Paecilomyces lilacinusis a biological insecticide based on a selective strain of naturally- occurring entomopathogenic fungus Paecilomyces lilacinus. The product contains spores and mycelial fragments of Paecilomyces lilacinus. It is a naturally occurring fungus found in many kinds of soils throughout the world. One of the serious problem in plantation crops including vegetables are nematodes.Nematodes feed damage the plant roots and reduce the water and nutrient uptake which results in reduction in yield. Paecilomyces lilacinus is applied to soil to control nematodes that attack plant roots.Paecilomyces liliainus protect against plant root nematodes by infecting eggs, juveniles, and adult females. 

 


Target Crops:


Paecilomyces lilacinus is applicable for  Vineyards, Eggplant, Potato, Chilli, Tomatoes, Cucumbers, Flowers, Orchards, Ornamentals in greenhouses, lawns, nurseries and landscape.
