Plant-Pesticide Interaction. Pesticides can be absorbed by plants through the leaves and roots. Pesticides that are taken up by plants can move (translocate) to other parts of the plant. 1  Herbicides that are taken up by the plant (systemic herbicides) often are designed to interfere with the plants development by mimicking plant hormones. 2  Systemic insecticides move throughout the plant.
Fungicides and How to Use Them Effectively. Viruses, nematodes, and bacteria can cause plant disease, but fungi are the number one disease-causing organism. As a result, fungicides are frequently used by homeowners when managing plant disease problems. Fungicides are pesticides that can kill or inhibit growth of fungi on plants, but they are not effective against bacteria, nematodes, or viral diseases. Fungicides can be classified based on if they are absorbed by the plant and if they can move around in plant tissues, their 'curative' properties, how they kill the fungi (mode of action), and type of chemical.
