Pseudomonas Fluorescens 1.0% W.P. (Pseudo PEP), for Bio-Pesticides, Purity : 100

Listing ID #5297810

pseudomonas fluorescensis a common gram-negative, rod-shaped soil bacterium. It has remarkable biocontrol properties, protecting the plants against pathogens as well as some phytophagous nematodes.

• the bacteria colonize in the rhizosphere and induce systemic resistance in the host plant, resisting attack by the pathogens.

• the bacteria produce siderophores (pyochelin and pyoverdine) which scavenges most of the available iron compounds in the target site and making it unavailable to the pathogen. This ultimately prevents the growthand proliferation of fungal pathogens.

• the bacteria produce compounds antagonistic to other soil microbes, such as phenazine-type antibioticsand the secondary metabolite 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (2,4-dapg) found to b responsible for anti-phytopathogenic and biocontrol properties in these strains.besides biocontrol propertiesp. Fluorescenshas plant growth promoting activities like phosphate solubilization,production of indole acetic acid, gibberellic acid, cytokinin etc. Which helps in plant growth.
