Stature SC for Phytophthora Stature SC is also designed for preventive management of Phytophthora diseases, including foliar, stem, crown, and root diseases on labeled ornamental crops. Its multiple application methods make it useful in greenhouse and nursery disease-management programs where both above-ground and below-ground Phytophthora pressure may occur. Resistance Management Stature SC is a Group 40 fungicide, so it should be incorporated into a resistance-management program with fungicides having different modes of action. BASF's product information recommends using Stature SC as part of a fungicide rotation program. The label also restricts consecutive applications in certain situations, so always follow the current label rather than relying on a generic spray schedule.
