Description
Biopesticide for controlling pathogenic fungi of potatoes, formulated as dispersible granules (WG) based on the fungus Trichoderma koningiopsis Th003, with a concentration of 1x109 conidia/g. Its main attribute is to be an efficient alternative to implement integrated crop management strategies, contributing to effective and sustainable management.
Additionally, the Th003 strain has the ability to promote plant growth, stimulating the development of roots and the aerial part of the plants. It produces enzymes such as cellulases, glucanases, and chitinases, which are related to the degradation of the cell wall of phytopathogenic fungi during mycoparasitism processes. Th003 has endophytic capacity, i.e., it can colonize and live in plant tissues without causing harm, establish a symbiotic relationship of mutual benefit, induce defense responses in the plant, or promote plant growth.
Among the benefits of using this product are: Broad spectrum of action against phytopathogens, it presents an efficacy of 31 to 60% for the control of pathogens, useful life of 19 months under refrigeration conditions, toxicological category IV (slightly toxic ), promotes plant growth, is suitable for foliar and soil application, increases plant resistance to other pathogens (induced systemic resistance - ISR), is compatible in rotation with chemically synthesized insecticides and fungicides, and rapidly disintegrates when mixed in tanks. TRICOTEC® wets and suspends quickly and homogeneously.
TRICOTEC® WG is registered to control R. solani (causing the black scab of potatoes, canker, or cancer of the stem, stolons, and roots) in potato crops, both for common and Creole potatoes.
