The crop tribute days at the World Horti Center in Naaldwijk occupy place on 19 and 20 April . During these days , ECOstyle Professional presented a trial of the biological fungicide Lalstop K61 against the soil fungi Pythium and Fusarium . Due to interest , ECOstyle is once again presenting this trial online .
Lalstop K61 is a fungicide based on the streptomyces K61 bacteria . This bacterium bring forth a innate antibiotic ( streptomycin ) and auxin ( flora internal secretion that stimulates etymon growth ) . Lalstop K61 is a robust soil bacteria that can be mixed with various chemical antimycotic agent . It also produces antibiotic drug naturally , so concentration are not burdensome .
Aukje presents petri dishes at the Crop Protection Days 2023
Protection against Pythium and FusariumThe antibiotics dilute the growth of pathogenic fungi and bacteria . For example , Pythium can not develop when Lalstop K61 is already evolve on the roots of your crop .
The right - paw side of the image below shows a Petri dish full of Pythium , while the odd - helping hand side shows a Petri dish where Lalstop K61 has been preventively applied . In the right-hand Petri dish , you’re able to see that Pythium has developed over the entire Petri peach ( a large snowy haze ) . In the left Petri dish , it can be seen that the preventive lotion of Lalstop K61 distinctly inhibit Pythium developing . The green pointer indicate the Pythium - complimentary geographical zone . When Lalstop K61 is preventively present on the root of your crop , it provides a similar Pythium - innocent geographical zone there .
The on-line lecture on 4 May will show the effect on Fusarium in add-on to the effect on Pythium .
Improved root developmentIn addition to antibiotics , Lalstop K61 also produces auxin . auxin are internal secretion that stimulate root exploitation . Thus , the crop also develops more stem , improving the vitality of the crop . Since Pythium and Fusarium are impuissance parasites , the improved root ontogenesis and thus ameliorate resiliency also indirectly provides additional trade protection against these soil - borne fungi .
Thursday 27 December 2024 at 15:00 one can watch online how Lalstop K61 takes on Pythium and Fusarium in the ring ( Petri looker ) . It will last about half an hour . To watch this send an e-mail to Aukje Veldstra ( [ e-mail protected ] ) or Frederike Menage ( [ email protected ] ) .
