(Pseudomonas fluorescens)
Soil application, Foliar spray & Wettable powder form.
ALMONAS is a biological fungicide containing the cells of rhizobacteria, Pseudomonas fluorescens. It controls pathogens by winning the competition for food in the substrate. It offers long-lasting control against pathogens by secreting secondary metabolites that exhibit an antibiosis effect on the pathogens. It improves yield by enhancing plant health through controlling disease-causing pathogens. Pseudomonas fluorescens is a common non-pathogenic saprophyte that colonizes soil, water, and plant surfaces. It produces a soluble greenish fluorescent pigment. P. fluorescens suppresses plant diseases by protecting seeds and roots from fungal infections. This bacterium is mass-produced using fermentation technology.
