Water Soluble 20 billion cfu/g Biological Fertilizer Nematicide Paecilomyces Lilacinus

Dora Nematicide’s Effective component is Paecilomyces lilacinus, It is a common saprophytic, entomopathogenic, mycoparasitic, saprophytic, as well as nematophagous, filamentous fungus.

It is parasitic on nematodes infecting eggs, juveniles, and adult females of root-knot and cyst nematodes. The species can grow at a wide range of temperatures – from 8°C to 38°C for a few isolates, with optimal growth in the range 26°C to 30°C.

It also has a wide pH tolerance and can grow on a variety of substrates. After many times of field trials, Dora Nematicide has proven promising results for use as a biocontrol agent to control the growth of destructive root-knot nematodes.

Dora Nematicide protects the roots against plant-parasitic nematodes, specifically root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.), Banana nematodes (Radopholus similis) reniform nematode(Rotylenchulus reniformis), and citrus nematodes (Tylenchulus semipenetrans). These nematodes infect horticultural crops of economic importance.
