BACTO-CONTROL™ is a proprietary blend of bacteria cultures with high production of bio-active molecules. The bacteria cultures included in this product have a great potential to protect crops from a broad range of diseases by direct inhibition of pathogens and stimulation of the plant’s immune system. The bacteria also promote plant growth by acting as a root colonizer that will protect it from pathogens and then facilitate nutrient absorption.
The lipopeptides act on plant pathogens via two major mechanisms: inhibition of the synthesis of their cell wall components such as glucan or chitin, and the breakdown of fungi cell walls through surface-active properties. In addition, biosurfactants can also act as spreaders (by facilitating root colonization) and immuno-stimulators (by reinforcing host resistance potential).
