Pseudomonas Fluorescens 1.0% W.P. Bio-Fungicide Disease Control

Listing ID #5283418

pseudomonas fluorescensis a common gram-negative, rod-shaped soil bacterium. it has remarkable biocontrol properties, protecting the plants against pathogens as well as some phytophagous nematodes. the bacteria colonize in the rhizosphere and induce systemic resistance in the host plant, resisting attack by the pathogens. the bacteria produce siderophores (pyochelin and pyoverdine) which scavenges most of the available iron compounds in the target site and making it unavailable to the pathogen. this ultimately prevents the growthand proliferation of fungal pathogens. the bacteria produce compounds antagonistic to other soil microbes, such as phenazine-type antibioticsand the secondary metabolite 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (2,4-dapg) found to b responsible for anti-phytopathogenic and biocontrol properties in these strains.besides biocontrol propertiesp. fluorescenshas plant growth promoting activities like phosphate solubilization,production of indole acetic acid, gibberellic acid, cytokinin etc. which helps in plant growth. product benifits pseudomonasfluorescensprotect crops from a number of soil borne / seed borne plant pathogens. it is specific to the plant pathogens and eco-friendly in nature. it induces resistance in crop plants also. it helps in controlling pathogenic nematodes present in soil. it promotes plant growth by pgr activity. target crop paddy, maize, pulses, sorghum, millets, vegetable crops, oil seeds, cotton, sugarcane, ornamental crops, fruit crops. target diseases highly effective to the plant pathogens like fusariumspp, verticilliumspp., phytopthoraspp, pythiumspp., rhizoctoniaspp., botryti spp, sclerotiuspp., and sclerotiniasp., xanthomons sp. etc method of application & dosage seed treatment:10 gm ofp. fluorescensformulation mix in 50 ml. of water and applied on 1 kg of seeduniformly, shade dry the seeds for 20 to 30 minutes before sowing. seedling treatment:dissolve100 gm ofp. fluorescensformulation in 10 lt water and dip the roots of seedlings for 30-45 min before transplanting. nursery bed treatment:drench nursery beds (one sq meter) with @ 10 gm ofp. fluorescens formulation perliter of water before sowing the seeds specially for transplanted crop like paddy, capsicum, eggplant,tomatoes, cabbage and cauliflowers etc. soil treatment:mix 1 kg ofp. fluorescens formulation in 50 kg of fym / compost / well decomposed organic manure and broadcast in one acre field. foliar application: take 100 gmp. fluorescens formulation and 500 gm molasses (gur) in50 lt water. mixwell and kept for three days. stir the solution two to three times daily. mix 50 ml ofthis solution in one lt water and spray to protect foliar diseases like blast and blight after 40-45 days of transplanting.
