The Product
BLOSSOM PROTECT™ (international)
PROTECT BLOSSOMS, SAFEGUARD FRUITS
A highly effective bactericide used to fight fire blight (Erwinia amylovora) in pome fruit.
The highly infectious disease typically attacks the tree via the blossoms during the flowering period. Mode of action: BLOSSOM PROTECT™ contains highly efficient microorganisms which block the fire blight pathogen from colonizing the pomme fruit blossom. The biotechnological product works through natural competition for space and nutrients between pathogens and antagonists on the blossom. As BLOSSOM PROTECT™ acts competitively and does not attack the metabolism of bacterial pathogens there is no risk of resistance even with frequent applications.
A highly efficient biological plant protection product used to control storage diseases.
Storage pathogens like Penicillium spp., Botrytis sp., Monilia spp. and Neofabraea sp. (Gloeosporium) may cause significant losses in pome fruit production (apple, pear, and quince). Blossom Protect™ contains highly efficient microorganisms which block the storage disease pathogens, such as Penicillium spp., Botrytis sp., Monilia spp. and Neofabraea sp. (Gloeosporium) from colonizing infection sites on the apple surface. The biotechnological product works through natural competition for space and nutrients between pathogens and antagonists on the fruit surface. As Blossom Protect™ acts competitively and does not attack the metabolism of fungal pathogens there is no risk of resistance even with frequent applications.
