Abstract/Contents: | "Serenade TM WP is a new novel biofungicide with a broad spectrum of activity against fungal and bacterial diseases. The active ingredient in Serenade is QST 713 strain of Bacillus subtilis. Serenade WP has demonstrated a high level of efficacy against downy mildew and powdery mildew on vegetables, fruit and ornamental crops. Serenade has also shown great potential against diseases of turf and peanuts. The mechanism underlining the high level of control of two diseases was investigated using Scanning Electronic Microscopy (SEM). The two diseases evaluated were powdery mildew on squash (Erysiphe spp.) and powdery mildew on grape (Unicinula spp.). Treated leaf samples were freshly frozen with nitrogen and sputter-coated with golf prior to SEM examination. The results indicated that the QST 713 strain of Bacillus subtilus was able to inhibit infection by three distinct mechanisms: 1) direct invasion and destruction of the fungal germination appressorium, 2) spore germination inhibition and 3) providing a physical barrier to establishment of the pathogen on the leaf surface." |
