, in different plant parts of winter wheat and in soil was investigated. The fungicide Bayleton DF (triadimefon + captafol) was applied at the beginning of earing. Different ratios of triadimenol-A/-B were found in individual plant parts. Triadimenol-A predominated in the two uppermost leaves, and triadimenol-B in the roots and in the soil. No residues of triadimenol were found in grain at harvest time (detection limit 0.01 mg/kg).
