Biological Control in Gingelly

RSCL BIO-T - Trichoderma viride - Controls Soil Borne Plant Pathogens RSCL BIO-T is a powder formulation containing spores of fungus Trichoderma viride which controls diseases like damping off, wilt and collar rot in various crops. It produces toxic metabolites like gliotoxin, viridian and trichodermin which reduce the population of pathogenic fungi. ADVANTAGES BIO-T produces certain plant growth promoting substances and acts as plant growth promoters. BIO-T enhances the vigor and promotes plant growth. BIO-T forms a natural protective barrier around the root zone against pathogenic energy.

RSCL BIOMONAS - Pseudomonas fluorescens-Controls Plant Pathogens & Promote Plant Growth RSCL BIOMONAS is a talc based formulation containing the bacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens, which acts against the plant pathogens causing root rot, wilt, blast, damping off, leaf spot and rhizome rot in various crops. It also acts as plant growth promoter. ADVANTAGES RSCL BIOMONAS produces plant growth promoting substances which enhance crop growth and increase yield RSCL BIOMONAS secretes complex toxins specific to pathogenic fungi, which inhibits the fungal infection. RSCL BIOMONAS ensures effective control of diseases for the entire duration of crop.

Tamil Nadu Agricultural University 1 promotes plant growth and enhances the yield potential of many crops It suppresses the soil borne pathogens like Fusarium, Rhizoctonia, Phytophthora and Pythium species and many nematodes. It induces systemic resistance in plant system against plant pathogens.

Note:

Talc based formulated product should not be mixed with fungicides. It should be used with in four months from the date of manufacture It is compatible with biofertilizers It is not harmful to the earthworm and other beneficial organisms living in the soil.

Fungal Antagonists Trichoderma spp. Trichoderma viride, T. harzianum and T. virens are most extensively used fungal antagonists. They are mass-produced using fermentation technology. They are used for the management of soil borne pathogens by seed treatment and soil application.
