PO kills pathogens by coparasitism and induces plant resistance through small molecules. It also produces tryptamine to support plant and root growth.
Mainly coparasitism; it also indirectly affects pathogens by triggering plant resistance.
Biomass peaks 3–5 days after application and gradually declines over about a month.
Yes, effective against certain bacteria via plant resistance induction and excellent against Pythium-related diseases.
Optimal is 20–30 °C, but PO can grow between 5–40 °C and resumes activity after cooler periods.
It does not multiply in water, and applications should occur within 24 hours of mixing.
Pre-harvest interval is 0, and no visible residues remain when mixed correctly.
Seed/seedling treatment followed by drip irrigation or spraying is recommended. PO works well in greenhouses.
Yes, effective via fertigation; recommended rates are 100–300 g/ha depending on pathogen pressure.
Dry or wet coating at 0.1–1 kg/t for cereals/soy/sugar beet/potatoes, 5 g/kg for vegetables; apply as a sole fungicide. Adjuvants like Silwet can be used but are not essential.
Most fertilizers compatible; avoid oomycete fungicides and Trichoderma. Rare minor effects include tiny brown spots in sensitive crops, and proper sprayer maintenance is needed to prevent clogging.
