Penicillium Bilaiae

Antagonistic Activity

Penicillium bilaiae inhibits some pathogenic fungal diseases:

a) Fusarium oxysporum
b) Fusarium Solani
c) Rhizoctonia Solani
d) Nigrospora Sphaerica
e) Bipolaris Sorokiniana
f) Macrophomina Phaseolina
g) Corynespora Cassiicola

Mode of Action

Approximately 90% of the organic phosphate fertilizer applied to soil is not used by crops in the year of application, as the pet safe fungicide becomes bound to soil particles and other elements and becomes unavailable. This means that at least 25% of the applied phosphate is never used. To make the most efficient use of the organic phosphate fertilizer and maximize crop yield potential, it is important to find ways to make the phosphorus more accessible to plants.

The soybean inoculation can also produce soil organic acids, such as citric acid, helps for phosphate solubilization from soil minerals. The mechanism of this phosphate solubilizing bacteria involves the secretion of enzymes that break down the fixed phosphorus found in phosphates into a form that is more soluble and available to plants. These enzymes, called phosphatases, hydrolyze the phosphates, releasing the phosphorus in a form that can be taken up by plants.

Benefit

• Strong phosphate solubilizing abilities, enhances early vigor
• Boosts root and shoot growth
• Earlier more uniform maturity
• Give seeds protection when facing pathogens
• Supporting greater stress tolerance and earlier
• Improves yield potential eco-friendly
• Increases plant nourishment, enabling plants to tolerate environmental stressors better
• Better Potential for winter wheat survival
• Active when the availability of phosphate is low in chilly soil temperatures

Application Rate

• Seed inoculation: the pet safe fungicide can be applied as seeds inoculant before planting.
• Soil application: Apply at a rate of 1-3 kgs per acre by soil drench or mixed into the fertilizer before planting.
• Consult with phosphate solubilizing bacteria manufacturer or seller when using the eco fungicide, as the recommended application rate and methods may vary depending on the crops.
