Descriptions
Katyayani Paecilomyces Lilacinus is a bio-nematicide formulated as a liquid containing high concentrations of the natural Paecilomyces Lilacinus fungus. This product is applied to soil or seeds, where it comes into contact with nematode eggs, juveniles, or adult females, weakening and ultimately killing the nematodes. It is recognized as an eco-friendly alternative to chemical pesticides, being safe for humans, animals, and the environment.
Benefits:
- Most effective when integrated into an overall pest management strategy.
- Best applied before nematode populations reach damaging levels.
- Results may take several weeks to become evident.
- Organic and safe for use around people and pets.
Mode of Action:
The mode of action of Paecilomyces Lilacinus involves several steps:
- Spore Germination and Hyphae Growth: Spores come into contact with nematode eggs or juveniles, germinating and developing fungal threads (hyphae) that grow toward the nematode.
- Appressoria Formation: Specialized structures called appressoria form at the tips of the hyphae, allowing the fungus to anchor itself to the nematode's body.
- Enzyme Secretion: Once attached, Paecilomyces Lilacinus secretes enzymes that break down proteins in the nematode's cuticle and cell wall, creating openings for the fungus to enter.
- Nutrient Absorption and Colonization: The hyphae penetrate the nematode's body cavity and absorb nutrients, weakening and eventually killing the nematode.
- Reproduction: The fungus reproduces within the dead nematode, producing new spores that can infect other nematodes in the soil.
Target Crops:
Maize, Sorghum, Soybean, Chickpea, Brinjal (Eggplant), Potato, Capsicum (Bell Pepper), Tomato, Cucumber, Cardamom, Ornamental Flowers, Grapes, Many other fruit and vegetable crops.
Target Pests:
- Root-Knot Nematodes
- Cyst Nematodes
- Reniform Nematodes
- Citrus Nematodes
- Stunt NematodesDosage and Application
Paecilomyces Lilacinus is typically applied around the base of plants. It can be mixed with water for drenching or incorporated into the soil before planting. The dosage varies based on the severity of the nematode infestation:
- Domestic Use: 5 - 10 ml per liter of water.
- Soil Application: 1 - 2 liters per acre.
