Flonicamid is a selective systemic aphicide discovered by Ishihara Sangyo Kaisha, Ltd.? While providing excellent levels of control in foliar applications, seed treatment applications of this chemical class have not been realized so far. We will outline our results showing that a structural simplification of the amide moiety can lead to improved biological performance against aphids in seed treatment applications.
