About this product

Polyversum WP Biological Fungicide: Advanced Protection and Growth Stimulation for Your Crops

Polyversum WP Biological Fungicide is an innovative, eco-friendly solution designed to protect your crops from a wide range of fungal and bacterial diseases while promoting healthy growth. This powerful wettable powder (WP) formulation contains germinable oospores of Pythium oligandrum, a naturally occurring microorganism known for its unique modes of action against phytopathogens. By harnessing the biological properties of Pythium oligandrum, Polyversum WP provides a dual function: it acts as a potent biological fungicide and a plant growth stimulator.

Active Substance:
The active ingredient in PolyVersum WP is Pythium oligandrum, a beneficial fungus that works through multiple mechanisms to protect and enhance plant health. Each gram of the product contains 1 x 10^6 germinable oospores, ensuring effective and consistent performance across various crop types.

Modes of Action:

  1. Mycoparasitism: Pythium oligandrum targets and decomposes the tissue of harmful phytopathogens by producing hydrolytic enzymes. This process not only neutralizes the pathogens but also provides nutrients for the fungus's growth, effectively reducing the threat of disease.
  2. Induction of Resistance: The secondary metabolites produced by Pythium oligandrum stimulate the plant’s natural defenses, inducing the production of both morphological and biochemical barriers. This enhanced resistance helps the plant ward off attacks from a variety of fungal and bacterial diseases.
  3. Growth Stimulation: In addition to its protective properties, Pythium oligandrum promotes the production of growth phytohormones through its secondary metabolites, leading to healthier, more vigorous plants with improved yield potential.
