“…Typical agrochemicals from natural products include derivatives of strobilurins, coumarins, psoralen, pyrethrin, neopeltolide, nicotine, luotonin A, and rotenone − The principle of IDM is to fully consider cost of raw materials and intermediates, sustainability, facile industrialization, and freedom to operate in order to create novel bioactive molecules. Several rounds of “design–synthesis–test–analysis” are usually needed to reach targets with novel structures and reasonable biological performance. ,− Commercial pesticides such as coumoxystrobin, pyraoxystrobin, pyrimidifen, diflumetorim, and flufenerim are examples from IDM strategy. , PFVS is realized through biophysical screening via analyzing interactions between a target protein and its ligand . A successful example via the PFVS strategy is the discovery of flubeneteram, a novel fungicide targeting SDH. , CADD is carried out by a combination of bioinformatics and computer technology, which can be structure-based drug design (SBDD) and ligand-based drug design (LBDD). − SBDD considers the mode of binding between a receptor and its ligand by homology modeling and molecular docking to understand their interactions.…”
