Paecilomyces Lilacinus
default

Catalog Number B-1067

Description Paecilomyces lilacinus, a well-known nematicide, is a versatile filamentous fungus that is saprophytic, entomopathogenic, mycoparasitic, and nematophagous. It targets nematodes by infecting their eggs, juveniles, and adult females, particularly those of root-knot and cyst nematodes. This fungus can thrive in temperatures ranging from 8°C to 38°C, with optimal growth between 26°C and 30°C. It also exhibits broad pH tolerance and can grow on various substrates. Extensive field trials have demonstrated that Paecilomyces lilacinus is an effective bio control agent for managing harmful root-knot nematodes.

Benifits

• Broad spectrum inhibition and control of economically destructive soil insects and nematodes
• Protecting crops from yield loss
• Improve yield and harvest quality
• Promote stronger and healthier root systems
• Zero residue, suitable for organic production

Mode Of Action

• Paecilomyces lilacinus is an effective biocontrol agent against various nematodes, particularly root-knot nematodes, with a high egg parasitism rate of 60-70%. It inhibits nematodes by surrounding their eggs with fungal hyphae, causing egg shell rupture through exogenous metabolites and chitinase, and secreting toxins to kill the nematodes.

Dosage

• During Planting: Apply 1.5 grams per square meter, adjusting based on nematode presence. Reapply every 28 days for continuous control.
• During Cultivation: Use 1.5 grams per square meter as a lay-by application, mixing the spray into the soil profile. This should be a supplemental treatment following the initial in-furrow application.
