IRAC publishes and maintains a classification of insecticides and miticides, based on mode of action, that has become the de facto standard, and provides the framework for this guide. As of 2013, there are 27 insecticide MoA groups, numbered 1-25, 28 and UN.
This chart groups insecticides by their modes of action to assist you in selecting insecticides 1) to maintain greater diversity in insecticide use and 2) to rotate among effective insecticides with different modes of action to delay the development of insecticide resistance.
2 A compound with an unknown or controversial mode of action or an unknown mode of toxicity will be held in Group UN until evidence becomes available to enable that compound to be assigned to a more appropriate mode of action group.
The IRAC Mode of Action (MoA) classification provides growers, advisors, extension staff, consultants and crop protection professionals with a guide to the selection of acaricides or insecticides for use in an effective and sustainable acaricide or insecticide resistance management (IRM) strategy.
In practice, alternations, sequences or rotations of insecticidal or acaricidal agents from different MoA groups provide a sustainable and effective approach to IRM. This ensures that selection from insecticidal agents in any one MoA group is minimised.
Bacillus thuringiensis and the insecticidal proteins they produce. A compound with an unknown or controversial mode of action or an unknown mode of toxicity will be held in group ‘un’ until evidence becomes available to enable that compound to be assigned to a more appropriate mode of action group.
